The Sweater Ballad

Sometimes, when I have to get rid of an article of clothing that I love so much it is more like a friend than a shirt, I sing 80's ballads in my head.  I'm not kidding and I know how crazy that sounds.

Like my gray sweater for instance (that you've most recently seen in this post).  I love this sweater like a long lost cousin.  But it is getting holes and washing it can no longer restore it to its old shape.  It's lost its grandeur (and I swear it had it once).

So, every time I put it on and I see one of the holes, I sing a class Bon Jovi song, "Never Say Goodbye."

This one's for you gray sweater:
