Lucius Sejanus

I am here for Friends

About Me

Alright, first things first, I lied. I am not really 99 years old, nor is my name Lucius Aelius Sejanus. There was an actual Lucius Sejanus once but he has been dead a long time so I don't think I will be hearing from any lawyers ordering me to cease and desist from using his name. By all accounts, he wasn't a nice person and he met a rather nasty end. If his ghost comes back and haunts me, well, I guess that is what happens when you tempt the gods.

My Interests

Good food, expensive coffee, wine and long passionate kisses that go on forever, the feel of silk and the smell of leather. 19th Century photographs

I'd like to meet:

Richard Francis Burton and Pablo Picasso but I would have to be dead to do that.
