Dear Pink Panties

A little something personal to get things started.

Dear Pink Panties, with your lace trim and cool cotton front, you sassy thong you, I just want to take a minute to thank you.

Thanks, babe, for giving me the courage to tackle some pretty intense things in my life. Although you’re no longer with me, because we’re talking eight, ten years ago, and I don’t keep panties that long (anymore), I think of you often.

Remember that time in Mississippi when we went on our first date since ditching the husband, and how you knew I said yes to that guy in WalMart out of desperation to break the seal? But you said nothing.
