Body image...
[Tugging on the zipper to a red dress that would make Jessica Rabbit proud...if America could just get to zip up over her hips.]
Sometimes, you can't always get what you want or what you think you need.
[She grunts and tugs her zipper again.] And sometimes that dress from thirty years ago just ain't gonna fit...even if it fit just last year!
I try not to worry about, yanno? It could have shrank just as much as I grew.
So just cause your bathing suit and stuff from last year don't fit, it don't mean you're old or fat. Twenty-seven is the new seventeen and two hundred thirty-six is the new one hundred thirty six.
[She takes a long, deep breath, sucking her stomach in and yanks the zipper one more time. Ziiiiiip! Over her hips and now securely dressed.]
Ha! [Small ripping noise. Oops!] Oh damn. Well, anyway. Point is, you still got it. Now put on that bathing suit and get groomed for that pool party. I'm going to carefully pull myself out of this and call a seamstress. What we got is great, and we are both gonna look hot for my birthday...if a little cheap this year.
