Oh Hanes, you temptress!

Today's joie de vivre are those special sweatpants in your life. You know the kind I'm talking about... The sweatpants you can't bare to part with no matter how unholy they become. Sure, the elastic has been stretched or ripped out and the stains have long since paid off their mortgage, but these pants are family. And you just don't throw away family, do you? No, you don't.

They may have long been retired as 'indoor pants' but nevertheless, they're always there to greet you in the bottom of your pajama drawer. Why don't you do yourself a favor and put your pair on. Eat a whole pie, and these pants won't judge you. Watch fifteen episodes of What Not to Wear and these pants will never accuse you of being lazy. These pants love you for exactly who you are.

Thank you, sweatpants, for making life a little more joyful - albeit a little more ugly. In this case, beauty is most definitely in the eye of the beholder.
