Showerthought: I counted my sock-first vs shoe-first mornings for 30 days and the number shocked me

So I kept a little tally on my phone for 30 days straight, just marking S for sock first and B for barefoot into shoe. I figured it would be pretty even, but it came out 27 days sock first and only 3 days going straight into the shoes. Those 3 days were all rushed mornings before 7am, which tells me speed is the only thing that flips my habit. My wife thinks tallying this is ridiculous, but she was the one who pointed out I also put my left shoe on first every single time. Now I'm curious if the sock thing is connected to the left foot thing or if they're totally separate habits. Has anyone else tracked their morning order and found a number that weird?
