Teppy, I'm glad you got some satisfaction from that conversation.
DJ, your friend is lovely, and it is great that she is getting work that suits her and builds her up rather than marginalizes her. I think the commentary was right that in the past full-figured women such as Marilyn Monroe were included in the public view of womanly beauty, so that once upon a time a person with a nice figure such as that of your friend would be considered normal, healthy and attractive rather than "plus-sized". I hope you don't feel it is a reflection against your friend that there is more discussion here about the rest of the BS in the article.
I'm about a 12/14 (only 5 5"ish) and have a double chin! But angles can make all the difference.
Very chinny (also funny face making):

Not so chinny:

I'm 5'2" and a double-digit size that begins with 2 (Look! Pyramids!), and I've got the plethora of chins. I've also got some nice cheekbones, which helps.
lisah, you make a great covergirl!
ok I brought out a large dog crate that I had as a possible shelter for the cat. He scrambled up on the fence and gave me an offended mew. So h was just comfortable - not sick.
I'm leaving the shelter out just in case, but it looks good for now
Can I just say, you know you are really sick when the don't-hold-me cat snuggles up to you for a whole hour. Thank you, Sammie, I like snuggling you when you let me.
and I got an email -- about a possible owner
My computer wigged out all day...got the blue screen and all, but it booted fine.
I think I may have to devote my life to Jesus now or something, though, so I might not be around much.
really like those photos
I am on vacation for the week -- I have:
gone for coffee
bought boots
sorted my unmentionables
run the diswahers
paid some bills
played on the internet/watched some tv
oddly more productive than planned
I'm on a forced vacation.
I worked for one hour today and then I was laid-off. The supervisor was totally embarassed and apologetic about it, totally beyond his control.
I got a new assignment starting next Monday, but not getting paid for this week is going to hurt a lot.
