There is an illusion about America, a myth about America to which we are clinging which has nothing to do with the lives we lead and I don’t believe that anybody in this country who has really thought about it or really almost anybody who has been brought up against it — and almost all of us have one way or another — this collision between one’s image of oneself and what one actually is is always very painful and there are two things you can do about it, you can meet the collision head-on and try and become what you really are or you can retreat and try to remain what you thought you were, which is a fantasy, in which you will certainly perish. -James Baldwin

“She was perfect, pure maddening sex, and she knew it, and she played on it, dripped it, and allowed you to suffer for it.” ― Charles Bukowski, Factotum
If you want it, we can get right to it Mix some vodka with some OJ Skip the mornin’ and let’s get right to it Put your hands on my body Me and my friends poppin’ No we don’t need no man to be gettin’ on down Know how I like it Like it Don’t need no excuse to be going this ham We’re bumping KC and the Sunshine Band That’s the way I like it Like it Sippin’ so much Goose that you could call it geese Sippin’ so much Goose that you could call it geese Feel like I can fly when you are next to me Feel like I can fly when you are next to me
Years ago, many many years ago, back in my very young, wild and single days, I used to love going to the laundromat with my roommate. We’d make a day of it and we always had so much fun. We were a wild pair. We’d drag all our laundry down the local laundromat, grab a couple of Diet Pepsis and get to work. The best part was waiting on the clothes to dry. We’d sit on the counter and chat. Sometimes we’d even have a bit of a picnic. There was a sandwich shop right around the corner, so if it was one those big laundry days, we’d grab some lunch for our countertop picnic.
It’s funny how you can have such fond memories of something that just felt like a necessity at the time. It certainly feels like a lifetime ago. Well, it might be someone’s lifetime ago, considering I was around 21 at the time. *laughs* Now, I can’t even remember the last time I went to a laundromat. My anxiety keeps me in the house as much as possible and lucky for me, I have a washer & dryer in my kitchen!
Matching shoes to outfits is often one of the curses we face in the fashion world. However, when it comes to matching an outfit from {le fil casse}, I know hands down that Breathe will be my goto for shoes. Their color palettes are very similar and if all else fails, you can find that perfect neutral color at Breathe. I still remember the first pair of shoes I bought from Breathe back in the day. They were a neutral tone with a big buckle at the ankle and I wore those shoes a lot! I’m all about some neutral tones from head to toe. Both of these brands are amazing for that.
It’s hard to show in a still photograph, but I did my best to show the glitter on the dress. However, what you don’t see is that this glitter sparkles! Not like bling. Don’t be silly. Jacinda has infused some sort of moving glitter magic on this dress and it is wonderful. I mean, who doesn’t love shiny, sparkly dresses?!?!?
One more quick little shoutout. Valentine’s Day is around the corner, but not all of us have a romantic interest, much less a Valentine. No matter what side of the V-day coin you relate to, there’s a coffee cup for you at Burrow Co. You can see my favorite in the photo, but if you click the link you’ll see all three. Naturally, I had to put Rezz Room’s chihuahua in the photo, cuz if you’ve been to Burrow Co., you’ve probably met Gus the resident coffee house mascot. There’s so much to see there, so drop by, grab a cup of coffee, and explore the sim. ♥

Lovers with no single care at all Busy catching shadows off the wall Higher than the grass with ten feet When I’m with you, when I’m with you Laughing in the clouds, a perfect view Purple in your eyes like sweet taboo Linger in the air like ooh ooh When I’m with you, when I’m with you Let’s waste away together Let’s waste away forever Let’s waste away together Just you and me

Unlucky for you I’m queen of the bored And I’m like Cleopatra I get what I want I lean in but then I check right out I don’t flinch because it doesn’t hurt And what is god if it’s no one there And there’s no proof that you ever cared about me About me I fuck with the fates Because it’s so much fun And I don’t feel a thing Cause I got so numb I lean in but then I check right out I don’t flinch because it doesn’t hurt And what is god if no one’s there And what is god if there’s no proof There ain’t no proof You got no proof I lean in but then I check right out I don’t flinch because it doesn’t hurt And there’s no proof that you ever cared about me
Everything you do just wears me down It’s getting old, I’m turned around Feels like you’re just wasting me away When you choose to terrorize me And your confidence inside me dies You suffocate me with the things you say I’m better by myself I’m better when there’s no you in my life You’re no good for my health You’re no good for my troubled state of mind

This whole thing started so that fathers could sell daughters like property But I never had a father, and I couldn’t be his daughter, so lucky me The only thing I’m sellin’ are songs But nobody buys those no more Marriage is a contract ’cause they know that it’s another liability You cut through my legs, through my heart just to get another piece of me (piece of me) The only thing I’m servin’ are facts But nobody wants those no moreHey See, the thing about forever Is that it’s a fucking lie But I’ll love you for tonight Say with time that it gets better And that’s such a fucking lie But I’ll love you for tonight, oh

So here’s to you and here’s to when the day gets long Go ahead, I understand if you wanna take a load off I don’t drink But sometimes I need a stiff drink Sipping from a highball glass Let the world fade away Yeah, and I don’t smoke But sometimes I need a long drag Yeah, I know it might sound bad But sometimes I need a, sometimes I need a When the day gets long When the work’s all done When the sun sets When you need to forget Grab that cup, mmm Fill it up Sip it slow And let it all go Ooh
