Well, I’ve finished painting my T-shirt. And I’ve decided it’s too big.
XL shirts seem to have been getting smaller over the past few years. I’m not a small bloke, but I’m not extra large. But in recent years I’ve found that Large shirts have become so small I can’t attempt to wear them. So, while gaining only a small amount of weight around my middle, I’m now extra large.
My recent blank shirt purchase, however, has led to an important discovery. Proper sized shirts. So, although my newly painted shirt is too big, I have the satisfaction of dropping a shirt size without any attempt to reduce my middle region. I may have accidentally discovered the ideal diet.
While on the subject of Eels (it’s a line from an Eels song), have you noticed how fashionable beards are becoming? You can hardly go anywhere now without encountering an E (Eels front man) clone. In fact, while at the bus stop this morning, I saw one on the number 56.
