Sachets are small fragrant bags of herbs used to perfume your lingerie and handkerchief drawers, should you be old enough to remember cloth handkerchiefs.
Sashay is a dance step etymologically mangled from to hunt, chase, catch.
Chassé is a gliding dance step...
But what about chassis?
That seems to be a box of eye sockets, jewel settings, snail shells, or the base frame an automobile.
And cachet? Something can lend a certain cachet, a bit of prestige, as sachets lend a certain fragrance..
I will not be gallivanting or sallying forth. Quite likely a snooze will come on just sitting here at the computer. Traveling in the Amazon and wrestling anacondas on the automobile audiobook takes a lot out of a girl.
Do you know the way to San Jose?
I've been away so long
I may go wrong and lose my way
Do you know the way to San Jose?
I'm going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose

L.A. is a great big freeway
Put a hundred down and buy a car
In a week, maybe two, they'll make you a star

I do know the way to San Jose, as I have been there about four times in the last couple of weeks. Unfortunately, whatever its appeal at the time of the song, it is now pretty much a great big freeway too.
I do know the way to San José: drive through Atenas Centro, take the Radial from El Pollo to the autopista, go about 35 Km East on the Autopista del Sol & you're in San José. Don't forget to take coins for the tolls :-)
