My wife seriously (and nearly completely) pantsed me this
weekend!
I know I’ve addressed the topic of my pants on more than one
occasion during this season but indulge me if you will for one final
installment. As you may recall, I have
been steadily setting aside trousers that no longer fit with the intent of donating
them at the appropriate time. When I
left the house Saturday morning to do my four miles Renee stated that she would
be running some errands during that time including making a trip to Goodwill
for a drop off. I knew what she was
taking and gave my full and informed consent.
I had saved a lot of smaller pants over the years as I grew out of them with
the intent of one day being able to wear them again. I have worn them again, but I am not saving
them any longer as they are now too big.
I was told no fewer than four times last week by people around the
building that I needed to change to pants that fit. That’s advice that is really much better
received on the way down than on the way up (can I get an amen?). So, I’m now down to the last size of pants I
own that don’t bunch up with a belt or “self-pants” without one (which, as I
recall from Dress Code Jeopardy is a violation even more frowned upon than “leggin’s”). Next time someone suggests that I pull up my
big boy pants and deal with something I’m going to tell them no…, I don’t wear
big boy pants any more.
So will you be shopping soon?
ReplyDeleteI expect I will be. �� I wonder if Kohl's is having any sales. ;D

Rich, I would rather that you pull up your big boy pants than let them fall to the ground. It sounds like you have right-sized your pants. Now, you could use a good stiff belt.
