As I age, my fingers have gotten a lot less agile than they once were. Now I often have difficulties buttoning some of my clothes. That makes what happened to me yesterday seem particularly remarkable.
I was wearing the greenish-blue pullover you can see in the photo above. As I started to take it off, it unexpectedly got all tangled and stuck, and I couldn’t figure out why, but I couldn’t get it off no matter how I struggled. I calmed myself down and slowly investigated why I couldn’t get the pullover, pulled over my head. Then finally I discovered the problem.
Remarkably, when I started to raise it over my head, one of the buttons on the pullover, buttoned itself to one of the button holes on the shirt I was wearing. I couldn’t believe it. I bet I could take off the pullover 20 millions times and not once have it button itself to my shirt. It was unbelievable.
Below is a photo I took when the two garments were still buttoned together.
I might think there are button 'fairies' lurking.
ReplyDeleteCan I say the odds of that happening are so totally nill.
Did you buy a lottery ticket with the leftover luck?
