Pass The Ammo

So everybody, let me tell you about how Erik ruined my 23rd Birthday.

Friday afternoon (right now), come home from work, all beat down and tired… to find three nifty presents on the couch for me. Woo hoo!!!

My birthday is actually tomarrow, so the wifey will only let me open one…. so temptuous! I want them all!!! I neeeeeed them all!!!! Nope. Only one. So I allow her to pick out the one I get. She decides to go with the new Levi 517 Bootcut Jeans. Nice! I needed em too. Mine are all beat down, and full o holes.

I’m not used to having other people by my jeans, so I was a little uneasy about its sizing, as I pulled it out the bag. Sure enough. It was a 34W and a 32L. Doh! I’m a 32W by 34L. So torturous. Because theres my favorite pants, all nice and new and I was unable to wear them. DANG it!

I know what yer thinkin. “Why don’t you just go change em out?” Great idea! Cept for these pants were just shipped up from Paso Robles, CA, by my buddy Erik. The reason for that is, Levi Strauss had stopped makin the bootcut jeans about a year ago. I guess Wrangler was beatin em out on the sales of cowboy jeans. But I hate Wranglers. They feel cheap. Their so-called “bootcut” won’t even fit over my boots nicely. Too tight. So when I sit down, they hike up. When I stand up… they stay up. It gets old pullin’ em down, everytime I stand up.

Whelp. Levi’s decided to bring the 517 bootcuts back. Only, now they’re made by our friends in the Dominican Republic. So now I gotta wear cheap 517’s. Dang it. But at least they’ll fit over my boot cuffs.

Well… Thanks for the attempt big guy.
