Time? No, I don't think so.

Is it time to retire these pants?


A few weeks ago I sewed in a new zipper (the white zipper, with the blue thread), since the original one utterly failed. 

Then today the zipper pull on the new zipper disappeared (I only noticed when I went to go to the bathroom), so I tied in a little bit of paracord. Red white and blue, baby! I'm so patriotic! It has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that these were the most functional materials I had on hand! Fuck yeah 'Murika! 

Time to get rid of the pants? Nah, I don't think so. I have this thing for repairing pants and shorts long after what most people would consider their useful life. We'll see if I get any really funny looks when I go to the Kroger later, but I doubt I will. It's amazing how little attention people pay.
