Mudcat fashion statement: The Home Depot apron worn backwards, draped low off of hips.

This, after the guy behind me at the returns register leaned forward and said "M'am, your trousers are ripped."

Big long rip, not just a little "L" shaped tear, whatever. I've been in the yard pulling sticks out of the compost and must have snagged at some point and not realized it. And stubborn enough to want to finish what I was there for, I draped by pack over my butt until I found a spare nail apron as part of a display at the service desk. Tied it on, found the hose clamp I'd come in for, and headed home.

I'll have to find another pair of ratty long pants for the weed eater days (I end up with too many dings and cuts if I don't wear long pants).
