<p>
I bought the blue wig at Target.  It had shoulder length hair.  I just wanted a cap to build my wig on.  Sadly, they did not have green.  </p>
<p>I chopped a lot of hair off the wig.  I was going for a short layered look, but I haven&#8217;t a clue how to cut hair.  There are (almost) no bald spots, and the hair is short.  I call that a sucess.</p>
<p>I like this big snake.  The tail even has a rattle!  </p>
<p>Sadly, after piling a couple dozen snakes on my head, the wig looked like blue hair with snakes piled on my head.  </p>
<p>So I took all the snakes off (note to self: hot glue sticks permanently to blue nylon hair) and started over.  Stay tuned.</p>

<p>How can you be a widow and a father?  You have one daughter; any sons?  That&#8217;s a bummer about her mom.  I don&#8217;t remember my mom.  I came to live with Mami when I was 6 weeks old.  What are your 3 scheduled steps?  I don&#8217;t have much of a schedule.  I do know when it is dinner time.  I don&#8217;t gots no kids.  </p>

<p>I have my own company.  Lily Mastiff Protection.  No one messes with me.</p>

<p>You were born a pirate!  That&#8217;s cool.  Do you have a ship and sail the 7 seas?  </p>

<p>I&#8217;ve only lived in California for 4 years.  I live in my home, too. What a coincidence!</p>

<p>My abuelo was a licensed civil engineer.  He built freeways.  He built the freeway by my home.  He didn&#8217;t travel much.  He worked for the State of California back when CalTrans was the Dept. of Hiways.  I have never been out of California.  What&#8217;s it like to travel?</p>

<p>Mami says I am a special, sweet girl.  I haven&#8217;t had any past relationships.  All my relationships are present.  My biggest goal is to spend time indoors with Mami or Papi.  I dream about pig ears.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m sure that friendship with you will be filled with something.</p>
<p>> I care </p>
<p>I care, too.</p>

Her mum died when She was 3yrs old.

I even want to learn about the secrets you very rarely share with someone!. So come on and share it all with me, as I am not here to talk to you about general things such as partying, the weather, sports, e.c.t. I want to learn about you and what makes up your heart and soul, as the friendship like you said you want us to be a friend,I want it to be like no other you have ever shared in or experienced.
