Yep n Sho Enuf, I dig a pony.

About Me

ask others. equally distorted prism, but worth a laugh.No generalities mean much, still, I am a Gemini, for better or worse. Piss poor concentration. Yes, clarity rules, yet the fun truly begins with an affinity for beautiful confusion. Fog. Nature's way of hiding itself. So you have to pay attention, even if you want to just day dream. Or you'll crash. Broken fingers, shredded memory. Things that do you no good.What I am GOOD at is internal vanity and simultaneously thinking of myself. I know that, and i know this: so are you. so you and I start off sorta like twins. not for nothing, where we end up, that is the measure that counts.
