I've been a retailer for somewhere in the vicinity of twenty years...started out as that cute girl behind the candy counter at Jordan Marsh. (May we have a moment of silence, please?) Fast forward to late summer 2005 and I've traveled professional hills and valleys to arrive at yet another counter, this one purely cosmetic in nature. I do believe I've found my bliss somewhere between causer of problems and finder of solutions. I do not regret any part of the journey that brought me to this point, for it is the journey itself that made me the woman I am. With that knowledge, ask yourself this question: If I really could go back and change things, would I? Update 2009: Finding myself on a path of creativity and self discovery and struggling to use my many years of retail experience for my own designs at http://biggirljewelry.etsy.com
Oh yeah, and if you're male....Yes, I was flirting with you. As the Scorpion said to the Turtle "It's just my nature."
Sinatra. . .
Raw drizzle. . .
Aroma of low tide. . .
Trying to cozy down
In new pajamas. . .
Thinking about you,
Adrian.
Listening to the rhythm
Of drops from the roof.
Reminds me of
Jack Kerouac
Of. . .
Your bedroom eyes,
Your strong jaw.
Jewel loves you;
She's bewitched.
But who are you?
How can I
Get under your skin,
Get into your soul?
Do you have one?
Come to me. . .
But my mind is elsewhere.
I myself
Am entranced.
He's taken my focus
Away from you.
I pray for a distraction.
I pray for a sign.
I pray for a glimmer of light.

Another oddity is that you should ask whether I have a relative in Tulsa. Six months ago, I pulled up stakes in Boston and moved to Oklahoma City. (view)
Wed 26 Jun, 2013 09:00 pm - Nope, no relation. All my Laliberte relatives are still in New England or Florida. For a while, some were in New York and Arizona, but I've lost track of the extended family. (view)
