I’m getting ready for bed and hoping to get some sleep as I have to be up at one in the morning because my sister is crazy and wants to be at the nascar track at 4am. The reason being they are giving away Truck garage passes for the first 500 people to show up. I’m thinking even at 4am there is going to be a line up as there are many campgrounds for the track.

So really I may be getting up at 1 am for nothing really. Sunday I believe we are leaving then too. That I get though. I’m not really that excited about the garage area as my niece is coming with us and I will probably be the one watching her and making sure she doesn’t run off.

Over the weekend I was working hard doing an audit. It happened to be at a movie theater so I got to see some interesting things. One thing I noticed was actually 2 young girls in the bathroom. This sounds weird I know, but here is the story.

I had just finished washing my hands when two young girls about 9-12 walked in. The immediately started looking in the mirror and playing with their hair. One girl looked at the other and said “you look fat.” the other went. “What! do I?” Then she proceeded to look at herself even more. Both girls continued to fix their hair and look in the mirror. As I walked out I heard one girl say “I hope I’m never as fat as her.” Now I hope she’s never as big as I am, but you still wonder about girls that age when they say things like they said. What is happening to them. I’m sorry at that age you should be excited to see a movie, not worrying about if your fat or not. I blame parents and TV. That it. Some parents don’t even realize they are doing this to their young girls, but I know girls that age copy what they see around them.

I am wondering though is this normal? I’m I just completely out of the loop when it comes to that age and their looks? My nice is just a little younger and she’s a bigger girl. Not really fat, just big. I worry she’s going to have issues with girls like this.
