There’s been a lot of bacon and cupcakes in my diet of late and it’s going to catch up with me soon. Except that one day last week when I had a salad with Lindsay. I guess I posted this to STOP MYSELF FROM EATING MY WEIGHT EVERY DAY. Unless I want these to become “before” photos.

This is also to show that I wear the same hat, coat, and scarf nearly every day and that Mason shuts his eyes in every picture I take on purpose just to make mommy grimace after she sees the photo.
Sadly, I’m also not the dominatrix Avitable would like me to be. Unless he wants to photoshop my head onto someone else’s body. Which, now, he’ll probably do.

I love how at 27 I look so much older than you.
you’re so pretty amiga. i know there’s this voodoo magic that we men treat the whole womanly self image thingy, but truthfully, if we were both single, i’d be completely intimidated and probably start a rumor that you weren’t into guys to compensate for my own issues with self consciousness
You are looking younger! Why is that, I wonder? Your hair is fabulous, too. You should look haggard and world-weary, n’est-ce pas?
I’m just going to bring a dominatrix outfit for you to wear at BlogHer.
It took me two full minutes to realize that there was somebody else in that second photo. I was too dazzled by your million-dollar smile to notice!
Not that I sat here and stared at your photo for two whole minutes… because that would be kind of creepy, wouldn’t it?
I don’t always get to visit you here but this is just a comment to tell you that I still just think the world of you and am so glad you are my friend.
I’m loving the scarf and hat. Stay warm!
You look great! If the bacon and cup cakes win at least you’ll still be able to rock your favorite hat and scarf =)
