I'm currently in the process of digitizing and editing some old family
movies from the 70s. There I am at the family Christmas party in 1971
when my son was a mere 7 months old. There I am at my grandpa's
birthday party in 1974. And there I am at my mother's wedding later
that same year. Two things about me in those movies are very noticeable
to me now: a) I was quite slim (118-120 lbs) and wore a shamelessly
high miniskirt to show off my fabulous legs (and, obliviously, often my
fabulous ass (hey we ALL have fabulous asses at the age of 19) whenever
I took a deep breath ;-), and b) I was always at the buffet table. I
could not keep away from it. Pick, pick, pick. I was always reaching
for something to eat. I got away with it when I was young and
energetic, but that would soon change. I stopped wearing the mini-
skirts eventually, but I continued to gravitate to the buffet table. I
couldn't help myself -- it sang it's siren song and I fell for it every
time.
I am SO glad to have changed my habits and will never again be a slave
to the wickedly beckoning party buffet table! I will also never again
wear a miniskirt, but that's another story ;-)
