I am here for Friends

About Me

I like sunsets and butterfly kisses and reading the Spanish version of the Teen Study Bible while enduring the harshness of a Siberian winter. After that, we can retire to my place for some "CPR: Back to the Future style" followed by a gentle yet stern "please get the fuck out of my house" in the morning.

My Interests

Music, Comic Books, The Peanuts Gang, Movies, NAACP, Golf, Scotch, Fried Balogna Sandwiches, etc.
adopt your own virtual pet!
