9/06/2007 It's really bad that I'm too lazy to update my blog. I managed to get all my publications done (relatively) on time, and then went on vacation for 6 days. Last Wednesday, I flew up to New York to spend some time with Ellie and go wedding shopping. We found her wedding dress (which is gorgeous) and I tried on some bridesmaid dresses. I'm very frustrated with myself right now, though, because I can remember a time when I bought a size freakin' 0 (I was, like, 13, but still) and now I'm running about 8-10. I think a lot of it is a side effect from my medication. I'm about 20-25 pounds heavier now than when I first started taking it. And I may not be a healthy eater, but I don't eat that MUCH of anything. In any case, my doctor agreed, and we're phasing out the paxil at the moment. I have a follow-up on the 11th to check my progress and hopefully discuss alternatives. It seems to be going okay so far; I'm on half my regular dosage, and I've only noticed a slight increase in irritability. Nothing too severe. I hope it stays that way; I'm supposed to decrease another 5 mg every two weeks until I'm off completely. ANYWAY. Aside from the wedding shopping, we mostly just hung out. We did spend Labor Day doing regular shopping, which was pretty darn successful. I got to see Deena and Brannon, and that's always fun. Oh, I designed a Save the Date card for Alison and Saul, too. I think it's pretty cute. I can't wait to see it in print! And on Tuesday, I flew back here and went back to work yesterday. I have a lot to catch up on. I'll probably be pretty busy this weekend, too, because it's Family Weekend at school and there's events to photograph. I need to remember to check in with my boss about that tomorrow and see which ones I need to cover. Okay, it's past 9, and I still haven't eaten yet. Time to go! posted 10:08 PM / post
No one's the same size they were when they were 13...I'm like 5 times the size I was when I graduated high school. My prom dress was a size 2 but those aren't anywhere near my house now. It happens to the best of us. In fact, Oreo has put on 1 pound or two since he started living here...Poor kid.
