Pantalones

A week from now I will be in Nicaragua. Crazy shit.
My mom came up yesterday so I could get some rainforest-appropriate clothing for the trip. I found pants in my first try. PANTS. You know how difficult it is for me to find PANTS? Very difficult. Guys have it a lot easier, because your pants actaully are standardized. You can always know the inches in the waist and inseam. You could try a pair of pants on, and at least they will be the right length and circumfrence, even if you don't like the style. Girls need to overcome the first aspect though. Girl pants are not standardized -- I range from an 8-12 depending on the company, style, and if I'm purchasing shorts, a skirt, or pants. It think companies do it because a "10" sounds better than a "31." However, i'm still trying to figure out why the sizes are so arbitrary. I think it has to do with the market niche. At Old Navy, where you see a lot of overweight people shopping, deflates their sizes. I'm a "6" there. FYI: I sure as HELL ain't a six.

Ok. That was a little of a divergence from the original topic, but it seems as though I've run out of time.
