Come with me, my darling!

I shall take you to places you’ve never been!

You will be

SO

VERY

ANXIOUS

 

Something tells me

He may not be ready

For casual dating

Tamara

His orientation is listed as

“The River What Took My Son”

 

Every joyful person is a

to

me!

 

Interests:

Obfuscation

Paradigm shifting

Ponderous arguments

Travel! :D :D :D

 

New Message!

Ah!

Sent at 1AM

Ah?

From “JohnGalt196”

Ah.

“Have you ever worn heels and stomped on –”

AHHHHH

 

I’m looking for a “Robin Hood” type

My Dear Angelo!

Unpleasant adjectives

Such as

Terribly fun

Wickedly smart

And

Lovecraftianly horny

 

Happy Christmas Party,

My dear office staff!

In case my open-backed set of onesie pajamas was not a proper indication

I am indeed

Single

And Ready
