Conversations Around the Cube

Me to Lulu: "Hey, let me show you what I got for Mother's Day!" I walk in her office, proudly displaying my spiffy new collapsible Tupperware bowl.

Lulu: "Wow.. I LIKE that! I'll have to get me some of those."

I stood there for a moment, looking at the bowl, then at Lulu.

Me: "Ya know.. it used to be nights filled with alcohol, assorted illegal substances and long-haired headbangers in spandex, wearing eyeliner and a crap load of hairspray that got me all hot and bothered. Now... it's Tupperware. I have REALLY got to get out of the house."

I slinked away as Lulu nodded in agreement. Back at my desk, I popped my earbuds in and cranked up the Metallica.

Yep, we're getting old aren't we? The thing I look forward to the most is taking my bra off...and not for anyone to see what's underneath, either!

I'm a Pampered Chef junkie, myself. A little pricey, but hey...It's not like I get out much either.

It's sad isn't it? The last time I got hot and bothered is when I bought the new bath towels.

WE ARE NOT OLD! We are mature! For mature audiences only was always a sexy thing.

Girlfriend, you need to go to Kattfest with me, first weekend of August, Oklahoma City, and we'll check out the new and old bevy of long-haired rockers!!

They still get me hot and bothered. To hell with Tupperware, lets rock!
