Six more sentences this week from I.O.U. SEX. Setup: The three friends decide to hunt down their high school boyfriends. One of them (Peggy) gives up on internet research and decides to hire a professional to help in her search.
One week later Peggy sat in the office of James Hornby, P.I. Decked out in her best Ferragamo shoes and plus-size designer suit, she hoped she appeared to be a woman of means. This whole adventure was so far outside her normal experience and comfort level that she needed all the help she could get. Wearing nice clothes usually made her feel more confident. At the moment, though, her feet hurt and she couldn't help but wonder if she didn't resemble the Pillsbury Dough Boy trussed up in silk. She just hoped she didn't fall off her high-heeled shoes and ruin the effect she'd worked so hard to create.
