Flat Stanley has been tagged with the Sexy Blogger award. Being of a good nature, and appreciating the touch, Flat Stanley investigated first, what the heck a meme is, since the person who tagged her (Karen) is someone who FS doesn't mind humoring every now and then. Oh! There you are, Karen. I was just talking about you. ;-)
A meme (pronounced /miːm/ - rhyming with "dream"), a postulated unit or element of cultural ideas, symbols or practices, gets transmitted from one mind to another through speech, gestures, rituals, or other imitable phenomena.
Cultural ideas, symbols and practices that identify FS as "sexy."
- Hair. Hey. For an old lady, FS is vainly holding her own. Aiming for a beautiful head of silver, FS gamely pays a hairdresser to camouflage the transition from childhood blonde to 30-something dark to woops-that's-lotta-white-you-got-coming-in-at-the-temples.
- Physique. FS is blessed with a body that is recognized in her culture as acceptable. Some would say cute. Many would kill for. Not boob-acious in any stretch of the imagination, and not even curvaceous, but lithe. And lithe works for FS.
- Powerful. The little woman is a five-star general disguised as that nice little lady who lives on the corner and is universally addressed as "Mam" by small children and growed up 30-somethings alike.
- Feminine. Can you belive it? FS has always thought of herself so far from feminine that she feared being mistaken for butch. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Turns out that people see FS as incredibly composed and, therefore, lady-like. Heh. Little do they realize that FS learned that by observing other powerful women. OK, FS owns it: She's feminine and don't you dare fuck with her.
- Universal. FS gets along with just about everybody except for self-sabotaging morons who swaddle themselves in the filth of their own dysfunctionalities. All that high-falutin' talk about love and acceptance stops right there at the door. But, hey, the reality is that people generally enjoy being around high-energy, eternally optimistic, simultaneously cranky people such as Flat Stanley.

ROCK ON, FS!!! You are beyond cool. You are the best!!!
My cousin OWNS sexy!!!
I loved this. LOVED IT.
you are the bomb!
Hmm, when I think of my sister I think of that skinny kid with big muscles, skinned knees and a cast on her arm as she swims in the creek trying to keep the durned thing dry.
Sexy? Never thought of it, but danged impressive!
AND you ROCK! :)
I intend to be at least half as or twice as sexy as you are when I'm you're age :-P
And you definitely gave me the genes for it ;)
well, MiniMe...shucks.
OMG!!! It's a mini cousin!!! COOL.
Karen, it gets better. MiniMi's youngest is actually a miniME more than she is a mini of her own mommy. :-)
True, Karen. It's weird. I think I'm actually a mini-second cousin to Karen, right FS?
And yes, my youngest looks like she was cloned from FS.. which means she's probably going to be the coolest, toughest human EVER! ;) ((Eventually ruling the world with a genetically predispositioned iron fist, but also a REAL motorcycle and a fairy wand!))
lessee, MiniFS...i dunno what you would be. i think that Karen's great grandfather was a brother of my grandfather or something like that. Which makes us distant cousins removed by x degrees or something.
