A great love affair is about to come to an end. That's right, folks, the Grasshopper's very favorite shorts of all time....the jean overalls...are on their last leg.
These are the overalls that I have to defend to everyone I know because they are always made fun of (people say that they make me look like a country bumpkin...HELLO! I AM ONE!). These are the overalls that I can wear on my fat and skinny days and never have to worry about love handles, peeking crack, or anything squeezing me like a sausage casing. These are the overalls that have traveled with me to ten different countries, AND the overalls that provide enough pockets to carry EVERYTHING you could ever need...including the front breast pocket that is deep enough to not have to worry about someone stealing your passport out of it.
I love my overalls and I am truly very sad that sometime within the coming weeks, I'm going to have to get rid of them due to major wear/holes in places I can't mention on a family friendly blog such as this one.
I'm madly trying to think of ways that I can patch all of the holes and not look like a complete bum/transient. Really. So sad.

I had a favorite pair of overalls once, too, and HUSBAND LAZAR made me throw them out because he HATED them. They were my FAVORITE outfit and, as you can probably tell from my OVERUSE of ALLCAPS, I still haven't recovered from this traumatic incident. Sigh.
I can sympathize with your plight. I have a white, long-sleeved shirt that I love sleeping in. But g/f wants me to throw it out. The only way that is happening is if one of the sleeves magically rips off.
YES, YES, YES!!! I see that you understand the pain. Fortunately for me, Husband did not try to make me get rid of anything. Of course, I did make husband get rid of some ugly sandals that he used to wear. I bought him some fashionable flip flops (to match my own) and now he is right in fashion again. He is so lucky to have a wife like me.
