Day 42 Jeans: The New Religion

Citizens of Humanity, 7 For All Mankind, Blue Cult, True Religion. Sounds like new spiritual movements. They're not, they're jeans, I mean, denim and you don't buy your jeans at department stores anymore, you go to denim emporiums or premium denimtiques. These ain't your Mommy's Levis.
Button Fly 501 Levis and Wranglers are as passe as aviator sunglasses these days. Where's Gloria Vanderbilt and Brooke Shields when you need 'em?
It's been years (yeah, you read that right) since I bought a pair of blue jeans that I've lost touch with the whole denim revolution. The denim scene arrived and I wasn't even aware of it until I popped into one of those holier than hip boutiques to pick up Reward #4. I was overwhelmed. The salesperson spoke a dialect I didn't know existed, denimese, and prattled on about thread, fit, wash. Then, I glanced at a price tag and I had to sit down.
A gaggle of giggling teens entered, armed to buy and I grabbed that opportunity to escape.
So much for "heavily twilled blue cotton cloth", I think I'll get reader glasses instead.
