i dont think you can handle it... WOO!
eff
so i dragged my lazy butt outta bed, stumbled around my really really REALLY needs to be cleaned apartment and happened upon a pair of jeans. whatever, i dont even CARE if they're clean at this point, lets just get them on me so i can not be late to work... and with that, i threw on my shirt, pulled up my pants and...
wha? what are these?
i pull my pants back down, look at the tag....my....my gap.... jeans?...
my DARK gap jeans?.. my, no way...
...my Ultra Low Rise size X (yeah right like i'm about to tell you people my pant size!) going OUT dark gap jeans?!
oh my gawd, they... they FIT!??!
nuh-uh... nuh UH. shut up they do not omg they do.
shut UP. nuh-uh.
nuh-UH.
i seriously must've checked out my own ass for a good 5 minutes, no WAY was i expecting my skinny jeans to fit so well. these are the jeans that hang in the closet that i turn to every once in a while to gage where i'm at size-wise. that i bought at my thinnest when i was training for marathon #1 that got juuuuust too tight to wear in the off season. and now?
they fit! and they dont just fit, they fit GOOD. like i'll definitely be wearing these out to the bar this weekend good..... going shopping for a cute top- gettin' crazy with my hair- puttin' on some strappy SHOES- good.
they... i...
ok. you get the picture. my butt, these jeans... winning combo. not gunna lie!
(tee hee!)

Nothing better than a pair of great-fitting jeans. And *skinny* jeans at that!

Exactly Al...(although some guys think they are the same size they were in high school, they just wear them lower). I have a couple pair waiting in the wings. Might be a while until they leave the hanger, but it's the small goals that are usually the most rewarding

Even guys are allowed to get excited when skinny jeans fit. Another plus of running. Keep it up!

reminds me of the episode of sex and the city when miranda fit into her skinny jeans...and then hit the town in them and did quite well for herself :)(i have *several* pairs that i hope will fit me again if i do make it through one marathon training cycle!)
