Do NOT rationalize their retention in the sock drawer with the idea that you'll wear them under trousers instead of skirts so the elastic waistband doesn't really matter.
I've been pulling at my crotch all day trying to get these damned things back up, and walking has been an interesting adventure. I feel like my six-year-old sister at my aunt's wedding, who spent the entire ceremony standing on the altar pulling at her tights through her blue taffita dress for a full hour and a half long Catholic mass. My uncle says watching her squirm and trying not to laugh was the only thing that got him through the ceremony.

This story makes me sad. You are fidgiting and fighting against things that truthfully bother you, but might well be ignored by others. The best advice to you might be to just ignore it, and get on with your work- but to you the discomfort is real, and cannot be ignored.
When I realize that I would defend your right to fidgit, I am ashamed that I did not speak up to defend Paigow, albeit from my position low on the totem pole.
Surely her discomfort, while best ignored, was real.
