This girl’s still got it
May 9, 2008 – 1:05 amThis afternoon I am sitting at a red light on my way to pick up CJ at preschool. My window is down and I’m singing along to Sheryl Crow while enjoying a light breeze and the cozy warmth of the sun.
All I wanna do is have some fun…
I am jolted out of my reverie by a shrill whistle. Then I hear someone yell;
“WOOHOO, hello girl!”
I turn in shocked surprise and find myself staring directly into the wolfish grin of a man leaning out the passenger side of an old van. He is checking me out.
I can’t even remember the last time this happened.
Ok, so actually I can… which is probably even more pathetic.
The van drives on and I sit up straighter. I find that I’m singing with extra enthusiasm and even throwing in a head wobble here and there.
This girl’s still got it. Uh huh Uh huh.
It’s official, I’ve achieved a new low in this journey called life.

You go, girl! This is much better than what thrills me, which is getting carded at the grocery store by a clerk who is younger than me.

That’s not low.
I bow my head in shame while admitting to getting dolled up on occasion to visit the local Home Depot when I’m in need of an Ego boost.
Now THAT’S low!

Nothing wrong with a little self validation from a complete stranger.

That is so funny! Thanks for visiting my blog and commenting on it… I love comments! And I know, this weather is crazy the way it keeps switching from rain to sun. I’ve only lived in the Seattle area a year and a half now, so I’m still getting used to it. Love it though!

That’s a high, girl.

That’s all most as good as being carded-though I haven’t experienced that in a few years, but I always stand at the checkout line hopeful like a puppy.

This is great. You’ve still got it! I loved the “wolfish grin” description, by the way.

Sometimes, even if the person paying the compliment is smarmy and disgusting, sadly, it’s still an ego booster because SOMEONE noticed that you’re still a woman!
I get it. For sure.

The only guys who check me out anymore are skanky construction workers who look at anything with two legs and boobs.
