In case anybody's interested...

I'm learning to color outside the line..ON PURPOSE..and it's very liberating..

For a middle-aged woman, it's called RELEASING YOUR INNER TEEN-AGER...

I'm learning to SPEED in my car..that is...

I'm learning to CUSS..not real, real "BAD WORDS"..hope Georgia's not listening...

Lots of other things that are unmentionable..

Are there any other LADIES out there "FEELING..WHERE I AM COMING FROM"....

It's called the EMANCIPATION OF MIMI.."JUST MAKING THE MOST OF LIFE"(Mariah Carey)

Three high fives and one pinkie wiggle to Mimi's Inner Teenager...Mitty, I call her.

<img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Sounds marvelously fun and daring...like getting to know yourself without judgment, huh?

'Course, you in your pink convertible caddi with the sunglasses on and matching accessories smacked of a marvelous Mitty already.

You always inspire me, Mimi.

Thank you,

LA

Mimi, I was BORN to color outside the lines. The life lesson for ME was learning that not every rule was MADE TO be broken! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

mimi,

I'm like Mel in that I am just now learning to color inside the lines...and it's almost as exciting as learning to be bad, in a backwards sort of way.

Isn't is Mel? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I'm dating around, not sleeping around.

I'm using creative adjectives more, and swearing like a sailor less.

Dressing more conservatively, and saying no to any tatoos (although I won't give up my belly-button ring).

Wearing cute little Nike slipons and t-shirts instead of three inch spikes.

Leaving my hair brown, instead of bleaching it out like a hooker.

Trying to date guys who are spiritual, or at least searching and who actually care about their affect on others and the world in general.

And I have to say I get way more attention from the guys being this new conservative me then I did before. So don't go changing too much mimi...but do have a good time and enjoy being a woman.

When I read this thread of yours I had to laugh out loud...it is just so you mimi! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Unfortunately, too old/too late to change too much..but I certainly regret all that I have been missing...

3 inch spikes...I did recently buy those black high heels..but they are only 2 inches.. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />..got rid of all my T-shirts...

Highlignts for me....

I get lots of attention now..I'm not sure why..not because of being more conservative..I think it's the pride in being A WOMAN....comfort with my sexuality ?.. the c'est la vie...look but don't touch...getting the most out of life...probably moreso 'cause of the almost daily workouts-Yuck!..Why this can't be easy and natural? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

I've been thinking about a tatoo, in fact..BELLY-BUTTON RING(?)-hmmmm-but that might be over the top....

Maybe if we keep going towards the extremes, we'll meet someplace in the middle...

Yes, 2long does always say that three lefts make a right...and I never really understood that until now, yes I think this is what he was talking about.

You go left three times, and I'll go right...and maybe we'll end up head-butting. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
