NSV... I think

I'm not sure if I should be flattered or insulted... so I'm going to go with chalking up a comment made at work to me as a compliment.

Was coming back from a coworker's birthday luncheon... and after having drank wayyyyyy too much iced tea, I was having to do the "if you know what's good for you, you'll get out of my way for a human break" beeline to the women's room. Well even after cinching my belt to its tightest setting, my jeans have a tendency to um... slide, so I was also doing an odd "yank and dash" maneuver as I passed by one of the cleaning ladies. She said something that I didn't catch, so she decided she needed to hang out until I had finished with my visit.

As I was coming out of the ladies room, she announces that the cleaning team have decided to take up a collection so that I can get me "some britches that will stay up". I just did a semi-smile and said I was hoping to go shopping soon. I know I should get some new jeans, but I'm in between sizes and with my goals... well I don't want to buy something that I'm hoping to surpass before the month's out. At the very least I'll be looking for a new belt this weekend...
