I have trouble here too. Everyone is short and finding pants long enough without spending 70 bucks is next to impossible! Oh and add I actually have a butt adds to more difficulties. 

 

I've got the opposite problem, everything is too long. Even shopping in the 'petite' clothing department  I've got to alter most of it. I'm short waisted, and no butt to speak of. I hate shopping.

 

We had rain, hail, and really high winds earlier. Our leaves were just starting to change colour, and they've mostly been blown down. It really looks like November out there.

I need a 34-36 inch inseem depending how I want to wear them. Finding anything more then 28 is so hard. Omg shirts I swear they are making them only for tweens they are crazy short. 

 

They should make women's sizing like men's - inches at the waists x length.  There is just as a large of range of height for women as men...

 

Having a standard length might be more understandable in a homogenous society, but we are such a diverse country, it is ridiculous to continue to do it.

A lot of the women in town here wear Buckle jeans (and they resell them back in forth on our town FB group).  They have inseams that long, but they are spendy.  

 

There are a lot of tall women here - one of my daughter's teachers is as tall as my husband!

That would be ideal. 

 

I'm not even that tall but my legs are long.

It's been more misting here and cool. It poured last night but I don't know if there was any hail. I was slept through most of it.

I kind of wish that were my problem.  Both the Dane and I have long torsos.  He really needs a length beyond tall, like extra tall for his shirts.  He only wears a 34 inch inseam in pants, 36s tend to get frayed.

It is 17 outside and falling.  The little Dane just tried to remote start my car and it wouldn't turn over.  Got to love this time of year.

Random rant:  The Dane thinks that I shouldn't breastfeed until two years with this next one.  I'd like to do it and went to 15 months with the last.  Up until very recent human history, this would have been normal.

They get frayed is I'm wearing shoes or flip flops

 

I guess you should let him play with the keys more often to keep the car primed

Bah do what you want it's not like he's feeding them. 2 is about my limit well not right on the day but not anywhere near three.

The car beeps when you lock it or start it remotely.  It would probably drive our neighbors nuts.  When it fails to start it repeatedly beeps.  

 

I think it is more like he thinks they are off-limits when I'm breastfeeding and he wants them back sooner rather than later.  If he doesn't want to work through that hangup, I guess it is on him.

1.  Until approximately the year Many (several Manycades ago), one could depend on men's clothing sizes, then si vs. now sigh man.  Now, depending on where stuff is made, concepts of size can vary widely, measure twice cut once man.

 

2.  Consider buying only clothes made in Poland*, si ma'am.  The dimensions are always Many inches (waist) x Many inches (inseam), instantly and perfectly matching our perpetual Many-inch waists and Many-inch inseams, oj tak.
