Reader's Anthems
Strut- Sheena Easton
This week's Anthem is inspired by *Megan, who had an "ah-huh" moment like me recently. Megan wrote to tell me, she realized that the man she thought was serious about her really was not. She was basically a booty call to him. Her "ah-huh" moment came when she really wanted to go to a fundraiser dinner with this man, and he would not go. In her disappointment, a lightning bolt sudden struck her. This man always did something like this. When she wanted to actually do something, he never could go. He only seems to be available when he wanted some, "nooky."
Finally, she decided he was not worth the disappointment, and she decided to show him the door, she has never felt better. The song, "Strut" was being sung at a karaoke bar, and the lyric "Come on baby, what you takin' me for? / Strut, pout, cut it out, all takin' and no givin' / Watch me baby while I walk out the door" was her new anthem, when comes to not being the booty call doormat.
