About Me

Here the artist broke with convention. No washed-out blond Venus. Rich, dark curly hair fell to her shoulders. Her eyes glowed a dark blue. Everything about her suggested passion, erotic possibilities allied to tender mercy. --Venus Envy, Rita Mae Brownperhaps what i hate most in the world are people convinced of their own inexorable rightness.when we were younger, my sister played with legos and i preferred barbies. now that we're all grown up, she's an architectural engineer - and i like girls. this layout is from whateverlife.com!
