In my world, if you and I become friends, I make you sign a contract that clearly states that nothing that comes out of my mouth is EVER TMI. It covers MY ass and it saves you the embarrassment of thinking that I am CLEARLY off my rocker at times. Because let's face it...sometimes I walk a VERY fine line!
I understand that not all of you reading this have taken the time to read the fine print. So, I will allow you to jump ship at anytime our delicate blogger/bloggee relationship gets too...um...buddy-buddy...and...intimate for your less than prurient sensibilities. (so, I'm a few months late issuing this escape hatch...oops!)
The phrase "Let me slip into something more comfortable" came up in conversation the other day, believe it or not. I was talking to a male friend of mine and he created (NOT for us, for pete's sake) this Fabio-on-the-cover-romance-novel-worthy-scenerio complete with bearskin rug, rose petals, strawberries and champagne (with the leading lady whispering the aforementioned phrase...) and while I was impressed at his attempt to describe his version of a seduction scene (that didn't involve beer, a TV remote and a Hawks game), I had to chuckle. Something more comfortable? Like other then my "I ♥ My Boys" t-shirt and yoga pants?? Oh, you mean I need to shed my comfy clothes and put on that latex corset with the thong panties and 5 inch hooker boots? I'm right on that. And last I heard, the Cubs were gonna win the World Series.
Let me tell you how it goes at my house. Text: Be over in 10. Me: K. {for those of you playing along at home, that was foreplay} 10 minutes later: front door opens, followed by complete silence punctuated briefly by the groans of attempting to get out of my skinny jeans and a shriek as my foot steps on a Power Ranger Apezord (DO NOT call it a Monkeyzord). 13.385 minutes later: complete silence after the front door is shut and re-locked. 15 minutes later: groan of satisfaction as I plop on the couch in my holey AC/DC shirt and NU sweats. 15.8965 minutes later: lost in the fascination that is prime time television.
What? You think I can make this stuff up???
Yes, yes I can. The rooms of my house have seen less action then Bernie Madoff's wife. I'd be in a world of hurt if it weren't for my imagination. (And the Energizer bunny.)
But let's pretend there is a moral, a lesson to be learned from my imaginative tale. Should you ever get that "K" text from me (hypothetically, of course) you better come prepared with pliers. I don't wear these jeans just because they make my legs look good; they're my something more comfortable.
