Every time you see him wearing tracksuit bottoms tear them off him.

this may give him the wrong idea

Threaten to buy him a utilikilt.

*guffaw*

actually that might be a nice compromise. I think it would be more attractive than tracksuit bottoms and he might go for that what with having pockets to store all his gadgets.

Yes!
Although in Britain tis a half-hope, but we have been promised a freakishly long hot summer. I am hoping for the appearance of fetching shorts.

I snore, and can recommend Boots homeopathic snoring remedy (a throat spray used before bedtime) as a counter.

I can vouch for the fact that it reduces snoring volume by about 50 per cent, which for me is usually quiet enough to continue sleeping through.

However, I fear as a couple we illustrate both of your dislikes - I don't exectly wear tracksuit bottoms at home, but I often like a hot bath in the early evening, after which it seems strange to get dressed again so I tend to put pyjamas on. I often worry that this is making me domesticated and therefore unappealing to Mister Powers. BUT I still do it. Luckily I have some quite cute pyjamas, and I think the answer for me is to invest in further cute ones for the summer.

I'm not sure how to counter the tracksuit bottoms sensitively - unless perhaps you buy him something that's inbetween your ideal and his. A sarong? I would actually recommend going for the non-sensitive but entirely healthy route; I'd front it out here and now. Niggles can grow into grounds for divorce frighteningly easily!

I do this too :) And I don't loathe all tracksuit bottoms and pjs, honestly. :) I even *gasp* have some of my own that I wear, because they're cute and they suit my figure so they actually look good [as much as it's possible for trousers to do on unslender thighs].

Yep, and therein is the key. Cute pyjamas = very, very good. Utterly shapeless clothes that just look manky = a Transgression.

buy him something that's inbetween your ideal and his. A sarong?

casaubon has suggested utilikilts which might do the trick as it would allow him enough pockets to store his gadgets and wouldn't look heinous on him as it would show off nicely his muscular calves.

I would actually recommend ( ... )

Fussy but fair, which may be the finest combinations of traits known to Mars. ;)

good use of it for you as a lawyer-in-training.

Poke him so he turns over? Nasal strips from boots?

Strap apples to his back so he must lay on his side?

Useful, i know.

rainsinger April 7 2005, 15:28:01 UTC
I think the apples idea may work on more than one level, as then i could usefully just nibble them if i get heartburn in the night.

snoring is not too bad because i'm getting used to it, and he stops if i move/make a noise [or sigh, if he snores hard enough to wake himself].

but the tracksuit bottoms! *weeps*

Trackie bottoms are better than flip-flops though.

rainsinger April 7 2005, 19:28:18 UTC
honestly, i wouldn't mind flip flops [unless they are worn over socks, which is just WRONG and only excusable if it's a matter of hypothermia] as I think flip flops are quite funky and fun.
