an interlude with some backstory

backstory #1: almost 10 years ago, I bought a pair of black leather pants.  I was able to get them for $120 off the original retail price.  I was very happy.

backstory #2: about six months after I bought them, I had them altered.  (I'd been on Weight Watchers and was crazy skinny - the first two digits of my weight were 12)

backstory #3: about four years ago, with my weight the highest it's ever been (first two digits were 19), I put the pants in the deep back corner of my closet.

TODAY: on a whim, I try them on.  They fit.
