The Little Black Book
Skii was at a rock and a hard place. As she thought back to a few months ago her and Caren trip to Mexico was much needed but now she’s facing a hard reality. Bills were piled up high on the dining room table. The influx of messages on the answering machine from debt collectors threatening car repossession, house foreclosure. Having only a remaining of 5 payments. “This can’t be real” said skii as she skipped through the voice messages. Quickly this placed her drastically at her wit’s end.

Little Black Book
Little Black Book Behold, the beginning of a new and beautiful world, emerging from the ashes of the old, figuratively speaking of course. No one can really remember the old, and to be honest I don’t think anyone wants to.
