Mmmm.... maybe day after day after day heeheehee<\/p><\/div>\n

I find being myself and true to who I want to be, is an amazingly freeing feeling.\u00a0 It doesn’t matter what others think of me as I’m secure that living my life honestly, even if that is different from the way others do it, makes me happy.\u00a0 Yet being bold me, cougar me, seductive me, comedienne me, entertainer me as well as the usual Good Mother, Office Manager Exemplary, Hilarious Friend tends to lead to something of an interesting reputation.\u00a0 Especially for the people who know, and still like, both those sides of me.<\/p>\n

For example.\u00a0 My Facebook friends tag me or post on my wall anything remotely naughty or Cougar related.\u00a0 One of them, just the other day, messaged me that he saw an episode of Two & a Half Men where Ashton gets picked up by a Cougar who then gives him cab fare when she’s done with him…. and he immediately thought of me.\u00a0 I joked with him, “As a MILF I’d at least send some choc chip cookies home with him!”<\/p>\n

In flirting with another of my Facebook friends we were discussing the merits of vodka over whiskey and I almost type, “Did I ever tell you about the time 6 special forces soldiers tried to teach me the difference between whiskey & bourbon & Scotch?”<\/p>\n

And I stop as that brings to mind a picture of me, lounging in a room, wearing naughty lingerie, surrounded by young, GI Joe types who are eagerly feeding me shot after shot of amber colored liquor.\u00a0 Each wondering who I’ll choose to sleep with or if they’ll all get a chance.\u00a0 Its a very delicious idea and actually not as “impossible” as one might imagine.\u00a0 I’m certain I could easily arrange that.<\/p>\n

If I wasn’t so busy being Good Mom. lol<\/p>\n
