My mom loves the song Brickhouse. Who doesn't? It's a super catchy song and I never really listened to the lyrics until tonight. I knew the song was about a girl with a killer body, that's just common sense...I just never inspected the lyrics, and processed what it meant.
Here are the lyrics incase you don't know them:
She's a brick house, she's mighty mighty
And just lettin' it all hang out and she's a brick house
And like lady's stacked and that's the fact
Ain't holding nothing back, she's a brick house
We're here together everybody knows
This is how the story goes
And just lettin' it all hang out and she's a brick house
And like lady's stacked and that's the fact
Ain't holding nothing back, she's a brick house
We're here together everybody knows
This is how the story goes
She knows she's got everything
That a woman needs to get a man
How can she lose with the sex she use
36-24-36, what a winning hand
That a woman needs to get a man
How can she lose with the sex she use
36-24-36, what a winning hand
She's a brick house, she's mighty mighty
And she's lettin' it all hang out and she's a brick house
And like lady's stacked and that's the fact
Ain't holding nothing back she's a brick house
Yeah she's the one, the only one built like an Amazon
And she's lettin' it all hang out and she's a brick house
And like lady's stacked and that's the fact
Ain't holding nothing back she's a brick house
Yeah she's the one, the only one built like an Amazon
The clothes she wears, her sexy ways
Make a old man wish for younger days
She knows she's built and knows how to please
Sure enough to knock a strong man to his knees
Make a old man wish for younger days
She knows she's built and knows how to please
Sure enough to knock a strong man to his knees
'Cause she's a brick house yeah she's mighty mighty
Just lettin' it all hang out a brick house
And like lady's stacked and that's the fact
Ain't holding nothing back
Just lettin' it all hang out a brick house
And like lady's stacked and that's the fact
Ain't holding nothing back
Brick house yeah she's mighty mighty
And just lettin' it all hang out
Brick house yeah she's the one the only one
Built like a Amazon yeah
And just lettin' it all hang out
Brick house yeah she's the one the only one
Built like a Amazon yeah
Shake it down, shake it down, shake it down
Oh well brick house
Oh well brick house
I like the lyrics. All up until he says her measurements. 36-24-36, the perfect woman. I'd love to be that size. I never will be. My body is bountifully blessed in certain areas that my personal frame wouldn't handle these measurements. Does this mean I'm not a brickhouse?? Uh no.
I'm a brickhouse in my own right. No, none of the lyrics in the song apply to me. I suppose I am mighty, mighty like a mighty kids meal at Mcdonald's. Full of fun, a little pricey and more to love than a normal happy meal. I am killer at other things though. I haven't had a song written about me though, maybe someday in the future that could happen. I need to make that happen. I know, back on track. I am a super artsy person. Honestly, I've never done many art things I wasn't really good at. I know a little bragging, but that never hurt anyone. I love drawing, painting, sewing, crocheting, knitting, spinning, and I can just keep going on and on. I'm a great talker. I'm a brickhouse at that. I'm good at different things, I'm just not a perfect brickhouse body....yet. (Or at least close to my personal brickhouse body goal)
I am definitely proud of who I am. I have done a lot in my life. I've been married & divorced. I've been all over the world. I've met amazing people and I'm still meeting them everyday. I remember in the movie Pride and Prejudice they talk about an accomplished woman. I feel I'm accomplished. I'm happy with where I am at this point. Weight wise, no, I'm not. I looked at myself in a picture yesterday, and it makes me sad. I know, no pity parties. I didn't throw myself a pity party, it made me work that much harder today in dance class. I wasn't feeling the greatest this morning, I had swimmer's ear, I had a horrible headache, but every time I wanted to give up and go sit in the lobby for a few minutes, I kept trucking on. I know I need to keep pushing through. I was miserable this morning when I woke up. I missed a few days last week with the holiday, working on organizing my craft room(that's a job in itself), so I knew today, I definitely needed to get there. SO I went, fought through the pain. I love the idea of being able to go even when I'm sick. After I was done, my swimmer's ear had stopped bothering me, the medicine finally worked, and I still had a headache, but I felt amazing.
So I'm one step closer to my goal. I'm one step closer to overcoming those feelings when I don't want to get up and go workout, because I love every minute of the hour. For those who are fighting the same issues I am, while I'm still working on losing weight, I found some amazing clothing designers for plus size women's clothes.
First: And maybe my next post, I'll rant about the sizing chart she uses. It's definitely a little disturbing for me. It's cheap for a great dress too!

Super cute clothes from both of these designers!

I LOVE reading your blog! I really look forward to your posts! I don't always comment because I'm not good at writing or expressing myself in English. I wish I was good at talking and expressing myself as good as you! English is my second language. I do why I can, but sometimes is just not that easy! You are AWESOME! keep up the good work :D
