Flattery Will Get You Everywhere
My coworker friend REFUSES to believe that I’m hiding fat under my clothes. We were having a heated discussion after I mentioned needing a girdle Spanx, and just as I was about to to strip down naked to prove my point, she compared me to my impossibly svelte Italian Greyhound. Now I could have been offended that she was comparing me to a dog, but I was actually rather flattered. At a barely there 8 lbs, with long stick-like legs and a waist any woman would die for, my dog is one of the few creatures I’m happy to be compared to. So thank you, coworker friend. I can now forgive you for that egg nog latte.

Geez….being compared to a thin (okay, i tried the fancier word–i can’t spell!) Greyhound….just color me green and kill me now. i think i would probably be remembered as more the fat Bull Dog type….
Your dog is amazing.
im like a litle jack russel. neat, small and endlessly yapping.
a lot of people like to kick me when they’ve “had enough”.
Sheesh, you are such a lucky b*atch! I am so jealous. If I’m an animal, I would be a whale, yup definitely!
btw, maybe you should buy her an egg nog latte + extra whipped cream on top – it’s the season of giving after all!
pretty dog!
p.s. egg nog lattes taste like shit, my sister bought me one, ick
Where are you, ladies? Miss you!
I agree with Tracy. We need you to get through the week, ladies.
Hey, where are you, ladies? Now you have me worried!!
Where are you emaciated + skinny? I miss you already.
Where are you ladies??
I need my daily doses of cynicism to get through the week.
Need you back.
Maybe they drowned in egg nog latte?
Adding my voice of concern to the whereabouts of Ms Skinny and Ms Emaciated *worries*
i have resorted to reading tons of your past entries, i am that desperate, not that that is a bad thing…they’re witty and smart of course, but I MISS YOU TWO!!!!!!!
