penmageA very small reason this time. Just read this on his blog:
The missing sock has not yet turned up. I am suspicious. How far can it have gone? It was black, you know. Black socks don't just fade into the background. (Not unless the background's black, and the flat I'm in is very light-brown-wooden-floors-and-white. No black anywhere.) And if socks set off to seek their fortune or something, why don't they do it in pairs? Why alert us to their mysteries like this?

Maybe it's because socks come into creation mated, so eventually they decide they need to strike it out on their own, and one goes off a-journeying.
