Wow, what a weekend... Friday was both homecoming and my birthday; not that homecoming really means anything special: you wear a big bunch of ribbons and go to a football game. Since I have no interest what-so-ever in football, and luckily Ben doesn't either, we only stayed for about half the game. After it was all over, a group of my friends all came to my house and we had a little party to celebrate my 18th birthday. On Saturday night, after surprising me with a big, fancy red velvet cake, Ben and I went out to dinner and had a very lovely romantic date, after which he gave me the sweetest card imaginable and a beautiful bracelet. On Sunday night I went to a Halloween party which was more fun than I had expected. And on Monday, after a day with Ben, he dragged me along to a Final Fantasy XII launch party type thing a game store at midnight. It was surpisingly fun as well. We met some cool, interesting people: there were older geeky guys, people very similar to Ben and I, and some more hardcore fans dressed up in cosplay. The line wrapped around all outside and was insanely long, but despite the long wait everyone was in a really good, fun mood. There was a lot of excitement in the air and also a whole lot of nerdy talk about other video games and anime, which I actually enjoy listening to; most of it went over my head though and I wished that I had more to say on the subject. It actually really made me want to go out and get a bunch of anime and games so that I would be able to join in on their conversations. I got a fair amount of attention there: "girl gamers" are a really cool thing to guys, though I'm not really much of one. I remember how excited and in how much disbelief Ben was when he learned that I had played Kingdom Hearts and both Final Fantasy Xs. So, after Ben insisting me to get my own copy, I bought a special edition copy of FFXII plus a special stratgy guide. I spent a couple of hours playing it earlier today, and so far I really like it.
Okay, and so tonight with it being Halloween, me, Ben and some friends of ours all went trick-or-treating together. It was great! It was my first time in 3 or so years. I was a fairy- original I know- or as Ben liked to think of it, a naughty nymph seductress. He was a vampire type person... I don't know, but it was cool. During some alone time with just the two of us, a few lines which were intended as a joke that passed between us led to some unexpected, brief, but very fun roleplay (nothing too serious now), which is making me think that I might have some other unexplored fetish type things besides feederism and gaining.
I don't think there has ever been a time more than this last week where I've really felt myself just getting fatter. With Halloween, my birthday, and parties, food has been flying into my mouth almost faster than I can swallow. I've learned that it is very possible to survive for nearly 3 days on almost nothing but sugar. Starting Sunday, I haven't had much else than cake, ice cream, cookies, donuts, and candy. My favorite dish has been the following: I get a big bowl, put a big piece of cake down in the middle, then I pile a ton of ice cream on top. I mash it all together until the cake is blended in perfectly with the ice cream and then pour hot fudge on top. I've also been amazed with how many calories can be packed into such a tiny space. For example, just 2 reeses peanut butter cups are 230 calories. Just two little cups! Loving Reeses as much as I do and having a whole basket of them, I'll eat 5 little packages or so in a relatively short period of time- such as during a 30 minute TV show. Checking the back wrappers before getting up from the sofa, I realized that by merely snacking (Okay I admit, some rather heavy snacking) and watching TV for half an hour I consumed about 1200 calories. So I then though: You know, I bet if I really wanted to I could eat about 10 cups per hour- it may make me really sick and perhaps I'm overestimating myself- but if I really tried I think that I could do it. So... in a usual 16 hour day that would make my calorie consumption around 18,400 calories! That would put me up about 5 pounds just from one day! But whatever- I doubt it. I would probably get incredibly sick before I could finish.
Anyhow, this last week I've been able to feel the pants around my waist tightening and my shirts growing snugger as my fat pudges out more.
Mmm, but now I need to get to bed. Good night!
