I wish that I had

the cadence of a lifeguard.

Or a really sensual

librarian. The prettiest

girl I know once told me

that I’d make a good magician’s

assistant. I acted offended,

but secretly I think I’d like to be sawed

in half. I’ve always wanted

to have a sexy job. Ever

since I was a little girl,

I wanted to be a secretary or

a loud hairdresser

who talks with her hands.

Maybe one of those

reptile girls who hold

big snakes at birthday parties.

A flight attendant with

a run in her tights, or

a masseuse with huge

tits that get in the way.
