Mom is freaking out about seating arrangements and last minute preparations for the annual ball tomorrow. I don’t even have anything to wear yet.<\/p>\n

One would think I’d be freaking out, too. For someone who just realized that the dress I had intended to wear is the exact same one that I wore last year, I’m strangely calm. You’d think I’d be all panicky.<\/p>\n

I won’t start panicking until tonight when I realize that none of my other dresses fit me anymore. LOL.<\/p>\n

This is what I get for being forgetful. It comes with old age apparently. I don’t even want to think about what my memory would be like at sixty. It’s horrible now.<\/p>\n

Thank God for the pictures<\/a>. If it weren’t for these I’d probably be wearing the exact same dress. How embarrassing!<\/p>\n

It’s embarrassing enough to recycle! One year I wore a dress that Jen had worn five years before and mom had worn it to another event (not the annual gala) and when I wore it I felt so small (small as in pathetic and ghetto) I said to myself I’ll never put myself in that situation again.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, I may have to do some recycling again this year because I have no money for a new dress. Let’s hope that there’s something in the closet that still fits. \u00c2\u00a0 \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
