Before we get started let me fess up right here and now: Linda noted we should be sure to add a disclaimer up top if our post is NSFW and I’m all NSFW? What’s NSFW?
Cue google. Go ahead, try it.
Bwahahahaha!!!!
Sorry, had to be done. I’m fairly certain my post will be entirely safe for work as long as your boss doesn’t mind you reading blogs on your down time.
I will say Linda tossed a softball my way with “body parts” except in what world do all of you want to read about my achy, tired, cranky knee and enraged back? No world, that’s the one. So it looks like we’re taking the nontraditional route here.
I’m fairly certain I have the bumpiest, knobbiest, gawkiest knees on the planet. I always have but I hoped at some point I’d grow out of it. Like maybe dorky knobby knees are a rite of middle school, sometimes they even drag into high school, but surely legs will even out post-graduation…And it turns out that’s a big fat no. My knobby knees followed me straight into adulthood then into middle age and beyond.
I see women with these flowing gazelle legs and they’re like — well, at the risk of sounding weird it’s like water flowing gently downhill. Soft, simple movements without any weird angles. I’m betting if they have to kneel down and grab something from under the bed they don’t have sharp shooting pains…ladies with the gazelle legs are lucky indeed.
Linda hosts Stream of Consciousness Saturday. This week’s prompt is “body parts.” Pick a body part and talk about it.
I think my even more knobbly knees are are unique streamlining genetic adaptation.

I have a theory that everybody has something weird about their body. Some people, like models, etc. are just good at hiding or fixing it. And that’s just on the outside. What’s inside is most important, so I tell myself.

I’m sure your dogs don’t care what those legs look like when they curl up next to them or rest their weary heads on them.
As long as they hold me up and let me bend and kneel, I’ll be happy with my legs. At my age, that’s all that matters.

Ah those legs! I can only dream of them. But now I don’t even do that. I have my sturdy legs, which I need to carry my weight.

I have always told myself my legs are strong and fast and that would have to do.

And they do the job. So we should be happy with that.
