Met the girls at Chargs for wine after work. Left the office at 5:30 and had my ass firmly planted in a bar stool at 5:45. Bartender was impressed. J and 5th to J and 57th in 15 = excellent.

Then we went to Insanely Good Italian and pigged out on lasagna and caprese pizza. And I wonder why everything feels tight. I keep reminding myself that just cuz things are as loose as they were last fall, I’m not as huge as I was. But that isn’t much comfort. I’m solidly a 16/18 and wear an XL in most everything. Except for some reason the I.N.C. stuff at Macy’s inexplicably fits in a L quite a lot.

Speaking of, bought the cutest little black dress on supa-sale (regularly priced $110, got it for $22.) It’s shorter than I ever wear, but I just love it. Next fall when I can wear fishnets again it’s so getting a work out.

Reminder to myself – you can wear Normal Girl’s Size XL. Don’t stress.

Oooh, and bought the HOTTEST platform heels at Nordie’s the other day. Love them.

Everything I pick up lately is fall clothing tho. But I don’t like summer and I don’t like summer clothes, so I’m just limping through the season fashion-wise.

Still broke up over Mr. Florida leaving. Listening to Neko’s “For Crying” CD a lot that she gave me back when the ex-husband and I broke up. It’s a weird comparison to make, but I find it surprisingly I was so upset when all that happened (now) because I’ve experience such wonderful things since then that I’m terrified I’ll wake up back in LA with him and this will all have been a dream. And, that’s just that, I’m living in a really good dream. Don’t wanna wake up.

Going to try to drag C to Press tonight after work so I can stalk Hot Bartender.

Office mate has arrived. Must stop writing.

I really want my own office again…
