Skinny Jeans

A Facebook friend of mine posted this a while back and it made me laugh!;

I didn’t know that skinny jeans weren’t a thing anymore but I laughed as I thought of a student of mine back when they just got big. She had already known that purple was my favorite color and told me that I should wear a purple sweater and skinny jeans and that would be really cute!

I remember smiling at her when she told me that and she said it to me a couple more times. It was the third time that I looked at her and told her that, “Honey, in order to wear skinny jeans, you have to be skinny!“. I was teaching from a manual wheelchair then and I told her that it may not look like it because I am sitting down but I have LOTS of junk in my trunk! She laughed at that and I think I got a, “No, Miss!”

I did think of her when I wore a purple sweater and my purple chucks on a date even though I was wearing boot cut jeans. I saw this post on Twitter not too long ago and figured that I should write this post today because it is the final Saturday thatI will be 38!;

I also thought of that student after reading this tweet. I don’t remember her name but I can still see her face.
