I do shoping therapy today and it's nice. I did a very good job since I got three new Ts, two new skirts and a cocktail blouse (need that for my frined's wedding this month), all of  them under 1,000 bath (around 30 US dollars). Girlfriends, you gotta love this place. Next time you come to Thailand, don't forget to do some shopping at Platinum Pratunam (Pratunam means water gate), the wholesale mall full of colthings and stuff girls love in every size. I mean I'm XXL and my friend is XXXL and we still can find something nice and inexpensive to wear.

Anyway, I'm sitting here and just thinking way back to one night at my family reunion dinner. We're big family (think Irish family, something like that and one of my aunt got married to an Irish guy, too.), so lots of people came. Kids grew up, adults grew old and swell. I was talking to one of my cousin (she's the younger.) when her brother came and said now we're in the same size (she was slim when I started to get chubby.)which I'm cool with that. Then he said more, that it's ok for his sister (to get chubby) because she's married and has two kids. I was like What the hell he's using to think and say those kind of words. Definitely not the brain.

I saw this kind of situation once on TV screen while I was watching Real Women Have Curves. When a mother said to her daughter that it's OK for mama to be fat because she (can) get married. And I rememberd a woman I know said getting married is like getting an FDA approvement. It cures everything. It's the highest level of success of being a woman. I said it's a magic and universal answer because if you get married, you can be fat, ugly, rude and cut in the line at supermarket. You got all that priveledges.

I know this is not right. I'm not yelling because I'm single. I have no mean to offence to married woman. Hell, I wnat to marry someday if I find the man who makes me want to. I just wonder why so many people, even women, think this way. How come this idea?
