An Ode to My Jeans

The reality is, parting with you is simply not an option. Though I recognize that fitting into you again is unlikely, a girl can still hold onto hope, right? Your presence in that dresser drawer gives me comfort, knowing that should the day arise when I need you, you will be there. And about that remark I made regarding the potential vintage value of jeans? Please disregard it! It appears that it’s styles from the earlier decades that are fetching the highest prices, and unfortunately, you, my beloved 1980s pair, do not fit that criterion. But fret not! While you may not be a highly sought-after item, to me, you are invaluable.

The sight of you brings back a flood of memories—strolling through the mall with friends, laughing at the pinball arcade, and enjoying slices of pizza. Donned in you, paired with my favorite T-shirt and trendy boots, I felt as light as a feather, embodying style, comfort, youth, and confidence all at once.

To those who urge me to declutter and eliminate anything that no longer fits or hasn’t been worn in a year: I regret to inform you that I will not comply. Despite being a few sizes too small, you remain perfect in my eyes. However, I acknowledge that the advice of professional organizers has merit, and it’s time for me to make a decisive change. Thus, starting today, you will enjoy more space in that drawer! Apologies to my spandex aerobic pants; our bond has become too constricted. While we shared some enjoyable moments, they pale in comparison to the joyful memories of roaming the town in denim, particularly when seeking a tasty pizza.

So, my cherished jeans, you can now relax, for you shall be my sole favorite. Curiously, however, I find myself pondering if perhaps you could be just the right size for my little one.
