"House of the Lo'd one more day that God made?" At some point you did a little more than just drive by, I see. But you've inspired me. I'm thinking I could use Easter as a rare chance to indulge my Breakfast at Tiffany's fashion fetishes. I couldn't risk falling asleep and crushing a new hat! And gloves too. Ooh, I'm palpitating. I'll take a picture if I manage to put something cute together.

You now, at one point I thought othering was the greatest sin of mankind. Now, it's like, what the hell can you do? If something is freaky to you, it just is. And there's nothing wrong with the childish urge to giggle when you see something weird. When we went to mardi gras, i found out about the phenomenon of crewes. These hard core thugged out young men have elaborate costumes, costing thousands of dollars, made up. Vegas has nothing on these boys. Feathers, headdresses, gold, and bare chests. It's like the mermaid festival down there! Thing is, they represent their projects and neighborhoods, and there was a lot of gang activity surrounding these parades. But me, I was just down to see all this hyper-masculinity shrouded in gala finery. And it was beautiful.

I knew not of this activity. I guess they're, uh, secure in their masculinity, huh.
