Stick a fork in me... by The Other Kim
I'm done. With the Sock Wars, that is. Yes, my demise arrived yesterday while I was at the UCLA-WSU football game. Actually, it was a phone call during our pregame concert that brought the bad news. The conversation went thusly: "Hello?" "I think you're done."
