Miss Maybelle made me do it

A challenge has been issued; the gauntlet thrown down.

"Here's a challenge to all who wish to accept: Try to bring sexy back. Report. 500 words or less. Good Luck! (Successes and failures welcomed equally. Roll Up The Rugs is not responsible for any injury due to attempts to bring sexy back. Pictures appreciated.)" (visit: Roll Up The Rugs for more info)

How I am bringing sexy back (in 500 word or less)

1. I wake up everyday. Dead isn't sexy.
2. I shower nearly daily. Sometimes twice a day to make up for those Wednesdays when I just don't wanna put out all that effort. Smelly isn't sexy.
3. I smiled at a homeless man, and then he threw a bagel at my car. Mean isn't sexy.
4. I eat ice cream when cute boyfriend says at 8pm, "I think we deserve it." Depriving yourself isn't sexy.
5. I don't hold grudges. Bitter isn't sexy.
6. I laugh like I really mean it. Fake isn't sexy.
7. I let people merge, and try to consider slow drivers my speeding ticket saviors. Impatience isn't sexy.
8. I do stuff like this cause it makes me happy. Unhappy isn't sexy.

But ya know what is sexy? Unbridled joy. Kindness. Love. Confidence. Tolerance. And a great pair of heels.

Very sexy indeed. I may make the elimination of impatience my aim for the week.

VERY nice! I'm sorry I didn't find this sooner, my computer was sabotaged. I think that you are the only one out there who accepted the challenge, and accepting challenges is very sexy indeed. Oh man, a woman who laughs loud, eats icecream, and wears heels? Now THAT is SEXY!!!! If I had a prize, you woulda won it.
