Sickening

When did it become okay to take your sick kid over to someone else's home? I'm all about parent taking date nights, but not when there is a sick kid involved. Don't call and ask to bring your kids over so you can go see a movie w/out disclosing to everyone in the house that the kid is on the end of a cold. Now I have a cold, and I'm rather displeased about it. Clearly.

Fat Like Me

Have you ever been told you weren’t fat enough? I have. I once dated a guy named Kevin who told me (when I weighed 250 lbs.) that if we were to have a future together, that I’d have to gain some more weight. I struggled w/ this for a couple more dates and then figured what the hell, why not. But then he disappeared. Not disappeared as in literally disappeared, but stopped returning calls & that typical thing that guys do when they are done w/ a girl. This was obviously better for me, seeing as how I’d rather not be w/ a guy more cornered about his sexual attraction to me than my health and well being. Shit, I’m barely 5’4” and I’ve been nothing but in pain since I reached the 200 lb. mark. Sometimes I think about the time I spent with him, and besides the surprise of finding a guy who was turned on by my size, I guess I am still more surprised by my willingness to do what he wanted just to keep him around.

HOT-FLASHING AT 27

What the fuck? I know it’s November and all, but seriously… That doesn’t mean temperatures have automatically plummeted. I shouldn’t have to sit next to the nearest exterior doors and/or windows hoping for drafty single pane glass. Turn the thermostat back down, and take the logs OFF the fire.

What I Do Get

Audrey Hepburn.
She’s a classic & timeless beauty, and obviously a great actress.
