Loath as I am to move the discussion away from thigh-high boots, I would like to point out that some women have charms not limited to luscious legs. As **Rue** pointed out, we are a good-hearted, intelligent bunch, capable of witty conversation and deeply philosophical discussions. In this day and age, do we really need to focus on a woman’s legs? My own legs, well, they could not compete with the gams of **Wintermute, Lissla, LifeOnWry, Taters** or **Tupug** , but if you were to raise your eyes a bit–not that far, you idiot, I’m not talking about my eyes! Something low cut and slinky, or perhaps casual and prone to revealing glimpses? You may be able to cover up good legs, but my assets are in plain view at all times, and don’t need seams or boots to set them off. My cups runnth over, as they say, and in combination with my long, naturally curly hair and startlingly quick brain, I’m a match for thigh-high boots (or butless chaps) any day of the week! Now, just where did we store that defibulator? ---

I’m back from Houston in time to say Happy Rue-Day!!! to my #1 Special Friend in the whole, wide MMP. I also want to say that while in Houston, I dined (OK, ate BBQ) with 4 Dopers and one adorable Doper Daughter. Envy me, all! That one evening made up for the 2 crappy days of crappy training. So, didja miss me? ---

Actually, my cups are rather “full” too. The hubby has certain shirts that he likes me to wear, especially if the shirts have plunging necklines. 😉 The uh, “upper” assets are much better features than the gams, which is why I don’t own a short skirt! I am no slacker in the brains department and have a lovely, thick full head of luscious golden, reddish, brunette hair. Man, I’m kinda embarrassed now! What the heck am I doing to trying brag up my assets here? :o ---

I can’t even \*begin \*to compete with thigh-high boots, low-cut and slinky tops and butless chaps! ☹ You’re all going to have to teach me about dressing sexy. 😃 Wow, I had no idea that the MMP had been around so long. I’m such a newbie! In the good news column, we didn’t get the snow here that they’d predicted so the bf’s on the plane and on his way here. YAY!! I need a cool name for the bf… I’m open to creative suggestions. ---

Darlin’, ya don’t put hair like mine in pigtails. It tumbles down my back–a golden, rippling cascade of shining glory–and spills over my shoulders to curl softly amidst my bounty.

Please, I’ve got nice legs _and_ I’m racked.
