SP is back with her spring time hawk! (The 1st tenant in the single girl covenant)

I know, I know I've been missing for awhile from my latest tangents of being 30 and flirty but it's been for good reasons. As you all know, old man winter hit the A pretty hard these past few months, so I did what any single girl would do... found a winter-beau to boo. :P

Needless to say, the girlfriend outings and conversations took to the background for a spell (some of them found their winter-beaus too) and so "30, Flirty, Thursdays" took a step back these past few weeks... My girls all understood and excercised what all of us single girls have oathed to each other and to ourselves... That is nothing (including my beloved 30 Flirty) comes before the 2nd tenant of the single girl covenant:

"Whereas we are of single status in the 30+ box, of low tolerance for foolery, but have learned that the good ones aren't as plentiful for the choosin'; Wherefore if you got a good one to be with, go forth... us said girlfriends will be here if he stays or goes, but more importantly, we shall be waiting for the details". :)

Now of course this tenant has more language to it that asserts that you can have a beau AND still be you, have girlfriends, and have your own individual interests, blah blah blah. So don't be mistaken to think that we condone dropping your entire life, as there is another tenant that states, "Whereas you have lost your d**n mind and as a result can no longer recongize foolery, us said girlfriends will snatch your a$$ up and address this directly"... I'm sure this isn't the exact language in the single girl covenant but this is how I can best remember it to keep myself straight. LOL.

So with THAT being said, SP is back to writing her 30 Flirty thoughts. And what I've been thinking is that while mother nature is taking her time presenting her springtime beauty and the ends of our lenten sacrifices are near, her tardiness has actually been a small gift in disguise for us single ladies... Why? Because it has given us additional time to get the 1st and ultimate tenant in order:

"Whereas we are of single status of 30+ and time is a tickin'; and whereas we live in the A, the plentiful land of single women; Wherefore, always be of preparation, perfection, and positioning of your hawk".

That's right, it's time for SP and her girl crew to get their 2009 spring time hawk together. And for those who may not know about the "hawk", it simply is a woman's ability to exude confidence and sophistication with personal style in this here dating game... or to be succint and be of the latest urban language trend, it's the female's swagger. So why is it called the hawk? Long story. Another time. LOL

So what is it that we need to prepare, perfect, and position? Well, there are several and too many things to name here as each probably warrants its own blog (Did I just create a 30 flirty spring blog series?). But as I told one of my "Charlotte-type" girlfriends, if you want a "him" when it's time to go "there", the coy-shy "I'm waiting for him to call me" is not what's in this season. On the other hand, neither is the "No! I don't wanna dance with you" bourgie, pissy stance that sometimes is the result of an overzealous, overexerted hawk. :P

So I've been talking to some of my girls and (and need to consult my Boy BFFs soon... you two been taken cover from old man winter too, I see) about the single girls' 1st tenant and revamping the hawk for the 2009 spring season. I've been throwing some theories around and I think it's time to test them out. So stay posted... I'll share my findings and my girls' spring adventures soon as they will be so gracious in trying out some of my theories... So y'all ready?! :) -- SP
