我每天的襪子表演讓我的妻子笑得很開心

我每天的襪子表演讓我的妻子笑得很開心

This little chimp lived quietly on our bed for over a decade. It was the first gift our son bought for us. The quarantine had been such a drag that I decided to try to cheer her up by hiding Socky under some pillows with just his head showing. Not only did it make her chuckle, it made me feel better too.

這只小猩猩在我們的床上安靜地生活了十多年。這是我們兒子給我們買的第一件禮物。隔離是如此的無聊，我決定試著讓她高興起來，把襪子藏在一些枕頭下面，只露出他的頭。這不僅讓她笑了起來，也讓我感覺好多了。

I kept it up for about a week, but eventually ran out of hiding places. Still wanting to keep her grinning, I realized I had to get creative. And that is how this daily sock monkey melodrama started. There are now well over 100 episodes.

我堅持了大約一個星期，但最終還是跑出了藏身之處。我還想讓她繼續(xù)笑，于是我意識到我必須有創(chuàng)意。這就是這部每天上演的襪子猴鬧劇的開始?，F(xiàn)在已經(jīng)有100多集了。

I get ideas by conjuring up random words to see if they lead to anything, usually while doing menial tasks like exercising or showering. And I’ve been at this long enough that Socky is now a constant part of my thoughts, so that when I look at magazines, social media, the physical world around me, I’m always searching for inspiration for the next day.

我經(jīng)常在做一些瑣碎的事情，比如鍛煉或洗澡的時候，通過想象一些隨機(jī)的單詞來尋找靈感，看看它們是否能引出什么。我已經(jīng)做了這么久，soky已經(jīng)成為我腦海中揮之不去的一部分，所以當(dāng)我瀏覽雜志、社交媒體和我周圍的現(xiàn)實(shí)世界時，我總是在為第二天尋找靈感。

I feel that every skill I’ve ever acquired has been leading to this. That includes my advertising career, a watercolor class, skill with power tools (yes, Socky sometimes requires them), and the knots and fishing line I use as a fisherman (to hang things from the ceiling!). It’s all vital for putting on this show, where, for Socky, all the bed’s a stage and whatever’s lying around the house, the players.

我覺得我學(xué)到的每一項技能都導(dǎo)致了這一點(diǎn)。這包括我的廣告職業(yè)，水彩畫課程，電動工具的技能(是的，襪子有時需要它們)，以及我作為漁民使用的結(jié)和釣魚線(掛東西在天花板上!)這對上演這場表演至關(guān)重要，對Socky來說，所有的床都是舞臺，房子周圍的東西都是演員。

I sincerely hope Socky makes you smile too.

我真誠地希望soky也能讓你微笑。
