“I make mistakes.
That's what I do.
I speak without thinking.
I act without knowing.
I drink so much that I can barely walk.
I'm a fantastic lover though, and an amazing friend.
God knows I mean well.”

Anybody else craving to be felt up in such a manner… mmmm.. hubba hubba
Confession: I believe I should be hailed the new Achat Poker Queen!
I actually won twice in the span of half an hour. :
Another Confession: I totally winged all of it, lucking out twice, and pretty much know nothing when it comes to poker.
UPDATE: Looks like there is no stopping me :
Hmm.. well I'm glad to hear you find me so entertaining & amusing Ms. FoxyRoxxy…
Stay tuned sweetie.. after last night, maybe what I do next could be you… *Smirks cheekily*
Confession: I was feeling kinda curious tonight…
Very curious… hehe :
Thank you everyone for the warm & kind wishes, today & for the past two years :-* It's been a ride! xxI make my way into the bar on a crisp, Saturday evening after a seemingly long spell. I hadn't been here since the holidays and the regular energy I felt while walking in was absent.
Wearing a long dress held together by straps to my side and a pair of laced heels, I click-clack my way to the bar to see Old Joe undressing me with his eyes as per usual and flashing me a sly smirk.
“Well, well… aren't you a sight for a sore eyes,” he says while grinning, leading me to do a playful courtesy before leaning over the counter.
“The regular please, oh kind Sir,” I murmur, in a mocking, sultry tone.
“Aren't you going to sit?” he questions me while pouring me my drink.
“I would, but I've got a performance to do tonight,” I reply, as he hands the glass over to me.
“Ahh.. you usually wear much less for those performances of yours,” he chuckles, grinning devilishly at me.
“Oh, I won't be dancing tonight..” I say before chugging down the drink in one gulp. I slam the glass down on the counter and say “Stay tuned..” with a smirk and a wink, before strutting my way to the vacant stage. A single spotlight, a stool and an old-fashioned microphone had been set up at my request.
Two bouncers help me hop onto stage and I grab the mic before I take a seat on the stool. Crossing one leg over the other in order to flash a good amount of skin, I purr into the mic.
“Is this thing on?” I say with a chuckle, grabbing a hold of the calm and collected crowd's attention, as opposed to the usual rowdy crowd I'm used to.
“Hey guys… Many of you probably know me as Amy, and for those of you who don't know me, well I'm Amy,” I say with a giggle. “Uhm.. usually, putting on an arousing and theatrical display of a hot dance is more of my forte but.. uhm.. to commemorate the two year anniversary of the night I first made my way through those doors,” I say while pointing towards the bar entrance… “I thought I would do something different. It's certainly been one hell of a ride since that night to say the least,” I say with a chuckle .. “And uhm.. this song I'm going to sing is definitely a classic and I'd like to dedicate it to that girl, who was a little lost and partially in search of something or someone and found herself in this wonderful place two years ago to this day. If you know the words, sing along,” I conclude with a smile, as the soft guitar strings of the instrumental kick in from the booming speakers to each side of the stage.
Eva Cassidy – Time After Time
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWvPOJOYqGALying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
And think of you
Caught up in circles
Confusion is nothing new
Flashback, warm nights
Almost left behind
Suitcases of memories,
Time afterI look towards my stool, the one I sat on the first night and the many nights after that, while singing through the first verse. My voice isn't pitch perfect but a high string of emotion and soul is evident as I sing in a subtle, soft tone while remembering my She-Wolf costume, meeting new people, and flirting with the funny guy in the big-balled monkey costume.
Sometimes you picture me
I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, I can't hear
What you've said
Then you say, go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwindsFighting feelings of jealousy, the beautiful escape to Crystal Lake, that sense of belonging and love, having someone here clearly displaying their affection for me for the first time… all these thoughts run through my mind, leading me to reflect and become even more emotional as I sing the chorus to that lost, young girl who came here two years ago in hopes of just that.Â
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you, I will be waiting
Time after timeIf you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you, I will be waiting
Time after timeThe slowed-down rendition of the 80s classic certainly tugs at strings of the heart as I further reflect on events that spanned through the course of time I've spent in this village.
After my picture fades and darkness has
Turned to gray
Watching through windows
You're wondering if I'm okay
Secrets stolen from deep inside
The drum beats out of timeThe spousal ceremony, that state of pure bliss, fighting feelings of loneliness, trying to fight temptations at every corner, the seedy motel room, strong feelings of immense guilt, faint recollections of verbal abuse, leaving and then returning in hopes of a fresh new start, illusions of resentment, miscommunications, a second chance with one considered to be a soulmate, those hot & long & passion-filled nights, suddenly starting to miss that feeling of being openly and proudly affectionate leading to that same, on-going feeling of loneliness…Â I see all of the events happening before my eyes as I sing my heart out.
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you, I will be waiting
Time after timeI take a deep breath as the bridge of the song kicks in and I return to my soft, hushed vocals.
You said go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwindsSomething triggers in my mind that makes me come to some sort of realization and I begin to think and focus on all the positives of the past two years. The instrumental stops for one set of a the chorus and emotions are at an all high in the room, with all eyes on me as my voice echoes throughout the place.
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you, I'll be waiting
Time after timeI think of the all the friendly faces I've come across and have lead to befriend, the fun games, the storylines, the secret date events, the creativity, pushing to have to new costumes and outfits in shop, getting so excited when there was a new outfit out that I really liked, trying a new pose for the first time with someone, those special, intimate moments with the ones you've made a deep connection with, my well-received dances, the parties… the list goes on and on in my mind as my sadness fades, a big grin appears on my face and the instrumental kicks back in for the final chorus.
If you're lost you can look and you will find me

Time after timeTo my delight everyone in the room is singing along in pure joy. Their phones are out with the flash on, as they wave them in unison and we all sing the song to conclusion in unison.
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
Time after…
Tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime!
The crowd erupts in cheers as the song ends leading me to giggle and laugh in pure contentment. I murmur a soft thank you to the crowd before the spotlight fades and I disappear into the darkness of the night.
