Goodbye hiking pants :(
Me and my fiance recently got into hiking around the different parks on weekends. After the first 3 weekends I decided to go and treat myself to some breezy hiking pants so I wouldn't keep getting my 'office' pants dirty before the start of the week.

Chicken Peanut Stew

"You could do better."
I was at a party this weekend and a girl said to my fiance right in front of my face "you could do better.... oh wow, did I just say that?". My fiance told her that she crossed a line and he was pretty mad. She was drunk and stupid, but it still stung a lot since I have insecurities about my weight and I'm often concerned…
