Today at work

Two-thirds of the way through my shift, I split my pants.

Writing either my very sort report sheet or the one paragraph fic-editing I did, I hurt my right wrist. That is my mousing hand. D:

I used to split my pants with some regularity.

(This was because we could not always afford new pants as I was growing up.)

It really ruins your day. :(

I am amazed I did not split my pants more growing up, since I mostly wore hand-me-downs and second-hand bin stuff, and until 12th grade pretty much had a standard uniform of too-tight jeans + baggy man's sweatshirt/sweater/flannel. (Also, I feel no guilt for borrowing my dad's shirts all those/these years, since he kept wearing my jeans to work. *facepalm*)

I suppose they lasted pretty long for $7 tuxedo pants. Of course, at that price, I originally bought two pair, and the other pair blew this winter, split in sort of the same spot, but a different, much more noticeable direction.

Good thing I've suddenly amassed a lot of laundry change, since I'm now down to one pair of pants for work. ._.;
