Happy Birthday Beatrice Wood! Portrait by William Tony Cunha
In a fitting marker of our relationship, Lisa and I had our first date on Labor Day. Four months later, on January 14, her ex-girlfriend called to check in on me. It was Lisa’s birthday. The dismissiveness with which I received the message was naïve, arrogant, and a mistake I will never make again. I thought her warning that Lisa is “difficult on her birthday” was cute...another mistake I will never make again. I had bought Lisa 3 pairs of cashmere socks. It was a practical gift woven with a hint of luxury. I was about to learn the hard way that, no matter how soft they are, feet coverings are not Lisa’s love language.
March 3 was Beatrice Wood’s birthday. Because I never miss a chance to not learn a lesson, we are going to celebrate with socks. With every purchase of $50 or more, we will send you a free pair of Kirsten Stoltmann socks*. These stockings come in two love languages, “Love” and “F*ck”, we will choose which one you deserve.
