There is a difference in mirrors. There are fat mirrors and there are skinny mirrors. What I don't understand is why all women's clothing stores don't contain the skinny mirror variety. What I REALLY don't understand is why maternity clothing stores have the fattest of mirrors. And to make matters worse, the change room at this particular maternity clothing store I was in last night had a curtain cover that was about 9 feet high. The problem with that height is that it makes you feel about 4 feet tall standing in front of it, looking into the fat mirror. So now I don't feel like a glowing blossoming pregnant women...no, I feel like a short fat dwarf. That swallowed a beach ball. My self esteem has been suffering lately...but now at least I have new clothes to help me feel better. And after I'm done writing this I'll probably go eat a pickle and drink a glass of milk which always puts me in a better mood.
*sigh*

If it makes you feel any better, today a woman in church shouted very loudly and awkwardly to me "Karis! You're looking pregnant!" to which I responded that really I feel like I'm just showing enough to look like I really pigged out on Halloween candy this weekend and not like I'm pregnant at all.
ReplyDeleteOn a completely different note, I saw I was on your blog list and as I tried to say that out loud it came out as "I'm on Bloggie's jos list!"... pregnancy impares speach, right?
p.s. I went maternity clothes shopping yesterday and now know what store you're talking about... and I felt like a short fat dwarf too
