Default Presenting, for the first time in his adult life, Howie in an XL!

WOOT WOOT!

Howie bought an mens XL at Wal-Mart Saturday night!
I mean, look at that long, thin man!

Hey! You look great - actually, it looks a little baggy! It won't be long before you are in a LARGE!! Red is a good color for you too - Congrats!

It's quite the "Ode to Ohio" outfit isn't it?

God love 'im, he's certainly matchy! Rolls eyes...Yeah, sure is. I hadn't noticed that before! He needs some OSU tennis socks and sneakers now.

Wow ~ what a great pic! I'm going along with everyone who says the XL is looking a little baggy! You're a great inspiration and example to us all, Howie

It's wonderful how you take the time to be so supportive of all of us while you're doing great things for yourself. Too bad you're not as supportive of your team. I mean, really, not even an Ohio State tattoo on your cheek ~ that we can see anyway...

Howie that is so great that you are in an XL now. I agree that the larges aren't too much in your future!!!

Thanks everyone. Beth I just can't believe you would ruin this thread by saying those words about the team up north. LOL

Here in the Columbus area OSU football is bigger than NFL. And I do love my Buckeyes.

Howie, you look more handsome every time I see you! (Kimberley knows I say this in the most sisterly of ways. ) You look just WONDERFUL. I don't know anything about football, but I know red is just fabulous on you, and that in general whatever team you root for must be a very fine indeed. (With the notable exception of our "agree to disagree" terms on my beloved Yankees and anyone who doesn't also love them. I just don't get that. )

Anyway, back to the topic at hand: Howie, and his newfound XL-wearing studliness. If I were you, I'd go ahead and go back and get the Large now, because you're not going to be able to get away with that baggy XL for much longer. You can't go around looking sloppy with that tidy, put-together girl that is your also-shrinking, ever-lovely wife.

No need to get the Large. Kimberley has a nack for making my shrits a size smaller in the laundry. LOL I used to hate it but now I can say it gives me something to shoot for.
