Winner winner, (fried) chicken dinner. She'll keep claiming her health struggles are sudden or temporary. She can't admit to herself that she's living her new reality of fat-induced disability.What is going on is she’s outfatted her ability to travel but she mentally hasn’t figured that out yet. Since she’s delusional, she has “unexpected flare-ups” that happen every time she makes plans.
You see a much sadder version of this when someone is very elderly and won't admit they can't do the things they used to do. Grandpa "can't get around to it this time", but he says his doctor thinks the new medication...blah blah blah. It's denial.
That's what I was thinking at first - she never bought the tickets but wanted to claim she was going anyway.I’m not sure she was ever going.
But then I remembered how much money Anna is willing to blow on flattering self-delusion. She'll buy tickets to a 10k run states away from her that she has zero chance of ever running. She's like those politicians who blow money on a "Presidential Exploratory Committee" to see if they should run, but its obvious they couldn't get elected Class Clown in a kindergarten while handing out free candy.
