DUH.

It just occurred to me that I never posted an update to explain the "shrinking" commentary.

As you may know, I work for a wedding/event florist as an assistant. During wedding season (April-ish to November-ish), there is a LOT of physical activity; climbing and descending stairs laden with crates full of heavy-a** water-and-flower-filled vases, breaking down and schlepping great piles of cardboard boxes to recycling, etc. Well, it turns out that this is an extremely effective weight loss/exercise regime, because over the past year, I lost over 30 pounds. 9" of that was off my butt. Seriously.

So now you know...

The Rest of the Story.
Good Day.
