I turned in my notice at the beginning of last month, and I will be taking care of a variety of family [...]
So I’m wearing a new pair of pants today. Ok, second day I’ve worn them.
What happens?
I get glued spilled on them. Just a little dab. I get it somewhat washed out with cold water, but it’s still highly visible. On a pair of new black jeans.
