You know it's warm outside when....

the work briefs make their appearance!

April 25th marks the date of my first sighting of 2006. For those of you who don't know what I am referring to -- work briefs are one of the many experiences that accompany life in the midst of a construction zone. Regardless of body shape, type, age or fitness level, some construction workers feel the need to do their strenuous work in their underwear. I have yet to determine if these are indeed their underwear, or some other imposter purchased at the local "Work Briefs Shop" solely for the purpose of performing outdoor work such as shoveling gravel, tiling roofs, digging trenches and the like. Either way, it's not a pleasant sight to happen upon when one innocently returns to their home after a nice morning walk in the park. Next year I may have some explaining to do: "Mommy, why is that man outside in his panties?" or "Why can't I go outside in my panties?".... Oh boy.
