please tell me you remember the song "before you turn off the lights" by world class wrecking crew featuring Michel'e with an apostrophe! and dr. dre wearing a bowtie!
hey gorgeous<3!... sorry we didn't get to chill that night... i hope all is well and i can't wait to see you again.... have fun and when you're not busy call and i'll keep you company....lol
i saw this amazing band last night called "steve mcqueen for a day" they were two girls-bass and drums n vocals,it was amazing! they covered h2B's "Me and her" think you woulda liked it!
Can I please write an article in your zine featuring an article on this fine lady, Barbara Lynn Ozen at some point in the future? And maybe Norma-Jean Wofford (The Dutchess) too!
it was really hot here for like a few days, it hit 97 degrees one day and it was beautiful but it started raining the day before yesterday so i'm confused.
things have been pretty crazy here...i just want y'all to come back already so we can dance and get cute. it's not the same without y'all here.
