This spray starch is making me feel bad about myself.
A few minutes ago I blew the dust off the iron so I could press the one pair of pants I own that isn't either made out of denim or specifically designated as sleepwear, and then on a whim I grabbed a handful of my everyday shorts and stuff, too. Might as well, right, I mean ironing that first pair of pants went pretty fast once I took the plastic champagne flute out of the back pocket.
So I'm ironing some Old Navy shorts I bought secondhand in 2003 and I don't know, something must be wrong with my spray starch because all of a sudden they look really threadbare and baggy and one of the pockets just fell off.
I'm guess I'm gonna have to get some new spray starch before I start pressing these long-sleeved thermal Anchor Blue bodysuits from my junior year of high school.

I have a similar relationship with my iron, only mine I think is vindictive due to underuse: when I do use it, I always come away with burns.
i think my iron keeps sewing the seams of my clothes a little tighter each time i use it. i' m not sure how it is accomplishing this, but my clothes are definitely tighter these days. clearly i need to buy more everyday sleepwear.
I prefer the low tech method of just, um, wearing the wrinkly pants. It helps that I don't own an iron, I think.
My "iron" is the big white box in the laundry room called the dryer....
