I have thunder thighs.

this is our house motto. we have this nike ad on our fridge. we refer to it regularly...

I have thunder thighs.
And that's a compliment
because they are strong
and toned
and muscular
and though they are unwelcome
in the petite section
they are cheered on in marathons.
fifty years from now
i'll bounce a grandchild on my thunder thighs
and then i'll go out for a run.
just do it.

I've had that ad on my cubicle wall for a while now. Fat women always ask me to take it down. Whatever.
