One day I got a wild hair
I realized the other day that I still haven't told you what I did. A couple of months ago, I was still in a pretty deep depression. I became desperate and was trying all sorts of things to cheer myself up. On one particular morning my husband decided it would help me for us to spend some alone time together, so we went on a breakfast date, just the two of us. Then after we decided to do a little shopping. We had a few things we needed to get, but mostly we just walked around the store holding hands looking at stuff. We came across the ladies underwear section and I spotted the sexy undies. Since I've gained weight I haven't really worn anything like that, because I feel like I look stupid. My friend Judy on the other hand is another story entirely. She's also a big girl and she got into the habit of wearing thongs. Now even when I was thin and wore all the sexy skimpy stuff I drew the line at that, because I just couldn't imagine them being very comfortable. I imagined them feeling like walking around with a wedgie. LOL you know what I mean? Well Judy swore up and down that they were comfortable, so I promised her I would try a pair. I figured it was only right considering how many things I've talked her into doing over the years. hehe (Judy and I have been best friends since Jr. High.) She told me the stretchy ones are the most comfortable, so I found some that seamed to fit the bill and they actually had some in my size. I picked out a pretty one and threw it in the basket. At first my husband gave me a look that said he thought I had lost my mind. When I told him I had promised Judy, he just started laughing and said "Why am I not surprised? The two of you are always putting ideas into each others heads." When we got home I decided I wanted to try them right away. So I washed them and wore them on our family trip Waco. I think I look absolutely ridiculous in them, but OMG! I love the way they feel! They are comfy! It's like air conditioning for the butt. LOL! There so comfortable that I don't care if I look stupid. I bought five more! I think the thong inspired me, because later that day, while we were in Waco, I got my belly button pierced. Yep, I actually did it. Been wanting to do that for years, but kept letting other people and the church tell me no. Another thing that was stopping me is the fact that I'm heavy and I didn't think it would look good on me. Finally I decided it would look cute even if I am heavy and to heck with everybody else. So I did it! My husband didn't think I would do it. He thought I was going to chicken out. When we got to the body piercing place. He took off to the bathroom and by the time he got out it was done. He looked completely stunned. He couldn't believe I actually did it. I've had it for about two months now and it cheers me up every time I see it. I don't like my big tummy, but I think it looks much nicer now with my cute navel ring. My daughter think I'm the coolest mom ever. (she got to watch me get the piercing) She says I'm "Bad Ass" LOL! ;-D
