Well ladies and gentlemen, I think it’s safe to say that I have 100% officially lost my marbles.  Granted, there have been a few tell tale signs in my life before, but this one really takes the cake.

Apparently my bringing Mom Sexy back to the blogosphere just wasn’t good enough for me.  NOPE!

Because I think that I need to have my own Talk Show centered around Mom Sexy on the new Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN). And that’s why I made an audition video and uploaded it and poured my heart and soul into the online application that took me over two hours to fill out.

A little over a week ago, my good friend Michele over at The Professional Family Manager sent me a message and told me that she thought I should audition for Oprah’s contest and spin a show off my whole Mom Sexy Revolution.  And as much as I appreciated her confidence in me and my idea, I really didn’t think that I had the balls to actually make the video and submit it.

But as I thought about the concept more and more, my attitude slowly started to change.  Instead of thinking, “there’s no way that I could do something like that”, I started thinking:

“You know what?  Women across America NEED MOM SEXY.  They need to get their groove back.  They need to reclaim their inner sexy.  And if I don’t at least TRY to give them what they are all craving, then I’ll always wonder if I could’ve made a difference in their lives.”

And so I sucked it up and did it.

And now I need your help if the producers are going to notice me!

You can view my audition video and hear all about my proposed idea for a Mom Sexy show here.

I will warn you in advance that my video is not perfect.  But neither am I.  I am, however, Mom Sexy as HELL, and being sexy is not about being perfect.

It also cuts me off at the very end, so you can’t hear me asking everyone to VOTE FOR ME!

But I really would LOVE to have the support of your vote. But please don’t vote for me because you think you have to.  Vote for me because you believe as strongly as I do that moms everywhere DESERVE this show.  They DESERVE this confidence boost. And they DESERVE their sexy.

You can vote as often as you like!  (hint, hint, wink, wink)

You can also help me by tweeting the following:  Please vote for @themommyologist to have her own Mom Sexy Talk Show on Oprah’s New Network! http://bit.ly/bHL5vX Please RT

Thank you in advance from the bottom of my heart!  And if by some one-in-a-billion shot I actually manage to win this thing, you are ALL going to be invited to one hell of a good party.  And yes, the drinks will be on me.

And thank you again, Michele, for believing in me and reminding ME of my inner Mom Sexy.  And I’d also like to give a shout out and a thank you to my bloggy sis, Shell, for encouraging me to make Mom Sexy a regular feature on my blog after I wrote my initial post about it.  I will never forget the kindness and support of these two wonderful ladies!

Sooo…are you coming to my prom?  I heard through the grapevine that people are having a bit of a tough time finding the details on my blog (sorry about that!), so I’m reposting the scoop on my Mom Sexy Prom 2010!

After being inspired by my Mom Sexy Blogger of the Month for June, I started thinking about how all of us have these awesome dresses that sit in our closets and maybe come out once a year if we are lucky.  And I really think that it is a total tragedy, that as sexy mamas, we don’t get to show them off a little more often. So I want to give all of us an occasion to get all gussied up and strut our stuff a bit.

I’m pleased to officially invite all of you to:

THE MOMMYOLOGIST’S MOM SEXY PROM – MONDAY, JUNE 21st, 2010

That’s right ladies.  I’m turning Mom Sexy into Prom Sexy at the end of this month.  Please join me on Monday, June 21st, and link up your post with a picture of you in “Your Hot Dress” or “Your Hot Outfit”, whatever it may be. This is your excuse to finally put on that little number that you never wear because you just don’t have a reason to. You have an occasion now!  And you know what?  You’re not even required to bring a date to this prom.  I plan on going stag.

The McLinky will be up from Monday, the 21st, until Friday, the 25th, and then me and my yet-to-be-selected team of expert panelists will nominate five ladies who linked up their photo to be our Mom Sexy Prom Queen. On Monday, the 28th, the five nominees for prom queen will be revealed and all of you will have the chance to vote daily for the winner.  And she will be crowned on July 1st as my Mom Sexy Prom Queen Blogger for July. (And yes, I will be sending the winner her very own tiara. Every queen deserves one).

I am SO pumped about this and I really think that this is going to be the BEST PROM EVER! (And I’m pretty sure that I won’t leave in the limo alone after this one).

I really think that this is going to be SO MUCH FUN!!  I really hope to see all of you on the 21st!!!

(I hit publish too early on this one and can’t figure out how to fix it, so I’m just gonna go with it even though today is Thursday)!

Where has the week gone?  This one flew by for me, and I can’t believe it’s already Friday!

While I was flipping back through some of my recent Friday posts, I noticed that I’ve sort of had a common theme.  I’m really rockin’ and rollin’ with my Mom Sexy Revolution these days, and I’ve been trying to write Friday posts that leave all of you feeling good about yourselves as we head into the weekends.  Because for whatever reason, the weekends seem to the be the time when all the “stuff” comes up.

And by “stuff”, I mean all of those little things in our lives that make us doubt our worth and our sexy.  Sometimes it’s the pizza that you ate way too much of on Friday night and that you still feel guilty for eating come Sunday morning.  Or maybe it’s the fact that you’re having friends over for a cookout and instead of laughing and having a good time, you sit there and constantly worry about whether your thighs look fat in the shorts you chose to put on.  Or hell, maybe the “stuff” that really brings you down in the dumps is when you look at the clock on Saturday night and realize it’s only 9:00pm and that you can’t possibly keep your eyes open for one more second because your kids completely kicked your ass that day.  And then you start to feel old.  And then feeling old makes you feel a whole lot less sexy.

In an effort to ditch the “stuff” and give all of you a “sexy boost” as we head into the weekend, I am keeping with my inspirational trend and offering a little sexy food for thought this Friday.  And I’m going to try and keep up with doing something similar every Friday this summer if I can. Because we could all use a reminder at the end of each week that we are indeed sexy mamas.

I was reading the June 2010 issue of Self Magazine on my plane ride home from TN last Sunday, and the cover article with actress, Amanda Seyfried had me wanting to unbuckle my seat belt despite the little light that was glowing above my head and jump up and down in the aisles and maybe even dance a little bit!

Amanda was asked the following question:

“Do you have any tips on accepting imperfections rather than beating yourself up over every little flaw?”

And here is her kick-ass answer:

“Remember, nobody’s perfect.  In Hollywood, people may seem perfect, but that’s because they spend thousands on trainers and diets and surgeries.  We’re made to feel as if we’re supposed to look like that, but it’s not realistic at all. If you have a negative body image, exercise, but not for your appearance.  The main thing you can change is how you perceive yourself.  Stop looking in the mirror and realize that you’re living for yourself, not other people.  If we’re so busy trying to change ourselves, especially aesthetically, we’re going to miss out on other, bigger things…”

Seriously people…how Mom Sexy is Amanda?  I know she’s not a mom, but she’s Mom Sexy as hell!  I honestly couldn’t have given a better answer than she did.  She hit the nail right on the head as far as my whole Mom Sexy philosophy goes.

Strive for sexy because it feels good for YOU.

Remember that being sexy is not about the way you look.  It’s an ATTITUDE.

And people pick up on your attitude a lot more than you think.

I want you to try a little something this weekend.  As you go about your day, walk around with your head held high, and repeat the words, “I Am Sexy!” in your head as you interact with other people.  I promise you that your sexy will shine through.  And you won’t be the only one who notices it. Giving off positive vibes comes back full circle.

Trust me, it works.

Have a safe, wonderful, and sexy weekend!

And don’t forget to mark your calendars for my Mom Sexy Prom 2010, happening on Monday, June 21st!!
