This is Miami beach last year. I was going to a wedding. I was in love. I wanted to be married. I was getting drunk every day. I still looked good! LOL Actually, I look at this picture and think "Wow! I was 25 lbs heavier then than I am now! I don't feel like I look any better now than I did then!" That can't be right though. Firstly everyone I know has seen and commented on the difference. Secondly, (honestly) if I look at my face I can see it. I'm all bloated. Actually I'm not drunk in this picture but I admit that amid all that beauty (especially the woman I was with) I was thinking "How long until lunch so I can whip down a few margaritas?" The answer, of course, was "not long". After which I looked like this:
Yeesh! That lazy left eye is a dead giveaway. I hate that you had to see me like that. I honestly just couldn't and wouldn't see what I was doing. Not to say we didn't have fun because we did, but looking back I can see that watching me get drunk wasn't fun for you. I am Jack's sincere apology. Going to all these meetings makes me think of fight club A LOT. I watched it again last night. "When people think you're dying the really listen instead of just waiting for their chance to talk." Eh, it's cheaper than a movie and the coffee is free. On a lighter note those popcorn shrimp in fromt of me were DEEEEEEE-LICIOUS! I have reached the beach. I pray I can stay. HHNT!
