She took great pains to choose the skirt. Artsy, with careless strokes of sunflowers right above the knee. She ironed it crisply, laid it out on the bed with attentive care, and held her breath as she slipped it on straight. Sitting primly in the car, she didn’t budge an inch for fear of a lone crinkle. It worked. The sunflowers arrived at their destination as fresh as daisies.
“Boy, that was good, wasn’t it?” he said afterward, as they lay on their backs, reclaiming their breath. With damp, crushed, yellow petals strewn around her thighs, she nodded ever so imperceptibly.

Hey OJ
Long time no see. Don’t remember? Okay, we were in the mutual admiration society while desperately praying to win the Caferati/Livejournal contest. Still don’t remember? Never mind then.
Lovely little story in this post. Caught up with other posts. No point in inane commenting like ‘this was hilarious’ etc.
Hope to follow your rants going forward. If the ‘day-job’ permits. Love to balem everything on the day job!! 😉
Cheers
