Have you ever had one of those mornings when you just weren’t really paying attention to what you were doing while you were getting ready for work? I have had mornings when I left home without my glasses and managed to make it a mile before realizing that everything was blurry. But, I have never had an experience as bad as the morning I put on pants that had shrunk drastically (that’s what we’re going to go with). So here I am on my way to work and I am starting to notice that my mid section is beginning to ache pretty bad and I realize that these pants are trying to kill me. While at work I figure I can make it through the day somehow until I hear that we have a big meeting to go to. I started to realize that there is no way I was going to be any use at this meeting, because I can’t seem to think of anything other than the psychotic python around my waist that is slowly trying to separate my trunk from my lower extremities. Fortunately for me there is a mall fairly close to my office and I had enough time to get to the mall, buy a new pair of pants, and change into the new, much more comfortable, pants and get back to the office in time to make the meeting. Funny thing is, that I did it so that I wouldn’t focus on the pants during the meeting, and yet I couldn’t stop thinking about how glad I was to be out of those cotton constrictors. Oh well, the meeting went just fine, I think.
