Skinny people seem to be "comfortable" wherever they want. Today, I had my sister in law's graduation from college. We went to the PNC Arena in Raleigh, NC for the event...
I use to frequently visit the arena when I was skinnier but this was my first time being a chubster. I could fit in the seat without squeezing over but my knees hit the chair in front of me. I looked around and it seemed every one's knees were hitting or coming close to.
SkinnyHusband was comfortable apparently. His great aunt who was sitting next to me was not comfortable either. I didn't think much about it until his grandparents came in and sat down next to us. His grandfather is very tall and knees weren't hitting but everyone looked "squeezed in" to me. His grandmother leaned over and said to me "With this many people, at least they found a comfortable place to sit!"
It hit me then, the skinny people looked like their knees would hit any second but they were actually comfortable. It was us chubby bunnies that couldn't stand the seats. By the time my other sister in law graduates, I plan on being thin enough to be comfortable in those seats...I've got 8 years to get there and I will but I refuse to be "squeezed in" again.
