The day of my interview for that Career Services job, I wore my black silk brocade suit. It was about 98 degrees outside. I walked to lunch, sweating like a maniac. I went to buy some black socks and a belt, because I left my black belt in my black pinstripe pants at the Moviegasm, and my black socks have disappeared. I wound up wearing white socks with a black suit and I felt like an idiot. That was also the morning I found out my neck had outgrown another white shirt, so I interviewed tie-less (and looked dashing anyway)

I stopped in Urban Outfitters, because that's where guys buy dress socks, right? So I found some socks. And a belt. I'm about to buy those, but why did I need them at all? It was HOT. They had these low slung, boot-cut jeans on sale. I decided to try on a pair.

The salesgirl gave me this pitying look that said, "if you split the ass out of those jeans, you own them." I pulled them on. They got tight around my calves. Screw you salesgirl. I shoehorned my ass into the pants. There was about a 5 inch gap between the buttons. This, I thought, was a lost cause.

I tried to button the jeans, just to get a laugh. Lo and behold, they buttoned easily! Room to spare! Apparently, the younger set doesn't tuck their guts into the waistband. No, they cinch their pants right atop the hip bones, where men don't tend to collect fat. It's good that I didn't inherit teh big booty genetics though, or this would have been over before it started.

The downside to my new jeans - I really can't tuck any flab into the jeans. no hiding. I look in the mirror, see the overhang, and shout "Inconceivable!" like the guy in Princess Bride. ("You keep saying that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.") I've been off my bike for way too long, and I need to develop upper body strength. Part of my rehab is continued exercise and stretching. And I'm vain. So I'm going to get my bike overhauled and start riding again, and join a gym. I hear good things about the 24-hour Fitness on 183.

I didn't get the job BTW. Others will come.
