Figures

Lost mine. But it led to brilliance. I was thinking about how stupid sizes are. Today, I examined all my clothes because a woman asked me what size I was looking for, I told her that I was unsure. Should I look for clothes that fit me now or in two weeks.

I perceived that she thought I meant that I was expecting a weight change due to a diet or something. Not so. I merely was noticing how rediculous. "Sizing" myself was because no two companies use the same standards and even if they did I cannot even fit into my own clothes from last year! I laughed at an old roomate who tried on a wetsuit of mine and claimed that it would fit if the torso was longer. She was a large girl and I was on the extreme side of thin. Plus, I was a great deal taller than her. But, today many of the larger clothes were still a small size when I have no doubt that I am no longer a small anything. It is frequently said that one can hide a lot of weight with height. And I think that is the case. I have steadily been gaining weight only it was too subtle to notice the gradual change in size/weight.
