feed the fat girls spaghetti and send one on her way

Feb 16, 2024

Valentine’s night, Katie and I talked about our next “fat chicks” diet start date while we ate spaghetti for dinner. Knowing restaurants would be packed for the special day, that was a dish I could throw together easily enough considering we were both hungry.

It was Katie’s last night before her big move to Tennessee. I didn’t take one photo of her although I’m not sure why I didn’t think of it. We hugged but neither of us cried. While I miss her already, I’m not sad! I’m thrilled she has what sounds like the perfect opportunity for a fresh, new, and exciting adventure. And Sevierville simply isn’t like she’s moving to the moon.

*Said in my best Bugs Bunny voice* — Bon Voyage-e Katie! 😎

While I didn’t cry, I couldn’t help myself from issuing warnings. The primary one was “don’t be stupid.” I even said it again once she was packed and on her way…

Now you know: Nicolas Cage has spent $150 million on 15 homes (including one haunted mansion), two islands, a dinosaur skull, a Lamborghini, exotic pets and a rare vintage comic book. (I’m guessing no one told him, “don’t be stupid.”)
