Gratuitous bitchy post

[doyle]

To my mother:

No, for the millionth and (I wish) last time, my weight does not bother me. It bothers you. These two things are vastly different.

Grr.

ETA: And anyway, I'm Festively Plump.

Oh, can I ever relate. From my sister: "You're a pretty girl, under all that."

*crush* *kill* *maim* *destroy*

PS - Your icon is funny. :)

[gobi-rex.livejournal.com]

I love your Connor icon, doyle.

On the mother note, well, it's their job to be like this sometimes. They don't seem to understand that among other things, they're ruining our self esteem because it hurts the most when it's your own mother.

Hang in there.

And yeah, I love that icon *g*

Mothers can be ridiculous sometimes.

[doyle_sb4.livejournal.com]

It bothers me more that she thinks *she's* fat. The hell?

[paratti.livejournal.com]

She sounds like my mother - the woman who dieted at 7 and a half stone, and who's given me grief about my weight ever since I got breast - as they were bigger than hers.
Food Issues. Mother/daughter shit - not fun, I know. ::Hugs::

This is scary because this sounds exactly like my Mom. She just can't stop, she's obsessed with losing weight (and she's really not even plump). And nothing I say penetrates.

Word. *pats own stomach affectionly*
Vive la cake.

[doyle_sb4.livejournal.com]

Hee! And let them eat... tasty stuff.

[ros-fod.livejournal.com]

Your. icon.

*rolls*

And I like plump.

*snuggles*

[doyle_sb4.livejournal.com]

More of me to love, baby *gg*

[missambs.livejournal.com]

Wow your mother sounds like my stepdad.

"You should be on a diet. You should exercise more."

Nooo *you* should leave me alone! *screams*

*cough*

*hugs you*

[maybedarkpink.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry your mom's being nasty. *hugs*

[doyle_sb4.livejournal.com]

*hugs* Ah, I love her to pieces and we actually have a really good relationship, except for certain areas which I wish we could declare Not For Discussion Ever.

[maybedarkpink.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I can totally relate to that. My mom and I are the same way, there are definitely some topics that should be declared off limits!

::gropes doyle::

As long as you, me, connorbeast, and thecount_ha can fit on the bed, who cares? :)

[doyle_sb4.livejournal.com]

Bwah!

I love you.

[circe-tigana.livejournal.com]

Tell Laurie that his little Canadian caribou pines ;)

[doyle_sb4.livejournal.com]

Oh, he will kill you for the name. He so will. *g*

[circe-tigana.livejournal.com]

But I yearn, Doyle! You must intercede on my behalf.

And in other news, Cheeseman ficathon?

Dear lord. I may have to sign up for that one.

[doyle_sb4.livejournal.com]

Do, do! You must sign up, for it is a glorious idea.

Ack. Mothers. Never you you mind.

(Especially the tiny, slim, dark ones whom you clearly didn't get your fair/blond/strong genes from)

[owl]

Mothers...I know. Mine's always on at me and my sister for being too thin. I hope you aren't going anorexic... No, Mother, I eat like a horse.

Maybe we could average ourselves out and get two mother-safe figures *hee*

[drewsilla.livejournal.com]

Mothers can be a bitch, can't they? I'm a "big" girl, too, and my mom always told me growing up that I needed to lose weight or I'd never get married or have babies or anything. No man likes a fat woman is what she told me.

Well, look at me now, Ma! Married with child and still plump. And my hubby likes me this way. Shows my skinny mom what-for!

[doyle_sb4.livejournal.com]

Lol! I considered pointing out that I'm not lacking for male attention, but then she'll start fretting that I'm a big ho *g*
