—I shall wear my trousers rolled
Just dropped eldest son off for a bar mitzvah at Beth Tzedec. The rabbi greeted us and said my boy looked very handsome in his suit.
He did, he does, and my God do I ever feel old, right about now.
old and proud
You are old when you wear your underpants ( not on purpose ) over your trousers and don’t realize it and then deny it.
So you are still ok.
I find that’s as we get older, we measure time no longer through the years of our own experiences but through the eyes of our children.
Also…
Y’know…”Why should I give a shit what you think?” would make a great song. Just sayin’ here.
Did you buy the suit from Moores at the 2 for one OR did you get one of Don Cherries old cast offs. I trust you at least went for the former and not the latter
High-flood pants a la Thom Brown? Cool. But you better do it right. You roll the cuffs no more than 2 1/2 – 4 cm, otherwise you’ll end up in knickerbockers, which are definitely outdated. Also out of style: sans-culottes. Today’s true revolutionaries roll it up, no matter how “old” they are 🙂
It goes by so fast, doesn’t it?
Dare you eat a peach?
FINALLY someone gets the TS reference!
This is one beautiful poem I’ve never read until now
