Hotter than the Monte Carlo fire

Tonight is Friday night, which is lady's night-- and the feeling's right. I am so close to my wild weekend I am OOOZING wickedness.

We only have 3 kids tonight. That's right baby-- 3 kids, one of whom hides out in his room editing movies, another who may or may not entertain himself with his DS, and the third is a high-maintenance toddler who might visit her electronic babysitter this evening (via "Mulan" or "Aladdin"). EASY STREET is laid out before me, like miles of... uhm... pavement. Really easy pavement.

First, I plan on coming home, stripping down, and rinsing the work/computer stink off my supple-yet-drooping body. Then, I have an old pair of leggings and a stained old t-shirt all clean and waiting for my sexy self to adorn. Finally, hair thrown up in a messy bun (men like buns), make-up free and glass of cheap wine in hand, I plan on ROCKING OUT the Rock Band, baby. And do the sexy dance.

HOT.

Kilptrick & Beatty had textual relations

The recent furor over the mayor of Chicago having relations with his chief of staff-- and both lying about it while under oath-- is generally one of those stories I would ignore. And when I say ignore, I mean it in the *search-it-out-on-Google, read-what-I-can, comment-on-it- with-friends-passing-mild-judgement-while-trying-to-cover-my-karma-tracks-qualifying-my-opinon* kind of way.

Except there's that one part that makes me cringe.

That one part that I can relate to so well it makes me blush.

I will admit, I am no saint. I, too, have had textual relations. And ohmyGAWD I think I would fall over and die if anyone OTHER than my intended read them, let alone have them subpoenaed and read in a court of law, to the media and in full and complete access of my mother.

Frankly I think what goes on between two consenting adult's mobile devices is between those two consenting adults and that the government, or one's children -- in a moment of "I'm helpful, let me read this message you just got on your phone" spontaneity-- should never interfere.

And I think any normal, healthy adult person who's had amazing, consensual adult monkey-text knows exactly what I mean.
