Clearly Claremohr

Fat and Formal

in Archives on 06/14/08

Tonight is the 50th annual Mrs. Boone pageant.  I love being a former Mrs. Boone.  I really do!  But I hate parading across a stage when I’m fat and I’ve shoved my body into a semi-formal poufy dress.  I feel like Anne Hathaway in Princess Diaries when she says, “In case I’m not enough of a freak already, let’s add a tiara!”

So, I’m going to go take a shower, cut the tags off the dress I kept thinking I would take back, and polish up the tiara.  When I get there I’m going to have a great time!  It’s just the getting ready to go part when I’ve been eating like a horse all day and feel bloated that’s the problem. 

Good luck to all the candidates tonight!  I can’t wait to see who wins!
