“I reached for my scrinchy-waisted shorts, having just found them again from underneath the pile of clothing just in time for immediate donning.
As I drew them up over my legs, the thought preempted, “Maybe they won’t fit, anymore?”

And then – ta-da! – their button flew off!
Luckily, I could still temporarily use the tie strings to keep them on for the needed moments.”
