This, my friends, is the inside of my pant leg. And that yellow band? That is masking tape providing a new hem for my too-long pants. Why do I have masking tape holding up my pants?
The answer is simple: 1) I am too short to wear pants directly off the rack, and 2) I am too impatient to take them to a tailor and wait a week to be able to wear them, and 3) I am too lazy to properly (i.e. with a sewing machine) hem them myself.
But, apparently, I am not too impatient or too lazy to carefully "hem" my pants before each wearing and "unhem" them before each washing. And with 4 new pairs of pants in my closet, I am pretty much hemming (or unhemming) every day.
