Michael

Hello there. My parents were extras on the set of "Little House on the Prairie" when I was young, and when they came back to England they were very keen to keep the experience alive. Unfortunately I was their only child, so there really wasn't any choice in the matter for me. I got used to my father's Michael Landon rubber mask after a while. Though I still have therapy for the nightmares.Of course, I was bullied at school for being the only cross-dressing pony-riding pistol-packing Kate in the school, but you can find good in anything if you try hard enough. I learnt to take shampoo with me when I went into the toilets (or was carried there), and so rarely had to waste time on washing my hair at home, for example.In my teenage years I rebelled, fuelled by the heady mix of protest programmes that were coming from America- "The Partridge Family" and "Happy Days" opened my eyes to a whole new world of liberal values, personal freedom and designer knitwear. The Fonz wore leather! So I could wear leather! William Partridge Jnr had red hair and freckles, and he played baseball! So red hair and freckles were OK! I grew my hair long (it went over my collar at the back), got rid of the pigtails, saved up to buy a VW I could call Herbie, and stayed out after 9 o'clock. They were wild times. I didn't smoke though.But this heady whirl of rebellion couldn't last, and eventually I started to miss the things I realised I really loved- apple pie, outdoor toilets and the sounds of animals in barns behind closed doors. My parents forgave me and we made up. I joined the family business of making wax candles of celebrities, and specialised in Tom Cruise and Michael Jackson, despite the fact no-one could find the wick on the "Tom Cruise" to light, and they always said my "Michael Jackson" looked melted. No, I was just trying to capture the moment.In conclusion, I would say I'm a happy, outgoing, well adjusted, normal member of society, and I am looking for my soulmate. You don't have to like animal husbandry but it would help. I have a tattoo of Marilyn Manson, but I had it done on my mother in case I didn't like it. I didn't. That was lucky. So, if you don't like tattoos, and we decide to meet up, I will ask my mother not to come with me for once. And best of all, I can do candlelit dinners, particularly if you're a Tom Cruise or Michael Jackson fan. But if you're a fan of another celebrity, send me a photo and I'll see what I can do- I recently waxed down Russell Crowe, despite the problems of getting the fur to stay on.
