Most days I don't recognize me

Flora Azalea Devereaux || 46 She's imperfect, but she tries She is good, but she lies She is hard on herself She is broken and won't ask for help She is messy, but she's kind She is lonely most of the time She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie She is gone, but she used to be mine

That’s how it happened. Together, then not. All, then nothing. I ran and when being in Cali was still too much for me, I came here. Not much more to it than that.

I’m not so sure about that.

From the source, much better than tabloids.

Why not?

Who’s blasting Billy Joel Right now? Because I love the energy, but I need to  focus on my upcoming audition. 

You have an audition, what is it?

[mommafloradevereaux]

Moving to the most magical city in the world has already proven interesting.. I see Disney merchandise in almost every store I go into and little tiny lizards are everywhere. Like, everywhere haha. Still exciting!

To anyone who's been here a while, what are some things for fun you recommend? I know the theme parks are a must, of course.

I'm Haneul, by the way! Just moved here from Korea about a month ago. I live in apartment 6D with my little sister and we are very welcoming of new friends!

Hello Neighbore! Flora Devereaux, 6E! and I don’t do much. I’m sure the others have better suggestions for you. Stop by any time and say hi.

[mommafloradevereaux]

Phew, what a week! I finally get to relax and kick back. Maybe pool time later? 

Your show was wonderful, you have such a good voice. Pool time is always nice.

[mommafloradevereaux]

A mere result of desperation-

anyone know of any places hiring? Or a job that sounds interesting for no reason at all?

It’s not the most glamorous but The Pickle is hiring a mid and closing shift. I work mornings cause I’m up at five anyways, place opens around seven.

[mommafloradevereaux]

Oi, what’re ye all getting up to in here? Just finished unpacking and I ain’t seen a face since I started. 

Oi back, just reading and having some tea. Welcome to the apartment.

[mommafloradevereaux]

Hey NOOBS

@patrickblancoc​ and I are hosting a dinner party for all the newbies in the complex. If you’ve been here a month or less join us! 

We can probably be talked into inviting others but for now, whose in?

@kurtelizabethummel​ I already request your assistance. 

If you need anything let me know, I'll bake a few things.

[mommafloradevereaux]

Yo, I dunno what’s up with the apartment manager or whatevs, but he totally got it out for me or somethin’. First I can’t bring Igor, then my air ain’t turnin’ on! Swear to god, all my stuff better get here in one piece. 

I saw goat and I’m all for it! I would love to have a goat, they are adorable!

[mommafloradevereaux]

Okay, time for a serious question.

Is this building pet friendly? Because I’m thinking about getting one, in fact, I have a very good idea of what I want, but I have to ask this before getting into trouble.

Yes, I’ve had pets come and go here. I like to foster, so I pay that extra fee just in case I get the call.

[mommafloradevereaux]

I should actually see if that’s allowed…

You almost met her?!

I did.

[mommafloradevereaux]

About 8 years back, yeah. That’s where I met them. Raven was someone I never saw coming, took me by surprise and I never once regretted falling in love. It wasn’t always easy, when we were on we burned and we burned bright, but we’d go ice cold after a fight. But it worked for us, even if we were very all or nothing. Which didn’t exactly change in how I broke up with them.

Yeah, needless to say, it’s not exactly comforting knowing she’s in the building.

I won’t pretend to know about it because to be honest, I didn’t really read or see much about it. I just knew you were together and then you weren’t. I figured most of those tabloid magazines are trash, never getting the real scoop- trust me, I know.

I’m sure everything will work out in the end.

[mommafloradevereaux]

I think we figure out things when we’re supposed to, even if looking back we wish we’d have learned it sooner. I rather haphazardly followed in ma’s footsteps, despite knowing the risks. I’ve been mostly clean for about three years now, my pup, Mightyena, Mighty for short, has helped with that. Don’t have to act on it for it to be true.

Well, I’m glad to hear you’re doing better and on the path. Mighty sounds like a good dog, I bet she is very spoiled?

[mommafloradevereaux]

Was just curious, really. Mack’s got a thing going with Shelby and they’ve yet to tell me they’ve fucked mother, but I know it’s on their list, so both at once wouldn’t surprise me any.

I feel like I learned too much... I-

[mommafloradevereaux]

So you are The Golden Girl then! Fantastic. You’re halfway to a belle though, with the New Orleans and Shreveport and church, but I feel like the livestock makes you a hard worker and that is just not a belle trait. Sofia is my favorite Golden Girl, I just love her sass.

I’ll take half way.

Rose always made me laugh and anything with Rose and Blanche. I loved when they dressed up at nuns...

[mommafloradevereaux]

Ha, yeah, I saw it. Madison McCarthy put it there and it was funny until I was the one that could have used it. Remember how Kitty and I were married and then we weren’t? Well, we had a brief reconnection that resulted in a… gift. So that’s baking.

Oh good gracious... a baby on the way? Are you excited?

[mommafloradevereaux]

Apple butter? Sounds delicious. And you have my word, I’ll only call you Flora from now on, promise!

Thanks for being honest with me.

Thank you, I appreciate that. and cause you said you’d call me Flora, I’ll make some homemade apple butter for you. Maybe throw in some biscuits?

[mommafloradevereaux]

My concern has moved onto more serious matters- there was an actual drugging at a dance club not too far away. This is the sort of acts I’m truly worried about!

Well that certainly is unsettling, this world is a scary place.
