Have you ever watched the reality show that has the high speed car chase? You are usually watching from an aerial view, and you can see the car speeding towards a busy intersection. Your gut tells you that the car isn't going to make it. You see the dump truck coming from a side street, and (boom) they hit just like you predicted. I had a similar experience this morning, but it was an aerial view of me fat tum busting through the intersection of my pants. I am a size hmphhrmmuhum, but I guess I am putting on a few "traveling" pounds. My eyes darted back and forth from the button to the whole it was supposed slip into. "Not gonna do it." I managed to pull them tight, fasten, and hold my breath for 5 minutes while I put my shoes on. I finally came to grips w/ my bigness, and decided I needed to try other pants. Luckily, that first pair was just a rebel in the midst of allies. I tried on a rookie pair of khakis, and thanks to Betsy they fit. I knew it would be an uphill battle to keep this day positive.
1. My bloated stomach was still hurting from a BBQ chicken pizza I ate the night before. I really should stick to a strong "Don't eat unlikely combinations" policy.
2. It is rainy, chilly, and windy.
3. I forgot my lunch upstairs, and had to go back for it.
4. I forgot my new hair cream, and will be forced to buy a substitute (I can't go around w/ my white mans afro).
5. My deodorant ran out. It is a gel. I did one arm, and then nothing else came up. Booooooh! Their should be a better indicator.
6. A "silkie" came in today w/ a mission to pee on everything, and succeeded. Her "grandmother" just laughed, and said "She left you some more at the front, I guess she was waiting to get inside." I have no idea how so much urine could be in one teency bladder. The first 2 times were normal, but she was just messing w/ me after that. I ask all pet owners to kindly clean up after your own mongrel....I mean pet.
Twas my day. Highlights included a lovely chicken pot pie. It just dawned on me that "fatty" here found his highlights in the food. No wonder I am gaining weight.

Sorry you had such a bad day, Lamb. I love you and wish you were home with me since I know this would make all your days wonderful.
I like how you comforted your husband with a complement for yourself! Ha!
I know exactly what you mean. Lately, maybe due to stress and unhappiness, I have been eating my way to happiness. It is finally catching up to me annd I feel the button getting further away from the hole. I am going to try Brit's diet.
Adios (Goodbye)
I put on a bit of weight my first year teaching, and probably some my second year, too. Stress eating. That's what gets me. Maybe Brit's diet is the way to go.
