First sentence challenge

I wrote the following for the terribleminds Flash Fiction challenge for this week, which was to write just the opening line to a story - and to make it compelling enough to get the reader wanting the rest of it.
"Several hours late, like a self-fulfilling prophecy made flesh, she strode into the living room, all five foot nine and a buck twenty five in skin-tight jeans with assets full on display, shedding designer accessories as she went, a litany of complaints following in her wake and the sweet sound of glass meeting bottle punctuating her sentences like little bells."
