Abstract
When I want to wear my favorite pair of skinny jeans, I ask my husband to hold them 50 yards away from me. Then I get a good running start before I pole vault into them. Next, I do a little ritual dance — something like an Irish jig and Russian hopak mixed together, with lots of kicks out to the side, hands at hips — begging for the seams to be strengthened for the fearsome battle they must wage all day.
