Unskinny

"You were much smaller last year, Jon," Lam said.

"Huh?"

"I was setting up a camcorder last year, and had some video of you at your desk. You were a lot smaller back then."

Ouch. Not something you're expecting to hear every day. And nothing you like to have repeated.

So I watched the video. And Lam was right. My face looked thinner. And I was actually smiling. Maybe I had shaved that morning. Maybe a trick of the light or the angle. But I was smaller.

And now I have this voice in the back of my head. "Shouldn't you be eating more salad and less pizza?" But I like pizza! "Shouldn't you do some more cardio today?" But I hate running! "Maybe a smaller piece of pie?" I LIKE PIE!

(sigh)

I like pie.
