Day 45: Too Big for My Britches

Okay, I'm not really too big for my britches, but my britches are getting too big for me!  Yippee!
I put on my favorite Eileen Fisher pants today only to realize, they're way too big now.  These pants were a bit baggy to begin with - style wise, not fit - but now I could just pull them down with a quick tug!

These pants are beautiful and comfortable.  I hate that they don't fit me anymore!  Oh, and just in case you're wondering, I look nothing like the woman above in the pants!

However, there is a funny part to this story.  I was showing off to one of my co-workers "Look at my pants - they're too big - aren't I great", etc., etc. :-)   So she says to me, you need to take them off and burn them!  I had to laugh, really, burn them.  I'm sure that would be fun and ritualistic, but come on, I'm not made of money.  

Shows the difference between someone who's got money ... and someone who doesn't!  I figure I can get more wear out of all of my clothes by taking them to the tailor and having them altered.  Most of my pants are too big in the waist right now, so some of my favorites will be altered and the rest will be donated, not burned!
