About Me

I'm tough on the outside, but that's just the image I put up to deal with the pain of not having a father. My mom's always brining home new boyfriends, and I never like them.Sometimes I hatch schemes. One time I got everybody thinking there was a spooky old janitor who lived in the woods and I nearly won a big bet but then I got real scared of spiders. I love Whitesnake and all things metal.
