Adam@Home by Rob Harrell for May 04, 2010

Yeah, Joe, but it just doesn’t have that “broken in” feeling!

Just have it disappear in the week’s wash, Laura.

Steve. I feel for you. Yesterday I was told to take all my tapes down the basement to be replaced by a CD rack

I’m with Adam. I have two favorite shirts, one like he’s wearing, and a t-shirt with the Red Sox logo. It’s faded and about 30 years old but it will NOT be ‘refreshed’ just because it’s spring.

Hey Adam, sleep with it if you have to. :-D

she’s talking about YOU, Bozo

Right, Susan, and why is she wearing white pants before labor day?

I’ve only got one shirt left that’s coming up on 30 years old. It’s the one I’m wearing in my High School yearbook photo, and even though it’s too faded and thin for regular wear (no holes, but a couple of seams have had to be resewn), I’m never getting rid of it. (In the condition it’s in, I certainly couldn’t donate it, anyway. It’s either the closet or the landfill.)

I have a blue blazer that I’ve worn for 30 years. I’ve had the buttons re-sewn on numerous times and some restitching on the seams. It fits and we’ve been through a lot together. I’ll never get rid of it.

hey, if it still has some material left and you like it, keep wearing it

i know that conversation, happens several times a year… I just smile and say “your right baby” then with sad puppy eyes “can I keep it a little longer”?

She should keep the sirt and throw out Adam!! :-) She could do better.

Unless you really belong on Hoarders, I don’t think it’s right for anyone to tell someone else that they have to get rid of their stuff because YOU don’t like it.

Laundry nazi’s there is at least one in each home. Usually the guilt requires shopping to ease any left over urges and new packs of socks. boxers, flannel, and a new hat always fixes my fellow ideologues.
