365: Day 1

Lindz told me about this app for the iphone where you take a picture each day that exemplifies your day and compile them into a flickr set for the year.  Figured I'd do something of the same sort of thing but with my trusty blackberry.  (This was after I told her my photoset would be completely boring and look like, coffee, coffee, coffee, coffee, coffee, bed, church.)

So, with no further ado, here's today.  It was this sort of a day all day long, physically and emotionally.  Sunshine in one corner, roiling brooding tempest of clouds in the other.   Am hoping for smooth sailing and calm harbours tomorrow.  :)

5 Average my ass.

Getting dressed this morning I checked the label on my jeans, since I have 2 pairs of the same jeans.  The first is a 1-2 pair from days long ago.  I can still fit in them, on a skinny day.  Today was...not a skinny day.  The other pair is a size five.  Damn but they're comfortable.

Which was when I read it.  The label.  It said: 5 Average.

Five average my ass.  I don't know if I was just in a phenomenally good mood this morning or not, but the tag was downright insulting. I know it's referring to leg length. But it's just...I don't consider my legs average.  They're fine.  The label should read 5 Fine. 

Now admittedly I have jeans from Kohls, which is like, the tim hortons or dunkin donuts of jeans stores.  They're not a set of top dollar designer starbucks jeans.  I didn't pay money for the label, still, can't a gal get a smidge of self esteem from her jeans?  Seriously, 5 Average? 

Just sayin'.
