...and to think I was once a 2xl...

I was folding laundry and looked at a pair of pants trying to decide if they were my new ones or belonged to my seventeen year old daughter. So I tried them on. They fit. But wait, now that I thought of it, these were extra long and the ones I had bought were a bit short in the leg. I looked at the size. Fourteen? No way!

I went to the closet and brought out an old pair of corduroy jeans that were my "skinny pants" back in the mid nineties and looked at the tag. Size 14. I tried them on. They fit.

I went in and asked my daughter what size jeans she wears. Size 14.

I said "Me too."

Can I have a woot?
