I do not have a hole in my clothes. It is a weed root grow spot.
As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
I'm going to preface this in I HATE and LOATHE hunter red and black lumberjack flannel shirts. I hate most plaids too as they are ugly, but that mass produced red and black is just off putting to me.
So I was rummaging through the junk on my Grandpa's place in the trees and found the Wicked One had thrown away lots of Beloved Uncles things, like pots and pans. Why in hell people throw out perfectly good pots and pans and then buy new stuff I have no idea, but I salvaged them and as I was digging, I spotted this red flannel shirt jacket. It was half buried in the dirt and had weed roots growing in it. It was ok when it was thrown out, but clothing out in the woods for years does start to degrade. I pulled it out of the dirt, it seemed ok, so I thought, "I'm going to wear that thing for revenge on the WO".
So I shook it out...........LOTS OF DUST. I washed it. Put it on, LOTS OF DUST. So I washed it again, and it still smelled like lots of dust an musty wood must.
I actually started wearing the thing. The zipper was plastic and broke, which is why it was tossed, as why fix something when you can just throw it out. Odd part is that WO was bitching before he went tits up about not having a shirt with a zipper in it. Hmmm guess karma was coming back to bite him in a lesson not learned.
I thought about putting in a zipper. Would be a hand sew job which is not appealing to me, an then I see the scuff marks on it, in the inside has a lining slough off and there is something else on the outside that is root wear and I think.........yeah maybe just wear it as it is.
Thing is I wear that piece of shit every day. I put it on over my hoodie and under my ratty Carhart I got out of the Thrift. I washed it in February again as it was like two months of animals on it and I was surprised in it was soft now and nice. All the forest dwelling microbes are gone. I'm kind of attached to that shirt as it hangs on the back of my chair when not in use, and it is very warm for a synthetic shirt.
I still ponder about the zipper, but .........I figure I put something into this shirt, it is going to start falling apart and then I think I will know where those ratty spots are and not be pleased with them.
Hmm now that I think about it, I got a ratty falling part coat from JYG. It proabably has a metal zipper in it. Will think that over when the snow thaws off of it, as it looked like Goober Pyles cootie coat so it was left outside as I did not want any plague coming nigh my dwelling. That would be a free zipper an that would please me. I would like to put a new skin on that Carhart as the brown duck is falling apart, but the interior is good yet. Just do not have a heavy duty sewing machine and have no idea what model to get, as I do not want some damn computer or 5000 stitches. Just would want something that would sew Jew skins together for a nice big lamp shade. (That is satire to see if you are paying attention as proper people will be aghast who just showed up here and wonder if I just typed that. You can't be woke all the time or you won't have a good orgasm or ever have a good sleep.)
So when I got it, it was a live guys junk and now it is my junk as he died and it can't technically be a dead guys clothes like most of my stuff is..........the other are priss clothes that rich people throw out and I get for 25 cent. Just to explain my mountain of clothes with TL, we spent like 20 dollars on quarter stuff in February. Lord God do you get piles of clothes for a quarter and they were heavy ass clothes too and designer stuff.
Woman ahead of us spent 161 bucks on not quarter items. I was like why in the hell do you spend that on used clothes. I helped her load a cabinet. Was like cold out and she had no hat or gloves. Just a cat with a wet nose that kept rubbing it on her face when she was sleeping.
I get claws to the face of sneezed on . I hate wet cat nose rubbed on me too.
Anyway I would the weather was nice so I could put my hands on the plague coat and see if I want to put the zipper on the junk flannel, but maybe I should try an find some canvas and recover that plague goat and recover the Carhart. I would get Darla to do it, but damn that woman is old now, and democrat and vaxed and she does not even recognize me and I have known her all my life. God knows if she could sew yet or if she ..........hey I will ask her husband what her sewing machine is or ask her if I can get it through her head who I am. Was some woman we kept running into in town who thought I was stalking her. I have better things to do..........besides the Brier has like 5 stores. Pretty good odds you are going to find the same people in the same stories as they all start on the east end of town and end up in the west. Yes that is German. They are logical and ordered and all think the same way. Only have problems when you have foreigners who are like free radicals bounding around as they do not know the system to keep things flowing.
OK got to go write about chickens and then inspect the forest shirt to see if I want to mess with it. Thing is I want a zipper for the cool days but if I put a zipper in it, I will start wearing it as a coat and then destroy it. Such dilemmas I have to endure which people with money never endure as they just toss their clothes to the weed roots and go buy some lovely new thing covered with the poisons of China or Pakistan.
I had to buy a tarp for the wood pile, was canvas........you know it was Chinese and it stunk. Wonder what kind of poison chemicals were on that thing. It will snow and wash off and then TL and I will have it for our lean to, for adventures when skunks will not eat our faces off. Yes skunk eating faces off was a big problem in America in the West. I don't know why people could sleep through a skunk eating your face off but it is now out of vogue with skunks. I want some kind of mosquito netting as I do not want bugs eating me or skunks. Just have concern about Big Foot, but if I stay out of pop up campers, I will not have a problem as Big Foot's love pop up campers to lift them up. Probably looking for used flannel shirts buried in the dirt.
Nuff Said
