What do you miss most...?

Hi everybody,

It's been very interesting reading what you all have to say and interestingly enough I realized something while at Gibby's last night.

I arrived promptly at 6:00 with some co-workers and had a seat and ordered a drink while we were waiting for the others to arrive. I noticed that the people inside...sitting down...waiting to stuff our faces were all on the rather large-ish size.

All the people who were out in the courtyard standing...laughing...having a drink and socializing were all on the rather slim side.

It hit me hard at that moment and it actually annoyed me and the others with me that we had to "wait" until the "others" came in so we could start eating. Pretty sad I think.

I don't want to feel this way any more. I want to stand and socialize. Actually stand for more than 5 minutes without needing a chair.Feeling free to go to the bathroom (which is downstairs...!!!) when I really need to go. Seems trivial but it would be liberating.

Anyway...I did have a very enjoyable meal. Almost exactly the same as what I had last year. But for some reason I didn't enjoy it as much...left alot on my plate which is soooo not like me.

Hopefully next year I will be "sleeved" and my evening at Gibby's will be a totally "new" experience.
