Not that anyone really cares except for me, but I just bought my first pair of jeans in over a decade. Back when I was a teenager I hated jeans. I quickly progressed into khakis and cords (before they were cool, obviously). And I’ve basically stayed in khakis and dress pants ever since. Because I hated jeans. With a passion.
Uncomfortable, abrasive, unstylish.
But, over the last few months /years I’ve found some friends wearing jeans that I knew I’d wear if they were comfortable. Because, at least, they were stylish.
Well, today was “shopping day” before my trip down to California, and I picked up a couple of pair of jeans, along with loads of others tuff. So, apparently, my wife is slightly nervous about my fidelity once I’m gone.
Good times
Seriously though, it’s always fun to go out and spend 400-500$ on clothes. I nabbed 4 pairs of pants, 2 sweaters, 2 other shirts, 2 belts (to go with new jeans) and 2 pairs of shoes (to go with new jeans).
I think I’ll be bordering on metrosexual when I’m down there. Which, I hear, is wholly appropriate. When in Rome…

I’m just like you, I never wear jeans. I’m always in khaki’s. But I did buy a pair this summer just so I could have one. I probably wear them once every one or two months.

How can you NOT wear jeans? I wear ‘em every day. The only exception is cargo pants or shorts. Then again, I only dress up for job interviews, funerals, and weddings
