Hee, Sail! Yes, Hec is lookin' foine.
Since I'm here in the F2F thread, I'll share this--I just called Candlewood Suites to tell them about the charge and credit of my half of the room and how that leaves them with only ChiKat's half of the bill paid for, and the man I was speaking with looked over the info, said that since it's already the next month there's not much he could do about it, and told myself to view it as a present from CI.
(ChiKat, $83 comin' your way!)

You know, looking at the prom pictures one thing struck me - it's as though someone sprayed the room with Body Image Demons Begone - everyone's wearing what makes them happy, and no one's being self-conscious about age, weight, flaws ... EVERYONE gets to be hot!

In my case, not so much. The pictures of me are very depressing. I'm trying to think of them as "before" pictures.

I am in the same boat. I had loads of fun, and I felt very pretty that night, but the pictures are a reminder of why I am now headed back to the gym and no longer stress eating. I think beauty comes in all shapes and sizes, but I like getting up in the morning, opening my closet, and putting on whatever I'm in the mood for. I don't like being down to about 10% of my wardrobe. And by not buying any more clothes, I force the issue with myself.

Hell, yeah. I need to get into the gym, because I'm obviously not doing anything at home. It's too comfy, with too many distractions. I get home and my motivation goes to bed, even if I'm still awake.

I had a great time, but I just look like a faceless lump among that very foamy crowd.
Javachik always looks very pretty.

Thanks Ginger.
But I miss having a neck. And a waist. So I shall work to have them again!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

One night in my life I felt beautiful, as gorgeous and foamy as anyone else in the room. It was magic. Everyone loved me, and treated me the way I think pretty people get treated all the time (which is probably a BID lie/distortion, but hey...). When we got back, I emailed the woman who made my outfit, gushing over how she had made that magic night possible. I was crying as I typed, and she made me her current cover girl on her forum. [link]
