Today Is National Fat Ass Day

Yes, National Fat Ass Day, where we focus a little attention on the fat ass, either by celebrating it, rebuking it, pointing it out, sitting on it. Awareness.

I had a very early physical therapy appointment this morning. I was going to go straight to work from there, but unfortunately the dress pants I had packed and changed into were too tight and contained not a single thread of forgiving stretch fabric. Thus, I had to go home and find something else to wear.

When I saw my super in the hallway, he had a confused look on his face. "Oh," I said, "I'm back because I realized at the gym that my pants were too tight so I had to come home and change."

"Oh, really?" he replied. "Yeah, you've gained weight. Not a lot, but you have gained weight, right?"

AWESOME.

So with that little ditty, let us celebrate National Fat Ass Day, shall we? Enjoy.

Is your super related to the girl that told me that I look old?

Anne is a tiny petite girl that doesn't need to listen to old men who need glasses.

She's but a mere wisp of a thing. I speak from experience - I finally got to meet her last night!

Elizabeth said...

well i went to the doctor the other day who asked if i wanted to get myself weighed. i said, uh no. she said, come on, it will be fun!

fun? getting weighed? getting weighed right after the holidays? it was awesome. oh, and i was wearing jeans that day that i realized didn't fit like they did last month.

I had someone ask me if I had gained weight a few days ago. I let them know that my weight had not changed in some time but that I had gotten a couple of inches shorter. They accepted that explanation, which shows that my acquaintances are not Mensa-eligible.

Isn't that grounds for a knee to the crotch?

BTW, what's wrong with a sex broad like you wearing tight pants?

anne altman said...

fellas, tighter does not equal better. 10 lbs of sausage spilling out of a 5 lb bag is hideous. and uncomfortable.

love,
sex broad

anne altman said...

here's clarification:

My pants were not tight like, "Ooohhhh!"


They were tight like "Eeeewww!"

newbluebaby said...

Look, I think the lesson here, that we all can learn from, is that you should just keep your pants off.

Creepy said...

Yeah, I guess I'm just used to seeing you with your pants off.

Q: Why'd Michael Jackson go to the TJ Maxx Sale?

A: He heard all Boys Pants were Half Off.

matt said...

anne altman said...
