Low Riders

Today's funny story occurred during garden time. Yes, the school I teach at has several garden spots that the kids love to pull weed or play with insects in. While I was pulling up a dandelion, to young girls said, "Mr. B, you need to pull your pants up!" Naturally, I was afraid my crack was hanging out, which I have always been (or tried to be) conscious of. Besides, who knows what a 2nd grader might do. So I did a quick reach around check to make sure. I confirmed no crack was visible, but possibly some waistband was showing. Needless to say, I was a little embarrASSed.

In actuality, my pants are getting big for me. I have lost 8-10 pounds since I have started teaching, which is a good thing.
