Bruiser

Last weekend I had the 1st of 2 baby showers for my sister-in-law, (the next one is this weekend). I bought a skirt online at a brand new fat girl website called, www.alight.com. I really liked their stuff and was lucky to find an adorable skirt. It was shipped and I wore it. But, the problem with the skirt was that it was a fuller skirt and therefore made me look fuller than I really am. Solution? I stuffed myself into a girdle and tying that skirt so tight around me that I couldn't breath. We all need to suffer for fashion sometime, and this was my time.

The result: 3 hours later when I returned home I had a huge bruise, as if I was wearing a big bruised belt. It's been almost a week and it's still there, but I must say it looks lovely with my brown belt.

Hi, Any chance we can see a pic of your big belly?

I don't think that's a bruise. It sounds like africanus negrolitus, which is caused by insulin or something.

I'm not sure what anonymous #1 intentions are with the belly pic request. I would like to see a picture of both of you and Lindsey, so I have a better idea of what you look like as I read your wonderful blog. I understand that you probably don't want your picture on the web for every creep out there to see. Well, I have a solution if you would be so kind. Why not post a picture of yourself in a Halloween costume? That way we your humble readers can know a little more about who we're reading about while you still remain anonymous.

somewhat beside the point, I would recommend www.bandlu.com as another good place to get fashionable stuff in bigger sizes.

I just finished reading all you archives and haven't stopped laughing and relating. Thanks for sharing and hope you keep on writing!

Did you know that if you wear one of those for a night of dancing, you end up with not only bruises, but you can even bleed? Voice of experience X( - but goddam if I didn't look hott!
