Dear Mr. (or perhaps Ms. - but a woman would have known better) President of Sticky Boobs, Inc.,
Despite the fact that there was no acknowledgement to my previous correspondence last January, I find that I am once-again at your mercy. . . begging you to take some action on my behalf. And, yes, the reason for my correspondence does have to do with the stickiness of your product. . . but not in the manner of which you and I spoke last year. (Well, I spoke. You never saw fit to reply. )
This time I would like to simply ask the following question:
If your boobs are so sticky, why - then - do they not stick around?
Wait. Let me state that more succinctly. Why do your sticky boobs not stick around where they belong?
For, Mr. (or perhaps, Ms. - but a woman would have known better) President of Sticky Boobs, Inc., it appears that whenever your sticky boobs are needed by one of my three daughters, they are no where to be found. Sadly, it seems, those little rascals are often carelessly left at a friend's house after a big sleepover. . . buried deep in the recesses of the dog's crate (Don't blame her. She's a retriever!) . . . or - as is most-often the case - smushed in the closet or suitcase of another daughter. And guess who it is who ends up having to shell out yet-more money on her daughters' boobs, Mr. President?
That's right. Me.
Case in point. . .
Just the other day I was forced to leave my sick bed in order to drive Ponzi to the corset shop so she could spend a whopping $48 of my money on a set of your push-up-enhanced sticky boobs. (Yes, I know Ponzi has her license, but the Spin Family has been short a car ever since Veggie's accident - may Percy rest in peace - and all of my daughters refuse to drive my 1999 minivan, but I guess that's a story for another day . . .) When I inquired as to the whereabouts of the countless other boobs I had purchased for Ponzi in the past, I was informed that Trigger took all of the good sticky boobs back to college with her, Mom! And, although Trigger may have left some bad boobs behind in the wake of her departure, no decent mother worth her salt would entrust her teenage daughter's decency at a rock concert in the heart of New York City to a pair of bad (or shall I say sticky-challenged?) boobs!
So I ask you. . . . Should it be my fault if Trigger has sticky fingers in the sticky boob department?
I think not.
In fact, I think it's your fault Mr. (or perhaps Ms - but a woman would definitely have know better) President of Sticky Boobs, Inc.! Yes, it's your fault for not having some sort of elaborate locking mechanism. . . or security-encrypted packaging. . . or, better yet. . . . voice-activated adhesive . . . attached to your boobs. That way they could actually stick around and be available to the rightful boob-owner when she needed them.
Could you work on that for me?
Tell you what. . . I won't even charge you for the intellectual properties associated with the voice-activated idea if you would just market the product. Having the correct boobs at my daughters' disposal when they need them would be payment enough.
Signed, one of your best customers (albeit, reluctantly)
Oh. . . and I still think you would make a killing in the sticky thong (ouch!) department. . . .

and when you get a pair of good ones, send them over here for Bitchy. She was unfortunately SKIPPED when they passed out the boobs. They all landed on Sassy.
Funny funny post! Thanks for the morning chuckle! Raising only boys I did not have any boob problems other than my own, but it did always amuse me that the exact same super hero would be on my son's toddler t-shirts as on his 20 yr old t shirts! Weird!
Sticky boobs? Are they like sticky notes? 'Cause my work cubicle could use some enhancement, and sticky boobs would be awesome!
What?
I can think of so many things that I would like to add some sticky to and adhere to my kids...
Sticky boobs? How do I not know about these? Does this mean my 2 daughters' 4 boobs are not sticking to the things they should??? Obviously I need to be a better mom.
I am REALLY glad they didn't have sticky boobs when I was buying clothing etc. for my daughters! But when I was growing up...........
We are always looking for the sticky boobs at my house too! It is funny how they always are never where they belong and are always hiding somewhere.
Just a note: Target has them too and they aren't as expensive. I am not sure if they are as good as the "real ones", but seeing that my daughters don't keep up with them for that long, who cares?!
Do them make them with Gorilla Glue for us 'mature' women? Not that I would even be wearing anything that would require less than the cross-your-heart-18-hour variety.
Your posts are always enlightening!
So funny. Especially the thought of voice activated sticky boobs.
Oh, you're a talent on such thing,
we should learn from you.
Applause!
God, I'm so glad that my daughters and I always wore different size bras. I'd hate to have to share, sticky or not.
Having raised my two daughters, your blog brings back so many memories. We could seriously sit down over tea or coffee and laugh our heads off and then cry together. Those were the days...and I did it alone without a husband! Wouldn't trade a minute of it. I really enjoyed your blog and will add it to my list...(this is starting to get really scary how many FANTASTIC blogs there are out there in cyberspace and making time to read them all!! No wonder I am baggy eyed and tired all the time!!!
Well said!
But you have to admit, Sticky Boobs are the BEST invention ever!
Hi, I found you from Ethelmae and Happy hour. Very funny post-thank you for the chuckle. I'll definitely be checking in more regularly!
Liz, please come to my blog for a sweet surprise...
I can still see my husband's face the first time he discovered one of the missing sticky boobs lying around and I explained what it was!
By the way, love your blog! I have a 17 and a 20 year old daughter so I can definitely relate!
! Thanks for the morning chuckle!
