Delia dearest…I have to inform you there’s a new player on the scene who can’t only cook, but use a mop like a pole dancing queen and run a household like no other…and Nigella darling, there’s someone else who can lick chocolate off a spoon with enough sex appeal to make the prim and proper blush… Oh, and Kim, you may have done a killer job in 9 1/2 Weeks, but you have, I’m sorry to say, not watched me clean a shower. Naked. Now there’s something that would make it last for at least 10 weeks.
What was I doing today? Finding my sex appeal of course! I was cooking, baking and cleaning. All day long. I managed to do some grocery shopping too in the local fruit and veg place, but that’s about it. I was a householding queen and somewhere along the way I realized that’s sexy. I always used to think the opposite.
I grew up as a geek, thinking I had to become cool somehow so that I would get to play with the other kids and kiss my Prince Charming. I was determined to make it, but I’m not sure what that meant, apart from rich, famous and stylish as hell. I have a few affinities with a certain posh spicy lady. I read somewhere that she doesn’t smile because she thinks her smile looks bad and although I’m sure all actresses and people constantly in the media know their angles…in life, what makes us beautiful is when we are enjoying ourselves. That’s sexy. When I was camping in Ojai, with a hairstyle resembling women in the stone age, throwing myself (in not too flattering ways) off ropes (you know the kind hanging off trees you can dangle in) into sparkling green water, laughing like a kid, I’m sure I didn’t look the same as I did when I was in my black mini dress and sky-high heels at Sky Bar…but was I sexy? Hell yes. Who can resist happiness?
Cool people believe in themselves, not because they have all the answers, but because they know they have as much right to be here as the guy next door. Cool people are too busy living and enjoying life to have time to put themselves, or others down. They are cool, because they think they are cool, as they are, yet they are humble, loving beings who are experiencing life as it is and doing their best to make the best of themselves and their path.
Sex appeal comes from bringing out who we are and making that shine. On that note: I’m gonna have some more red wine, chocolate cake and curl up in my super sassy bed with my MacBook. Geeky? Absofuckinglutely… Sexy? Mmmm…
So you had Rourke and I have my mop…but I’m sure we’ve both got the moves…LOL!
