Sometimes you just have to mop the ceiling. (really, take a look at your bathroom ceiling. I did today....)
And sometimes you need to eat chocolate chips for breakfast.
And sometimes things pop into your head randomly that you just have to laugh at.... or off.
This afternoon while stripping for a shower I remembered the words of a not so wise lead singer. More of a douche than a musician or a friend but there are always a few of those around. It was reminiscent of ways I had been spoken to in the past. It reminded me of how far I’ve come.
“You’re really beautiful but not skinny enough to play music in public with an sort of success. I mean, I need to get in shape too but you’re a female, you really need to lose a lot of weight.”
Mind you, this was said to me less than a year after I dropped a whopping 65 lbs and was a size below the national average. I still am by the way, down the 65 lbs and a size below what is considered the national average pant size. I’m not skinny. I will never be a “skinny” girl. I have shape. Pretty great shape I think and I know how to dress it.
So I’m going to sit here and eat my chocolate chips for breakfast.... well, lunch and drink my coffee with a little too much sugar and give a big middle finger shout out to any asshole that ever tells a girl she’s not skinny enough.
And this concludes my girly shout out of the month.
Ahahaha!
Hmmmm......wow :)

ReplyDeleteI'm gonna make blue chocolate-chip cookies. For no reason other than I want to. Douche-y lead singers and the national average can kiss my luscious curves. ;)
