When my roommate and I stepped outside our apartment yesterday we discovered something unusual:

Only in San Francisco!

My new pants just arrived. These pants are by far the most comfortable thing I’ve ever worn. Wearing these pants feels like anti-clothing. They are literally more comfortable than being naked.

So for the last several months I’ve been on a quest for the world’s most comfortable pair of pants. Since I work from home I don’t have to worry about dressing up every day. For years I had this great pair of sweatpants that I bought at a thrift store. So incredibly comfortable. Sadly, they wore right through on my trip around the world last year, and since then I’ve been trying to find a replacement. I considered ordinary sweatpants, yoga pants, loose fitting khakis… until a couple days ago I hit upon the solution – medical scrubs. I remember hearing that they’re just about the most comfortable things you can wear – they need to be since doctors and nurses have to wear them for hours and hours on end – and their jobs are so stressful they need the most comfortable clothing imaginable. So I searched on amazon and found a pair of scrub pants. Two days later? Here they are.

And it feels like I’m wearing clouds. Of course I didn’t know what size to get, so I figured bigger = more comfortable and got size XXL. Kind of humorous as I am quite thin, and holding up the pants makes me look like Jared from Subway. But they have a drawstring so I can tie ’em, and they are so very very comfortable it just doesn’t matter. Plus I can pretend I’m a surgeon. Maybe next I’ll get the shirt to go with ’em.

Yay for scrubs! If you want your own pair you can find them here.
