Sign me up.

After about 30 minutes of ripping and running up and down the gym, I realized that I was hot.

Like, very hot.

Like, sweat dripping down the bottom of my pants onto the floor and in my legs type of hot.

And I just could not wrap my head around this type of heat.

So I decided to waddle, run my way into the bathroom, which thankfully was single use.

And I made the executive decision that I was like, they just got to come off.

I'm taking them all the way off.

I'm gonna do like a pat down dry, right?

I'm gonna let them air dry.

We're just gonna have a moment to like collect ourselves and come back peacefully.

So my mother had told me that pleather doesn't breathe.

When it's hot, it's hot.

When it's cold, it's cold.

Well, what she did not mention is that when pleather is wet and hot, it can shrink.

So, these, dope.

oxblood red pleather bell bottoms that had been fitting me like a glove all day would not make it up past my thighs when I was ready to leave the bathroom.

And in all of these lessons that I had learned about fashion and style from my mother, none of them had prepared me for what you do when you are half undressed in a public bathroom and need to leave.

So as the adults who are monitoring BNA, as they should, come by and knock on the door,

Z, you okay?
