I was totally blank on this one the whole week - but since it's already Thursday close to midnite, I thought I'd better make an attempt...
Blaire McNair believes she's classy
But lots of folks just think she's trashy
She's bleached her hair and teased it high
And wears her skirts above mid-thigh
She dons high heels to do the yard
And frankly she just tries too hard
With fake eyelashes and blue eyeliner
She thinks that she could not look finer
She loves hoop earrings and plastic bangles
And when she moves, well, it all jangles
Her cheeks are painted bright pink rose
Her lips are glossed and she loves to pose
She chews her gum like it was cud
And paints her nails the color of blood
She'll wave at all the men and boys
And they hoot and holler and make a rude noise
But there is something that I've heard:
Blair never gossips or hurts with words
She doesn't judge or put on airs
She's helpful, kind and always fair
She smiles at folks who need it most
She doesn't ever brag or boast
She's honest as the day is long
And says she's sorry when she's wrong
Whether you're broke or have a fancy name
She treats each person just the same
So those who think that Blaire's just trashy
Best think again: she's really classy.

Very fun! I love it :)
Oh my gosh, I LOVE this! At first, I'm laughing, thinking, "Oh yeah! I know that type!" Then when I got to the end I felt so guilty for being judgemental. What a sweet character you created. I just happen to be going to confession today...I'll have to add "judgemental" to my list of sins, lol.
Thanks Angela and WriteWingNut (funny play on words!) I hope more people participate.
hey luv, you should definitely use this! i think it deserves the same treatment as the nuns...but concentrate on the nuns for now, come back to this later!
