psynapse

one of our regular customers came into the shop i work at today. this guy, pedro, hadn't been in in awhile, because for the winter he goes back to his home country (i think it's peru). so i'm on the phone with someone, and he says to my boss (who is standing literally 6 inches away from me) "what happened to brian? he's so fat now! he needs to stop eating so much!". i totally lost track of what the guy on the phone was saying, to the point where he said "hello? are you there?" although pedro is right, i just thought that was pretty rude and not the nicest way to phrase it. maybe it's a cultural thing. maybe i'm just extra touchy about my weight. in any case, i'll take that as a sign i need to GET OFF MY ASS and start seriously trying to lose weight. except, i know that as worked up about it as i am right now, in 2 hours i will have slipped back into my unhealthy eating habits and continue along on the fat train to heart attack town. i think it's inevitable. the end for now.
