This was taken when Alison and I were at Macys shopping for my rehearsal dinner dress for our wedding. So this must have been May of 2008 or so? (Back when I had a waist). Saw this little number hanging on a sale rack and HAD to try it on.
How could I not?
A pretty pink princess dress for grown ups! Alison took the pic on her phone and we laughed and laughed. And she just found it today and re-emailed it to me.
I really needed this today.
After realizing at 845am that I had a 9am doctors appointment. No shower for me!
After realizing that I am NOT as ahead of the game on Christmas gifts as I thought I was.
After attempting (and failing) to resist the unlimited amount of Christmas goodies and treats that are delivered to my office on a daily basis and that take up residence RIGHT NEXT TO MY DESK.
After a flurry of stress and phone calls at work that has left my head spinning. Which only made me fail more at resisting Christmas cookies.
After realizing it's 3pm and I haven't had lunch yet.
After catching a glimpse of myself in the mirror and seeing just how amazing my hair looks today. And I don't mean that in a good way.
After all that, I needed a laugh. And Alison knew it. Somewhere deep in her heart, her BFF powers kicked in. Thank God.
'Cause nothing gives you perspective like seeing yourself in a ridiculous poofy pink plastic dress.

You really do look amazing in that dress - pink, plastic poofiness and all. Remember the other part of the story? Where we emailed that picture to your mom and told her we found a relacement wedding dress?? That you didn't want the other one, now that you had some "pink magic"...
now go make a girl to your gal-pals on your pink princess phone~!
i totally forgot about that dress! awesome.
