Do You Enjoy Summer Fridays? (Best Of, Vol. 17)

July 30th 2010 in Best Of: Loose Threads

Hey Sock Heads, hope everyone is enjoying the summer thus far. I know I’ve been enjoying these summer Fridays, but I checked in today real quick for my monthly recap of some of my most memorable posts from the Sock Drawer (aka archives).

Before I get into that, I want to remind folks that the Official Naked With Socks On Online Store is up and running so CLICK HERE cop all the NWSO T-shirts, thongs, boy shorts, buttons and stickers your heart desires. Keeping checking back as I’ll be adding new pieces from time to time.

As always, the door is open for reader relationship questions and submissions for guest blogs. I still need married/divorced/engaged folks to write in for the Why I Got Married series. Since I’m not married I can’t write those, and we single folks would love to hear the realities of married life. But if you’ve just got questions, ideas or suggestions feel free to hit me up via email CLICK HERE. Just be patient as it does take me a little while to get to everything in my inbox but I will eventually. I promise.

Don’t forget I recently joined FormSpring as well, so you can CLICK HERE to ask me anything. If not, you can always reach me on Twitter @NakedWithSocks, or hit me on MySpace and BlackPlanet. There’s also the NWSO FaceBook fan page and a blog network page for you to stay connected. Don’t forget you can subscribe to the blog’s email alerts HERE.

Feel free to hit me up on any or all of those pages, just be sure to introduce yourself as a reader/sock head by sending a quick note with your friend request to avoid going through my tedious screening process. Anyway, without further ado, enjoy Loose Threads, Vol. 17 (December ’09).

Sincerely yours,

NWSO

    I feel like you don't post as much of you're own writing as you use to and these make me miss it.. especially your wet wednesday

      You mean back when I didn't have a job and wasn't trying to do a book? Yeah, sorry, life is type hectic. Like I just told R.E.D. in another post, even though my name might not be at the top of some of the posts I'm still editing them and adding NWSO-isms along the way, so I'm still here making it do what it do. Gotta remember NWSO is just one man so I appreciate the submissions because sometimes it's either that or no posts at all for that day :( [polldaddy 3545770 http://answers.polldaddy.com/poll/3545770/ polldaddy]

        I'd rather have a really good (let me repeat that, really good…lol) guest post than no post at all. I mean if you can make that happen then its much appreciated. I love your writing but I've also come to find some really great writers through guest posts on NWSO. So if I can have both then that would be the best possible outcome.

        • At 2010.07.30 19:12, NWSO said:

          yourself included in that list of great writers, right? lol

            of course…lucky i didnt shamelessly plug my blog lol

              So I just answered you on the prior post and now I can't even follow it. OK the new site is a little confusing in terms of following the comments but I think my post yest. was just too long. We know you are busy and of course we like guest writers, like Ronnie, but take it as a compliment that we miss you. Do your thing, I know how it is when not one more damn morsel can fit on your life's plate, b/c it is just too full.

                What do you mean by "follow?" Don't you just click the link that says comment here in the email alert… We have such a turbulent relationship R.E.D. lol

                But as for the long comment thing, I don't know, I did a test comment that was super long—like a blog's length—and it went through fine. I deleted it afterwards. I live in a Mac world so it may be a small glitch for certain folks on certain systems. ***Shrugs*** Will still explore the issue to the best of my ability.

                I'll take the compliment, just hate feeling guilty for doing my best. Sometimes I feel like I painted myself into a corner in a house with glass walls….

                Good thing I got a glass cutter in my back pocket. ha!

                  Oh, I meant to bring this to your attention: I’ve not been seeing the follow up e-mail option since this new set up. Anytime there are changes, I go through this. What’s up with that? lol

                  • At 2010.07.31 03:48, NWSO said:

                    Well, on my screen it's right below at the bottom of the message box, to the left of the "submit commeht" buton. Should see a scroll down bar next to "subscribe to" you can choose whether to get replies to ALL future comments or just comments to you. Think that means like now, when i hit the reply button.

                    I broke down all this when i did the post about the new features. Are you unable to see that scroll down?

                      Then, neither of those two works. I've chosen "replies" and "all new comments" before and no luck

                      • At 2010.07.31 04:04, NWSO said:

                        Aiight, I'm subscribed to all comments by default (I get them all LOL) so no way of knowing that. thanx for heads up. Wonder if it's a just you thing again or universal

                          Considering I'm the only one bringing that up, I guess it's a me thing. No biggie, one.

                            and here I am, thinking that our relationship is so stable, lololol!! listen, don't worry about the reply thing, I will figure it out. this is likely secondary to my not- so- superb computer skills. You kinda did do this to yourself..you have gotten us accostomed to one thing I guess, so it's abnormal when we don't get that. Listen, take it easy on yourself, life shouldn't be this stressful, and remember you just can't please everybody and sometimes you just have to ignore certain comments, mine included. Do your best, at the end of the day, you should sleep comfortably with that thought, once u know you did just that. The 5:6 wasn't too bad (who the hell says 5:6 anyway?). You know at the last event there were too many women and as a single woman I don't like the notion of looking 'thirsty.' I wonder if you r feeling me on this?. but really u cannot feel me, you r not a single woman..leaving now to speak to another female about the 'thirsty' concept….

                              last event was Paul's doing, I was merely a panelist. Thanx for your understanding

                                Perhaps I've offended you, I apologize, it was not your event, I won't bring it up again. See you Monday.

                                  We didn’t break up because of cheating. Our relationship was perfect until that fateful Sunday morning phone call.

                                  “I’m locked up,” he quipped, remorsefully.

                                  I didn’t know whether to cry or scream.

                                  What happened? Are you alright? What happened? Well, whose stuff was it? It wasn’t yours right? What do you need me to do?

                                  This was supposed to go up first thing in the morning last Tuesday as part of my weekly post for MadameNoire, but my editors got caught up at the office and didn’t publish what I submitted until late that afternoon. Although still mine, my words were streamlined considerably in the final piece.
