"It's a strange mourning process I can't really discuss openly with others, mainly because people our age often don't plan as meticulously as we do."
I think the reason she can't really discuss it openly with others is because she has no friends due to being so stunningly insufferable that nobody can tolerate more than a 30 second conversation with her.
I find it incredibly sad and overly dramatic that one high school boy's comments about her "road map" legs have prevented her from wearing shorts since. And no matter what the article claims, she doesn't sound that okay with that decision.
She supposedly came within arm's length of dying in childbirth and she discovered that what's most important in life is....a big house??
Yeah... these two perspectives don't wash together at.all. I'm confused as to who she's trying to be and when.
She also wrote a piece about being OK with her body no matter what kind of bulges it has, which seems to directly contradict her "i'll never wear shorts" piece. Soooo...

I am SO confused by her. Nothing makes any sense, least of all how she keeps getting published. Maybe I should have tried harder to be a pro writer? Pretty sure my random blog posts are better written than her published pieces.

Although she did not pass up the opportunity to mention that she still wears the same size now that she did in 10th grade, the last time she wore shorts -- and apparently still had the shorts? So she totally COULD have tried them on if she'd wanted.
Man, I would feel terribly down on myself if I was basing my feelings about my body in my 30s on what I thought in 10th grade, when I wasn't even all the way through puberty, hadn't had kids, and didn't appreciate how rockin' my body was at the time.

Yours 100% ARE better. Take that FWIW from someone who does write for a living.
