Day 82
Counting it off like that, it doesn’t seem so long. It feels like forever though. If it weren’t for Mabel, I wouldn’t have even bothered to get out of bed today. She hopped up on the bed around 11am and poked at me and meowed at me until I got up.
Having no reason to get up in the morning makes it very hard to get up. If you have no where to go, you don’t even bother showering. On the show How I Met Your Mother Marshall’s underpants radius kept growing when he was jobless. I can understand how it happens. If you have no reason to get dressed, why bother. I don’t sit around in my underpants though. That’s kinda gross. I wear pajama bottoms. And the state of my pajama bottoms varies. I have the cute gnome pajama pants in pristine condition, then there are the cat footprint pajamas also in pristine condition. Those I wouldn’t mind being seen in. I’ll actually run outside with those on to pick up the Saturday Red Eye off the front porch. Then there are the purple paisley ones that seem to shrink each time I wash them. They were a bit long, now they’re like capri pants. I know I’m not getting any taller. I try to avoid those, cuz capri is just not my style. And the newer blue pajama bottoms that got ruined during a monthly incident. The stains are fading, but I only wear those when all other options are gone. And finally, the “Happy Breakfast” pajamas. These are just plain cotton, as opposed to the many pairs of flannel I own. And I’ve worn and washed them so much, plus they are at least 9 or 10 years old. They’ve got holes all over. But I really like them, and I haven’t seen them anywhere (I got them at Target back when Target still had cool stuff for fat girls). I actually stepped out of my apartment and into the hall in these to get the mail. And the guy across the hall saw me. I didn’t care. I bent and picked up my mail, hole in the ass and all… Yes, I wore underpants.
What’s your “Underpants Radius?” How far will you go either in your underwear or pajamas? Marshall actually went out for a hamburger in his underpants…. I haven’t reached that point yet.
