Kutsushita

                                                             socks:
                                                                         kutsushita
                                                                        ShoesUnder

I was just noticing the other day that I could use a new pair of shoes.

That got me thinking about the word "shoes":  

This in turn got me thinking about the Japanese word "socks".  I really like the word despite how expensive socks can get sometimes.
I like it because it's logical.  kutsu means 'shoes'.
                                          shita   means 'down' or 'under'.

Together, kutsushita  means 'socks'.

Then, all of a sudden, I got depressed.  Because I just remembered, I need some more of those as well.
