I would love to look like Miss Piggy. Well, at least in this picture, that wouldn't be a bad thing! I've always loved Miss Piggy. Seriously. For whatever reason, she's always been my favorite Muppet and also, just one of those silly things that no matter what, has always made me laugh out loud. Sometimes even a laugh with a snort. (pig laugh?). Oh, to have the attitude and the je ne sais quoi of Miss P! Of course, I'd love the clothes and hair too - but thankfully, I have my "kermee" already. Someday. Someday I'll have that attitude. The "who cares what you think (head toss)"? The grace to THROW myself back up after falling face first on the floor, because of course, she knows she's beautiful regardless! "Moi" doesn't make mistakes darling!!! Of course, I tell myself that someday I'll learn how to surf too and will look as hot as Kate Bosworth does in Blue Crush (which (a) is one of my favorite movies and (b) is a random, absolutely crazy pieces of information about me that has no relevance what-so-ever). I think looking like Miss Piggy in these clothes is FAR more of a reachable goal than that surfing dream is! That one makes me laugh out loud too. Just my random thoughts for a Wednesday afternoon. Sometimes, when you're tired, a little pig-envy puts things in perspective.

First of all, you already have her clothes! I believe she is wearing a jean jacket and i BELIEVE that you just blogged about your jean jacket fitting you.
Any Kate is hot in that movie along with all the other girls. Its one of those movies that straight girls watch to oggle the hot girls. Really, we are just longing for abs and a life like that. You know, hotel maid/surfer meets hot NFL quarterback and conquers her fears on the mighty waves of Hawaii.
Amy - you're sweet! Thanks... I forgot about the jeans jacket - how quickly we forget. I do NOT however, have the black lace bustier.. maybe someday!
Hey there! I know you don't know me, but...
I'm a 34 year old (35 in January) mom to a nearly 9 (she turns on Oct. 13th) little girl and I have been struggling with my weight for as long as I can think of. Granted, I had my "thin" years when I was a teenager, but I didn't think or acknowledge that I wasn't as big as I thought I was back then until I started creeping into the 200s about 11 years ago.
I stumbled across your blog while looking for some "real" information about the Lap-Band. It's something that I'd been craving for a long time and investigated to make sure it was the right choice for me. Problem is that I couldn't get my insurance to cover it because I'm "too healthy."
So a few weeks back I entered a radio station contest for a free Lap-Band procedure and made it into the Top 20 based on my written essay. (I'm definitely more foul mouthed than the kind tongue that you use here, but out of everyone I read, I loved your frankness the most and related to you because of our ages, our daughters and our Kermies.)
Anyhoo... after I was thoroughly checked out by the surgical staff, the doctor decided that I was one of the Top 5 best candidates for the surgery. Out of originally 400+ people who applied! I'm still in shock.
This morning, I had to go into the radio station at 6 in the morning to do an interview and all I could think about was your reference to Miss Piggy. I too grew up watching this personality who was always herself. And while my weight has never kept me from being "me," I understand the struggle of not being able to bounce back from slings and arrows, let alone throw myself up after a fall.
I ended up mentioning the Miss Piggy thing because it was early and it was as if I were frozen on the spot. Too early for me... or something.
I just wanted to let you know that you are a big inspiration to me. The radio station is basing the winner on listener votes from here on out, but if you'd like to see me on their website, they will be posting the voting on Wednesday.
I'm Zara, by the way. How're you doin'? :)
Thanks again and I look forward to keeping up with you from here on out. I just subscribed. I should have a long time ago, but I guess I didn't want to jinx myself into believing that I could win. Now all my friends are telling me I can't lose! It's all a fluster.
Keep up your great work. I hope to see you reach your goal and get that running thing kicked in the arse.
Zara
Oh, duh. The website is www.b951.com
