Journey of the Husband

These pants are the result of an epic quest known as "The Journey of the Husband" in which the hero (husband) leaves the safety of the known world of manly things (i.e., cars and guns) into the unknown world of women's clothing in search of the holy grail or in this case, pants.  He returns from his quest a more knowledgeable man who has faced great obstacles (other female shoppers' and store clerks' awkward stares at a man buying women's pants) and ultimately gains the love and affection of the lady (his wife) through his valiant deeds.

Well, to make a long story short, I bought these pants at Target in a size 6 because that was the smallest size available. The 6 fit okay, but seemed a little baggy. So I searched online and found them in a size 4 near my husband's place of work and requested that he go to Target to buy them. In an effort to appease me, he ventured on this quest and returned victorious with the size 4. Huzzah! Thus, we lived happily ever after and I have a cool pair of grid pants from Target!
