About Me

I am recognizing that I am becoming a little older everyday. I like fiber cereal. My knees hurt when the weather changes. I like to walk around in socks and flip flops (yes at the same time). I am planning what I am going to do with my pension (yes a pension, cause I dont trust the banks or the stock markets, so I just keep my money under the bed). My IPOD is offically outdated. Kids who work at the mall call me "Ma'am" even though I have on my hipster, vintage shades, which must mean they just look old on me. I enjoy soda water because of the bubbles.

My Interests

Reading, organizing, talking to my favorite people, pretending to know the Dope boyz on my block and sleeping

I'd like to meet:

A sponsor. A point of clarification: a sponsor is one who financially supports the endeavours of a needy artist, student or Tamara. The position of sponsor is solely a finacial committment and does not entail any sexual interacation. This is not limited to monetary compensation. This can include individuals who provide "hook-ups" i.e. a large fry when I ordered a small, a free car wash, even if I didn't fill the tank, an upgrade on a cell phone cause you can or free drinks just because. This should not be confused with a "sugar daddy" or "cat daddy" the above mentioned person(s) should view this as true tax write-off.
