Jeans look like crap on me, but I wear them anyway.
They look fine on me, but I hate the way they feel so I never wear them.
For some reason, this makes my mother nervous. She's been known to scold me for dressing up in dressy dresses much too much, and when we went to Tahoe for my grandfather's memorial service she begged me to bring a pair of jeans. Which I didn't. She's also currently dissatisfied with my new Hec-sculpted haircut, as it's too short in the back and makes me look too butch. Do I get some kind of prize for being simultaneously intolerably butch and femme?
I love jeans 'cause they hold in the gut and show off the leg!
I get bored with my jeans because I love them so much and would happily wear them every day.
And isn't that a nice and internally consistent point of view?

That is quite a trick, JZ.

Heh. This makes me want to figure out what it says about me that I find jeans freaky and uncomfortable, but have no problems wearing corsets or girdles. Other than that I'm eccentric, I mean.

The only reason not all my pants are jeans is I have a terrible fear that the moment I get rid of all my business-casual-wear, I'll wind up in a job where I can't wear jeans. So I have a few pairs of black and grey pants (cut exactly like jeans, natch) just in case.
See, I've never worn a girdle or corset because they sound uncomfy and I'm all about comfy. Corsets sure look pretty, though. I'm also kind of blocky on top (no waist), so I'm not sure a corset would flatter me.

A properly-fitted corset is AMAZINGLY comfortable. Some girdles can be comfy, but they're a little more hit-or-miss.

Yes! This is why I don't understand the stretch/waistband-at-the-crotch trend. Completely defeats the purpose.
Can you take a mental-health sick day? I know it's not much, but sometimes a random day off can really help.
I did yesterday, and it did help. I think I just need several days off in a row.
Also, do you take classes over the summer? Maybe just your job and not school on top will feel like a break...?
I do. I will only be taking classes for 1/2 the summer term this summer, so I'll have all of July and most of August school-free. And I cannot wait.
ChiKat, if you're still around, do you have the names of any larger-sized consignment shops in the Chicago area?
I don't. If you find one, let me know.
Jeans. I do like them when I can find them to fit, but that's really difficult. I'm high-waisted, short legged and big tummied.
