I don't do a lot of soul searching. I do a lot of thinking quietly.

Ha, only if by "too many" you mean "any at all"... I have done so much sweating under this cloak I'm making that I think I want to go naked underneath.

TPBM is looking forward to not giving a fuck about how much skin is showing.

I don't show a lot of skin, not my thang. Besides, redhead + sun = lots of pain.

Seeing the end of the rut and finding that groooooove is about where I am now. I've even been known to say "GROOVY" on occasion.

I prefer green:

I push the limits of what is acceptable in everyday life and want to bring the burn to defaultia by even creating a 24/7 place next door with a Retrofrolic feel. It is a work in progress at this time.

I rarely worry about showing skin and live life in the nude as much as possible.
