the title

Maybe an explanation of the title of this blog is at place...

A couple of weeks ago we had a visitor from the headquarter in Brussel at work. And as they all do there, he was wearing a suit, a nice and -obviously expensive - black one. He was wearing black shoes underneath it and white socks. Seven people pointed out to me that he was wearing white socks, I only noticed after staring at his feet for a few minutes, because to me it wasn't all that obvious. However, I am barely 5ft 2", which means I'm nearly at eyelevel with the 6ft 4" man, and way smaller than all the people who pointed out his socks... That's when I realised I must be looking at the world in frog perspection, and decided on this title!

I usually take my breaks with men measuring up to 7ft (ok, he's the tallest, the others are about 6ft 2", 6ft 3", but still), and my friend and colleague Sabrina is exactly as tall as I am, so if the two of us join those giants during break it's like we're Snowwhite's dwarves! ;-p

So, now you know, in case you were wondering.

7 feet as in 2 metres 15? ooookay...

Who are you working with? The Belgian national basketball team?

Yeah, white socks seem to be the worst fashion faux pas there is. Which is really funny, if you consider they were the coolest thing in the 80s... ah, well. But shouldn't you have been the first to spot them then, seeing that you're so close to his feet?

LOL, as a matter of fact I am ;) just kidding... ok, maybe I exaggerated a bit... but still, they are way taller then I am ;), and one of them does measure up to 2metres 5, and others are over 1m90, which makes them seem like giants to me!

And about those white socks, that was my point, but I just don't seem to notice things like that
