so like, my wife and i kept disagreeing on my cache. in part because she didn't know what i was doing, in part because i hadn't told her explicitly what i was doing. for example, i like to rewear my jeans a few times until they are dirty enough to need washing. i was hanging them on the side of the laundry basket. and would flip and fold and hang them differently to indicate how many times i had worn them i case i had forgotten because my brain is a rusty sieve lately.
I don't subscribe to tracking how long something has been worn. I wear the same shorts or jeans for days in summer and months in winter
I judge them on whether they still look and smell good
My eyes are not that reliable my glasses are so full of smudge and i'm used enough to peering through smudge that like, i had to get a vevor brand electrified hypersonic desmudger and it can't even keep up and i have the tinnitus so i'm not sure i trust my nose anyways i try to only have one pair of jeans in use and the problem was really that my wife was not asking me before tossing my jeans in the wash. we found a different place for me to hang my jeans than the laundry basket and i can still use her eyes (they are not so full of smudge and she does not have the tinnitus)
