Let me set the stage for you. It’s a beautiful one. It’s a Friday, happiest day of the work week, and I’ve been plodding away at my desk for well over an hour, when I get up and my friend points out to me that I have a hole in my pants. Not just a little hole either, a whole the size of my pocket, which at some point in the morning has decided to detach itself from the rest of my pants. Embarrassing? Yes. But it gets better. I don’t have house keys with me so I can go home and change. Why you ask? Because I’ve given them to Joey, whose key broke the night before, so he can get a key cut when he’s done work. So what do I do? I go down to the mall to buy new pants. I know, I know, you’re thinking, why are you complaining about having to go shopping? Well, I’m complaining because the mall didn’t open for another half an hour after I got there (keep in mind, I’m supposed to be working, and it’s Friday). So I sat in the car and waited. When the mall finally opened, it was less of a shopping trip and more of a “how can I hide my ass while trying to get pants” trip. So I bought an outfit. All the while holding my emergency sweater down over the GIANT hole in the back of my pants. Adding to my heaps of embarrassment, I had to ask the clerk if I could change into the outfit at the store. And I think she saw my underwear.
