In which he wore Capri pants

I know I know…I’m so far behind writing these posts.

I’m up in Vermont right now and I’d hoped to write a few on the plane up here but a) we got up at 5:00 am and I was too sleepy and b) I was feeling a bit motion sick so I really couldn’t write.

I’m at a little gym called “Off the wall” trying to burn off some calories since I’ve been here less than 24 hours and I think I’ve already gained about 10 pounds.

Ooh heh… Adele just came on my music singing Skyfall which has nothing to do with anything but still…

So I wanted to tell you about something funny from last week so without further ado I’m going to do that. Last Tuesday I was out to dinner with a friend of mine when I heard from Kevin:

Me: hey, how was your workout?

Kevin: interesting

Me: interesting? How so?

Kevin: well, I was wearing your Capri pants…

And then I just about died laughing at the table.

Me: my Capri pants? … Which by the way, I just refer to as workout clothes and you might refer to as yoga pants.

Kevin: yeah, I was pulling on these pants and I couldn’t understand what they were so tight and I realized they were yours

Honestly folks, Kevin is 6’5″ and I was visualizing all of this. I suppose I should be happy at least that they were tight on him. How mortifying would that be if they fit him perfectly?

Me: that’s hilarious. How did that happen?

Kevin: I guess I thought they were my black shorts in the laundry hamper but they were your Capri pants.

Me: so did you leave?

Kevin: I was going to leave but I decided that I wanted to work out so I stayed the course.

By now I was laughing so hard I had to take a break and explain the situation to Amy who was looking at me like “what the hell is going on?”

Me: so how was the workout?

Kevin: the pants were surprisingly comfortable but of course I ran into so many people I knew.

Of course he did. It’s like when you run errands looking like hell you run into everyone you know. Doesn’t that always happen to you? When I got home I begged him to let me take a picture but he wouldn’t so I sneakily took one. Don’t be shocked if men start wearing Capri pants now. I mean Kevin has always been a trend setter.
