Motivational Jeans

Thanks in part to giving up sweets and thanks in the other part to doing massive amounts of push-ups lately, I've lost a little weight recently. Just a little, really, but my jeans have gotten a bit loose around the waist. So a few weeks ago, the missus and I went out shopping for some new ones.

I'm sort of between sizes. So my options were loose around the waist, like my current jeans, or just a tad too tight.

As I was showing the missus a pair that was distinctly too tight for me, a salesman walked by, and complimented how they looked. I said, "I don't know, man. They're a little tight."

"They can be your motivational jeans!" he said.

"My motivational jeans are my old jeans."

He got a good chuckle out of that and wandered off. And I still haven't bought any new jeans.
