I want a llama! Great article.

That's what happens when you get old. Lots of life experiences! Ha.

if you do come back here to get it :).

Trust me, the forever lazy is a godsend, it's more comfortable, more form fitting (still baggy though), and feels literally like a onesie we wore as a baby :) (with footies!)...I'm going to get a bunch more for different colors... This is a writers coveralls :) haha

It's quite comfortable, too comfortable sometimes- I can get to feeling real lazy wearing it- so it works haha... I wear mine every day, since I work 100% from home I can wear it in leu of clothes when I'm feeling lazy- it's nice to go to work in a forever lazy!

Interesting idea. I'd wear it if I lived in a house, to go get the mail, as you say . . . :-)

What a story! Their mother loved them, but being born into slavery they were sold at an early age by their "owner" (when I read the word, forgetting for a moment the context, with the time frame and the twins being slaves, I just couldn't figure out where and how an "owner" might have come into the story). Then they had grown used to exhibiting themselves as freaks, and did so of their own volition. And the ending. Again, what a story!

BTW I'm wearing my Forever Lazy as I wrote this!

You are right, Brenda. It also wasn't told because of threats made by the abuser to the victim and because there was nobody really willing to believe it. I have had clients who are now between 60 and 70 years old who came to me over the almost 30 years I ran a clinic for sex trauma survivors. They came to heal from the sexual abuse they suffered as children.
Last year I was in a cab to a TV station where I was being interviewed about a recent case on gang rape of a teenager by her schoolmates; the cab driver told me how he is so ashamed that he knew something like this was happening to a classmate (20 years earlier) and he did nothing to help it stop. What they regarded then as her "loose" behaviour, he now realizes was rape.
We are much better now at recognizing sexual abuse, molestation and sexual harassment than we once were. That makes it possible for more victims to come forward today. And still, they face disbelief, ridicule, blame for having brought it on themselves in some way. It's a long uphill battle.

You've tempted me to get the book now. As an American, it would be interested to see how someone from the UK perceives us.

That is amazing. I can't even imagine what their life was like.

Good for you. Let me know when you have your grand opening!

Lol, you are right, I only did a few articles for them in order to gather material for this one, but on the other hand, if you need to earn some cash quickly, when a sudden bill appears for example, knowing places to do so is very, very handy ;-) SY

Thanks for the article. I had been wondering how Reddit worked. I'll have to read this over again.

I'm on Zazzle right now, creating my first product and enjoying it quite a lot! :-))

I bought the guitar for my granddaughter when she was only two years old. She loved it.
