@ScottWhitaker first of all let me just tell you this is a much, a VERY much edited version of the message I had written to send you. Any way I'm following you and would like it if you followed back! I write poetry too, so you can check that out if you want. (Ya, this is a much pleasant, and milder, and saner message)

@ScottWhitaker, (will u be posting on here after June?) I want a book of yours that i can page while i read it. :) I will let u have the address of my friend in Utah to whom u can post it if you'll be so kind...he's coming here in May; he will bring it to me. I'm scared it gets lost if it has to travel to Namibia by itself. Will that be fine with u?

@seasofme They are twins, blonde, slim, alien-like, and completely sociopathic. Cruel, fashionable characters that I have written about from time...Adam To Samantha, At Tea

@Lisaner Thanks! I'm from the Eastern Shore, VA, but I've tramped all over the place. Jersey is a very underrated state, in my opinion.
