I think it's more than inseam length -- capris are supposed to hit you a certain place. Sure, some people go against that, but I think that's the premise. There's possibly also a tapering difference.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Why am I awake, and more imoprtantly, why do the warning notes for the pills I need to take soon tell me not to lie down for a half hour after taking them?

Capris are the work of the Devil.
Not only do I object to capris because they cut off my short legs in an unflattering manner, but just because they are short pants (therefore whimsical and fun), designers think they can use the most awful patterned fabric to make them. I saw a pair in a store last week - they were pique cotton with blue and purple orchids done in an Pucci-esque manner. They were hideous. I wouldn't want them within five miles of my ass.
I just saw one of my university tutors at the Farmers Market...he totally remembered me.

What is even happening?

Maybe they can cause acid reflux or something. Either my aunt or uncle take some sort of medication with the same restriction, but I don't remember the what of it. Darn. Nothing would make me want to lie down more.

It is annoying, especially since it is the only thing stopping me from going back to bed.
Maybe I'll go to hobee's, and then back to bed.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
A friend and I call capris "ass-embiggening pants" because they have that effect on us. Thjose with longer legs and slimmer hips than I can look great in them, though.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I have longish legs and ginormous hips, but I like cropped pants as long as they're not tapered. The wide-leg and boot-cut styles work great.

Huh... talking knitting when I am otherwise occupied! I'm working on a lacy scarf in mohair, which has been rather frustrating, until I worked out how to arrange the stitch markers so that I don't lose my place. Third try's the charm! It'll be all gothy and lacey when it's done.

When did they start having ads in Amazon's gold box? They are really annoying.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
They're opening up a knitting store a mile or two down the street from my apartment, right across from the "tea merchant" and next door to the new old-fashioned ice cream parlor. I love that Forest Park's commercial strip is growing, but I don't have the cash to keep up, damnit!
