Meatless Man’s New Clothes

Days 314 & 315

Remember how I had to get a new suit a few months back?

Well, it only stood to reason that if a suit I bought just over a year ago was that loose on me then my regular clothes would be as well. And they soooooo were:

I donated them all to the Salvation Army. Just look at those piles of old clothes!

Hmmmm…what was I supposed to do with all that empty drawer space?

Why get some new threads of course!

And so in late June I went to Old Navy and Target:

And got new shirts and new pants that actually fit!!!!!

See?

It feels good to be trim and now it my clothes fit better too!

Talk to you soon!

Day 103

I currently have the wallet of an eighth grade boy.

No—you don’t understand. I didn’t mug an actual eighth grade boy. The wallet is mine and I bought it fair and square with my own money.

It’s just that it’s a fabric wallet that is held closed by Velcro. It doesn’t look as mature as leather wallets do, or hold as much as one, but I decided to go with a Velcro wallet over a leather one just the same.

Standing in front of the wallet rack at my local Target a few weeks ago, I glimpsed many leather wallets that would do all the great things a first-class wallet is supposed to; carry cash, hold ATM cards, display pictures of your sister’s kids and ultimately fold up nicely to fit in your pocket.

Instead, I chose a Velcro wallet that doesn’t do all the above things as well. It just felt too Hannibal Lecter to get one made out of animal hide. I am not sure I feel the need to have animals killed just so I can have their skins contain my pocket change. Isn’t that a bit ghoulish?

Maybe that’s just me.

I try to avoid leather products where I can. Never have I truly understood the appeal of a leather jacket or a fine leather car interior. Some people do. I don’t blame them. That’s their choice.

And a Velcro wallet is my choice.

Talk to you soon.
