It's kind of funny... Years ago, when I got to be the same size as my mother (who is by no means svelte), I was horrified. But now, I would kill to be the same size as my mother. I don't look very much like my mother at all; I look more like my father's side of the family (my relatives always say that I look just like my father's sister).
My mother at least has a decent sense of my taste in clothing. I hate most of the clothes she wears; she buys a lot of her clothes and jewelry from art fairs, while I wear almost exclusively plain, dark clothes. I absolutely hate shopping, and because of that, I have a very limited wardrobe. Sometimes, this annoys/embarrasses her so much that she goes out and buys me clothes :) For someone with such completely different taste in clothing, she does a remarkably good job finding clothes that I'll wear (and I'm actually very picky).
Oh wow... what's wrong with me? I just said something nice about my mother!!!
