Big Butt and High Waist

Ol’ Faithful. That’s what I am.
Keep me tucked in the back drawer,
Clearly you’re embarrassed.
I’m never there when you’re having fun
-But I’d like to be.
You only drag me out, when no one else is
there.
I’m stuck with the gross jobs.


I am the Granny Panty. I’m worn on long flights, ugly days, as a last resort, and during the detestable period… yeah, I went there.

It seems like everyone I know has a “go-to” granny panty friend; you know, the one Victoria calls every time someone tells her secrets or the one Betsy calls every time she can’t find her Johnson.

Frankly, I’m tired of being the Granny Panty. I don’t want to be called just to pick your hott ass up -when you’re skizzered somewhere on Hollywood Blvd. I don’t want to be called to just “hang out” when it’s convenient for you because you’ve been ditched. I want to be invited to go clubbing. I want to be pulled out of the drawer first, with the pretty lacy things –not crinkled in the corner (waiting for your next menstrual cycle).

But at least I can recognize myself as a Granny Panty.

I’m not one of the naïve ladies looking blankly into the mirror trying to convince myself with a mental conversation/mantra/monologue of, “I’m such a good friend! They’d so be there for me.”

Ignorance is bliss right?  Cough, cough.

  1. You have a great comic voice. I can't begin to imagine where this blog will go. That will be the challenge. I have a few ideas. Love the graphics and the aesthetic of your blog!
