I don't know how one can have such bad luck with certain things but I've split my pants right down the seat. :-\ (this sort of thing is always happening to me!) I'm at work, so thankfully most of my residents are mostly blind and should NOT be able to see my undergarments too clearly, if at all...well except for this one lady.... ::)
But I'm not looking forward to the other staff comming in the morning...and I'm getting picked up by my aunt to go to the desert museum for my other aunt's birthday and I wont have time to go home because we are trying to "beat the heat" (I may have to though!) that or barrow one of the old ladies slacks! :o
Whahhh! pity me pity me!!!! :( :( ;)
Zealia...you poor thing. That's happened to me before at work too. It's embarrassing so I feel your pain. :'(
I went to visit my grandma today in the nursing home (she fell last friday and fractured her pelvic bone) and didn't even think about the South Park t-shirt I was wearing. This little old man stops me in the hall and asks me what the back of my shirt said. I told him "something bad" because it really says "you bast**ds!". (the front is omg..they killed kenny) Anyway...he told me to throw my shirt away when I got home. I love older people. They are so not afraid to tell you what they think! ;)
Sorry...forgot to tell you to look to see if there's any duct tape or other strong tape around. You could use it to temporarily fix your pants until you get home.
Or indeed Super Glue...Can you call your aunt and ask her to bring you some pants to change into when she picks you up?
Poor you! My DH has had his zipper break at work more than once. Fortunately he sat behind a desk but I had to beat it downtown with a fresh pair in a cab, to rescue him, at least twice!
They say that fly zippers are the hardest things to put in; well I got plenty of practice! When I set in a zipper, that puppy stays set! ;D
yeah...I found some thick, clear tape...I was thinking about using that...ha ha...okay, so here is the funny part. My dogs actually chewed through a pair of my parts a while back ad they were my absolute favorites...SO I found these ones at Salvation army that were just like them...worn in and everything! Well, My dogs got a hold of these ones to and got to work chewing on them. But I discovered what they were up too and pulled the jeans away...They chewed a large hole right above the pocket on one side (below the part that gets covered by a belt) But I like the pants soooo much that I figured I'd wear them anyways, just with a long shirt...So...all day yesterday i kept pulling my shirt to cover the hole on the seat of the pants....and then last night I squatted down and RIP!!!!....SO, I could patch the huge rip, but unfortunately it will make the fact that I'm wearing holly jeans quite obvious! ::)
hahha...ahh.
oh great, AFN now a moth the size of a humming bird is attacking me.... :o

maybe you could put a zipper in my pants?
Can you get a sweater or jacket to tie around your waste?
you should be able to patch them up. but i like the idea of putting in a butt zipper (you know, for when you need a little extra room to get comfy!)
Butt Zipper?! ::)
What a GREAT idea......
OMG! Poor Zealia! I feel your pain though--one time when I was working as a hostess at a restaurant I must have sat in something and I got a big brown spot on my butt--not on a butt cheek--on my BUTT! So basically it looked like I had a"messy acident"...it was really awful! I couldn't go home and I had 3 more hours left in my shift-it was the late shirt too so all these drunk college aged kids would come in and be like "hey man you got somethng on your ass!" then they would giggle and point--Oi!
I'm down with the butt zipper ;)
staple them!! turn them inside out and staple them, one right next to the other! then just be gentle when you squat..

Ohhh OUCH! Not a pretty mental image!!
VHZ I'll sew in your zippers if you send me the jeans and the zip...course for the price of postage to and from Spain you could probably buy 3-4 pair new...hee hee...
Do you wear uniforms there? Maybe you could've asked your boss for an extra one.
Look on the bright side. You'll be able to look back on this and tell everyone you know about the one time you split your pants at work. Hilarity shall ensue
I once split my pants while playing hopscotch in elementary school. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
i've split my pants before. and mirrya, i love that about old people, too.
i can't wait to be like that.
you guys are too funny! ;D
No we don't wear uniforms at the nursing home because its supposed to feel like a "home" not an institution. We are allowed to wear uniforms when giving a shower, but thats pretty much it...
So what i ended doing is taking the tank-top undershirt I was wearing and made the spaghetti straps on it really long...and it was just hardly long enough to cover the hole (as long as I didn't lift up my arms and move around too much. My residents were the only ones who were here while I was moving around and working, but they didn't notice it. then I just had my aunt stop by my house on our way to the museum (which was so so fun...its basically a nature walk through the desert and the wild animals they have there seem to be roaming the park but they actually have thin barriers that just blend in with the land scape. It was very envro friendly, animal friendly and people friendly....we could not have asked for better weather either....but I'm off topic.....
Yeah...I have had My pants split before which lead to a joke about "split pea soup" so now my family always teases me about split pea soup... ::) haha So it does mek for funny stories later!
