Today is packing day, so that means the final thinning of my closet. I knew I was going to end up tossing most of my khakis because they are just too damn short for me (34x36 no longer works). But the surprising thing was not that they were almost all too short, but that the only pair that fit was because of its waist (38x38)!
Yes, I have gained weight in my thighs and ass. My wonderful Nordstrom pants? Slightly too tight in the waist and definitely too tight in the thighs. They cost enough I am going to see if I can't get a tailor to fix them, but I am not holding my breath.
This puts a damper on my pants situation. I have three pairs of jeans that I bought in Boise while visiting my brother (one pair 34x38, rest 36x38). One pair of Dockers (38x38) that are a a dark olive green. And I have my wool Diesel pants that I bought with Anna in Old Town Pasadena way back when.
Those wool pants don't have the best length, but they are not bad either. Real issue with them is that the pockets are extremely shallow; I have had my phone fall out of them several times. That's why I bought a phone clip when I was with Gabe; no more worrying about my phone falling out of my nice pants. But I am not going to use the clip all the time, only when I am wearing pants where I think my phone might fall out.
