Izzy, that was VERY diplomatic. 

HOWEVER, I have done the math on this and if I wear the jeans every single day for the rest of my pregnancy, for the 3 months after I have the baby (cause let's be honest, there is no way I'm getting this backside into anything but maternity wear for quite some time), those jeans will only cost me 37 cents a day. 

On the flip side, I will be wearing very cool jeans that I paid 1/3 of their original price and that feeling of coolness will bring about an inner peace and contentment despite looking like the broad side of a barn.  Further, I anticipate being able to resell them for roughly the same price I bought them, simply referring to the finish then as "distressed."  People pay big bucks for the "worn" look.  And boy, will those bad boys be worn.....

Pathetic, huh?  I should just go out to Old Navy and buy a pair of jeans for $20.  You're right.

I take it this pair of jeans is maternity jeans? I say go for it, girl! If it makes you feel good, I say it's worth it. It doesn't cost an arm or a leg, does it? Or will it require your first born? Wait, wait, wait.... hold on. I'm doing the math. Aha, so this pair of jeans cost about $75, if I'm not mistaken.

Go for it! Just sign a contract that you'll lay off the Eddy's ice cream for the time that you'd be wearing it. I say that more than equals the money.
