Today at Weight Watchers, I'd lost more than 20 pounds. For the record, that brings me well within federal health guidelines for "healthy weight for my age." In other words, the government no longer considers me fat. Hooray!
To celebrate, I decided to take myself out to dinner, a manicure, and a show. I'm even wearing my "date" dress (shown here tonight, doing my best "Carol Merrill" in my lobby). Okay, I've never worn it on a date, per se, unless you count when my dad came to town with his wife Jill. And, that's not really what a date dress is for. I never wore it with David, since the dress is a little over the top, and David's personal style is decidedly not over the top. In any case, I bought the dress in May, and this is the second time it's been out of the closet. It's also the second time if fit me. So, hooray again!
I'm going to see Jesus Christ Superstar. It's one of my favorite movies. I can't wait to see the play. The ticket was more than I wanted to spend ($65), but skinny Shawna totally earned it. Besides, the manicure is paid for; it's the last hurrah for a huge gift certificate from my fellow banana slugs. Amortizing the evening, it works out.
Off we go! More tomorrow ...
