In my dreams, I’m in Rome. Or Budapest. Or Tasmania. Or maybe even Cairo, I guess. You know, just passing through and stuff. And after a long day’s work of helping the poor and kickin’ it with the locals, I step quietly and sleepily into my luxurious penthouse suite, only to find this woman sitting on my bed. After only a moment’s gaze, she raises a hand and gestures,

peace

And I swear this dream has lasted ALL NIGHT LONG with all this non-Susan crap happening that’s forgettable in comparison with this moment, and here I am with only a twinkling with Susan, and the god damned Sandman just laughs and makes me wake up. Eff you, Mr. Sandman.

Upon waking, I remember her. I remember the feeling of finding her there. And I remember her message. Peace.

Great. Now that I’ve associated world peace with Susan, it feels more desirable and unattainable than ever.

Let’s hope a huge piece of her message make its way to Egypt.

did you catch me ‘play a spell’ on you?
draw you in with my eyes, my smile, my lingerie?

Between the Sheets (BTS) Lingerie recently posted several new photos of Susan taken last summer for their new Spring/Summer 2011 line of products. Insuh Yoon was the photographer and you can see them all by clicking this link.

They also posted a bunch of behind-the-scenes shots for the shoot at Coney Island. The photos were taken by co-owner Josh Verleun and you can see them all in our gallery by clicking this link.

But you’re probably better off visiting these following links, because in addition to the photos, Layla L’obatti, the BTS co-owner and designer, posted lots of fun facts and commentary about the shoot on the BTS blog.

An important piece of information:

Layla L’obatti and her fiancée Josh Verleun of Between the Sheets Lingerie will be appearing on a new reality tv show called All on the Line. Because of all the recent work they’ve done with Susan, there’s a decent chance that Susan herself might get some airtime, even if it’s only the photographs of her. This is way exciting and can only mean good things for BTS and Susan. I’ll post more information as it becomes available. The show is set to air March 29 on the Sundance Channel, though the BTS segment may come later. For now, you can get more info by clicking this link.

If I ever exhibited any ADHD tendencies, yesterday Susan helped cure me of half of them. I was able to fixate on that photo for hours on end. Unfortunately, my resulting hyperactivity increased tenfold.

A few things today…

I’ve added a few more photos of Susan’s shoot for Between the Sheets Lingerie, but I’ve also moved the album to Insuh Yoon’s territory, because he was the photographer. A big thanks to the lovely Layla L’obatti for posting these, and here’s to hoping for more collaboration with Susan soon.

One of the questions from the interview with Susan that I didn’t post was if she has any birthday plans, because she’s turning 21 on February 13th. Part of her answer was asking if we have any suggestions. Thus, the new poll is born. So we’ll see what the clear winner is and I’m *SURE* Susan will take our advice to heart and plan her very special day accordingly.

Old poll:



Decent turnout this time because the interview brought literally thousands of new people to the site, which resulted in… roughly 200 more votes. *sigh* I would start a Rock the Vote campaign, except it doesn’t really matter that much.

To those of you who voted “No,” I’m with you. But, since the majority said “Yes,” I’m taking it under consideration. Maybe not a chat channel, per se, but something similar to help members connect. It might take a while, because the tool I’ll be using is pretty elaborate and basically brand new to WordPress, so I need to test it out.
