Can I just tell you about my terrible morning earlier this week? I was all ready to walk out the door when I looked down and realized there was a stain on the bright blue pants I was wearing. Like, a pretty obvious one. Right above the knee. Not gonna lie, I very seriously considered going to work anyway and just hoping no one noticed. But I noticed, and I knew it would drive me crazy every time I looked down at my lap.

So I decided to at least take a shot at cleaning up my act. And by act I mean pants. I went to the bathroom and took soap and water to my leg, but of course then I just had a giant wet spot. So I grabbed the hair dryer. Yes, this story just gets classier and classier. I had used too much soap, so basically I made the whole situation worse. I probably could have gotten away with the original stain, but not when that stain had a big discolored soap circle around it. It was like a Venn diagram of shame.

I had no choice but to change my bottoms. I was so pissed that I just grabbed these jeans even though it was a Monday. They don’t really look like jeans so I figured I could pass for professional. It’s a good thing I’m not a courtroom lawyer. Can you imagine my opening statement? “OK, jury, my client is totally innocent but first let me tell you about my pants.”

The day after this dress came in the mail, I turned on the local news and the anchor was wearing it. That anchor is pregnant with twins. Let’s just say the dress was working hard. For the record, this is not a maternity dress, and the only twins in this belly are a bagel and a scoop of ice cream. I can’t afford to have real kids because I spend all my money at Ann Taylor.
