important lesson

Right now I'm wondering about skinny jeans, and if there is any kind of law about me wearing them or not.

Also, I am enjoying reflecting on this moment at school today, as students were grappling with the economic concept of goods vs. services:

Me: "Well, services are things like getting your car washed. Or having someone cut your lawn. I would hate having to cut a lawn, if I had one. I live in an apartment, so I don't have a lawn. Or, some people get their nails done, and that's a service. Obviously, I don't (holds up hands for all to inspect)."

God, why didn't I just go on with things like, "Obviously, your moms all have personal trainers or tennis coaches and I don't. Check out this flab! And your parents probably have financial advisors. I pretty much just let whatever happen with my money, since there is so little of it. Oh, but I do have a real estate agent. That's a service! Of course, I'm trying to only look at things under $90,000. Your houses cost at least five times that, if not more! But it's cool. At least my preferred candidate won the election"

Then we all would have shared a large, deeply unflattering belly laugh, they would have advised me to never wear skinny jeans, and I would have totally agreed.

Instead, here I am, still not sure.
