Size 10 Update

So all my jeans suck.  Ok maybe not all of them, but the ones I tend to put on every day because they are comfortable... they seem to be getting holes in them where nobody wants to see holes.  And every day when I put them on, I think to myself, "I hope these jeans don't tear today when I bend over.  If they do tear, which they are totally going to, then I just hope it is when I'm getting in my car or someplace non-embarrassing like that."  (Side note, it took me 4 tries to spell embarrassing right.  2 R's and 2 S's.  Who knew?)

So I decided to bite it and go spend the last dollars in my checking account on some new jeans.  I'm 5'10, size 12, with a 35 inch inseam, so jean shopping is somewhat like torture chambers in Tudors England for me.  Ok ok it's not like getting quartered, but it really really sucks.

I went to Amer.ican Ea.gle because they do sometimes have long jeans and they are about half the price of the jeans I normally buy at The Bu.ckle.  And get this.

I found 2 pair that fit.

They were a size 10 long.

They were buy one get one half off. 

That, my friends, is the most epic jeans buying story in the history of my jean shopping LIFE.  Please don't tell me if AE jeans run big or something because I don't care.  I tried on a size 10 and they zipped up easily.  The girl in the store even told me to get a size 8 because they stretch so much.  I love her for saying that but considering my current sitch, I decided size 10 was blissful enough.
