4 reasons Thai pants rock

1. They are great climbing pants

Last weekend I didn't climb very much - I got maybe a meter, meter and a half at most off the ground on one climb and fell a bunch. I'm way better at rock falling than rock climbing. After that I didn't do much because I felt kind of bad about borrowing gear, because while people are awesome about sharing, it means that the person I was borrowing from couldn't do anything, nor could I belay anyone to offset the need to be belayed, which makes me feel guilty. Plus did I mention my excellence at falling? That is a lot of strain to put on other people's stuff. Anyway. Am in the process of ordering stuff.

2. In emergency situations, they can be a hat

Or rather, head covering. Woods are scary in the dark. And they are cold. And I should learn that I ALWAYS am a lot colder than I think I will be and should just bring more clothes all the time. But Thai pants wrapped around one's head make a great hat/scarf combo.

3. They make excellent pajama pants.

Which would be awesome if I was sleeping better than I am, but I'm not. Don't know what's up, but it is official that I'm not the nicest girl in the world on long-term sub-6 hours a night. This can stop anytime. Really.

4. They are very comfortable for just lounging around

I plan to watch even more Dancing With The Stars (don't judge me!! Laila Ali is AWESOME!!!) while playing with kitty I will be taking care of. Expect to see pictures of Jakob so that Virgina doesn't freak out. (Yes, this was a stretch, but hey, not a lot going on, and I needed to work the cat in somehow.)
