You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Which is why Costco rules.

Yeah, we don't have one of those. Houston and Birmingham. We may be getting one, possibly?

I saw a picture of myself from the meeting that had me yelping 'I'm built like a fucking pornstar' and not in a 'I like that' way, if you know what I mean. It was a little embarrassing. EVERYTHING about me has shrunk, even the boobs, but they are still disproportionate. And on the frame I have now, it still surprised me.

Sophia, is there a Hollaback chapter where you are? Sounds like there should be!

I suspect one reason I let myself get so fat was because of the catcalls.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I've suspected the same. I don't like being fat, but I liked unwelcome male attention even less.

I heard this too, I think someone at work was talking about it.

Over on Carrollton, but all I can find is info about the presentation. I don't think they've started construction, don't know if it's even for sure.

That's something I've been running around in my brain lately. In a vague sort of way, since I don't *actually* want to deal with it, but eventually will. Probably.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I didn't get the life stories of everyone that came to the krav school, but I did meet at least one woman who'd dropped a lot of weight, and now that she was no longer invisible in the way she'd become used, she felt she needed to be able to fight. I'd take martial arts training and a concealed carry permit to handle this shit myself.

Ooh. Dinner was spiced pound cake, and dessert is egg nog ice cream. Mmmm.

Which I have considered. But have not done.

Never got as far as the permit, because I was waffling so hard over the gun. Leftie gun, rightie, which way to go?

Okay, that ice cream needs to eaten with something, clearly. This pound cake is perfect for that, Win. But for all that, I missed the window to call home.

It is time for me prepare for my early morning ER trip. I don;t believe I have it in me so stay up much longer.
