Dootsie, Marquess of Pembroke

I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm Dootsie.
I've been trying forever to come up with a really good profile paragraph that, in some way, summarizes who I am, what I love, and why I'm here. But every time I go to write one, I realize that I don't have the answers to any of those questions. So some sort of clever byline will have to do.
