I now have indisputable proof that women are crazy.
So I'm looking forward to the fall, looking forward to new classes and my favorite cozy sweaters. When you can wear your jeans and NOT sweat.
But wait a minute, I NEED new jeans. Now, if you've seen my closet chock full of jeans you may question my need for yet another pair. The answer is easy. I only have one pair that fits correctly. I have about 5 other pairs that are too long in the crotch (weird problem) or too long in the leg or too big everywhere.
A rational mind may ask why I would continue to buy pairs of jeans that do not fit correctly. In short these are some of the reasons: I did not know I could wear petite jeans. I have one pair, the pair that really fits well, of petite jeans. I had just discovered petite jeans recently. I do not really consider myself short, especially compared to other woman I know. Let's see. I have 2 pairs of jeans that fit except on the leg, they're a bit long. However, I can wear them with heels. Which I believe was the rational when I bought them. "I can wear them with boots!" I thought in the dressing room. However, not to class. I refuse to wear heels on campus. I don't understand women who do, but that's fodder for another posting. I also bought some jeans because they were on clearance. Yes, regardless of how well or not they fit; I bought at least 2 pairs of jeans because they were about 10 bucks. Women will buy anything on sale. I don't know why, but they will. My Godmother has recently purchased a paper shredder because it was on sale. Never mind the other three that she already has. Nevertheless, back to the denim. My reasoning being was that I could alter them some how. I did alter one pair; cutting the bottoms and letting them fray. Now this was perfectly acceptable to wear to a class when one is a theatre major. However, most of the girls in HESP look like they've just stepped out of a GAP or Abercrombie ad. So frayed jeans don't necessarily fit in. However, the thing to do this fall seems to be destroying your jeans. So I may get to wear them after all. I think that just leaves one more pair that is too long. I called my mom and she has promised to hem them. Now, I have recently tried on all my pairs of jeans. The first pair I tried on I bet I haven't worn for a year. I have NO idea why I haven't worn them. So I try them on, they fit like a glove. They were so comfortable. The denim was soo soft.
Since I've now gone through my entire closet of jeans, I've determined that I no longer need any more. This is kind of a bummer, because I like shopping. At least there is proof that women are insane (like we needed anymore).
