Well hellloooo there topolo hunny! I'm a tweener with a dog. Only does
110 lbs of cat-hatin' dobe outtahell qualify? I'm currently not single,
but hey - I could always get a divorce (I can say this without fear of
any nasty spousal repercussions - my wife couldn't tell e-mail from
hermaphrodite). I'm a part time vegetarian too (always eat my salad on
the side). And boy is my writing background strong! Why, I once carried
a 15 lb manuscript up 42 flights of stairs to what turned out to be a
publisher of a lesbian body-builder magazine (it was a mistake!). Alas,
as for slumber parties, I tend to sleep right through them :( But baby
- 5 out of 21 ain't bad!

SAO ;-)
