humor or being silly, joking style is a "no" and that is a good thing because she doesn't also realize that even though she calls herself "boring" she is a woman who is exact in knowing what she wants and she gets what she gets. In fact you take a deeper look at her and she has a facade as being the "silly freak" that I am and she is by FAR that way in all seriousness though. True I was a kid when I met her and had crossed her, and I apologize very badly but in a way I am glad that I had cuz idk at least she is still around me, right? We need more people like her because, okay, she has taken a LOT of random fucking shit from me especially.. LITERALLY i work inside of a CHURCH but it does not MEAN i follow that shit. i in fact, funny enough, informed the Pastor that I am going to do as I will and believe as I do and if that don't work then "BYE!" idk, the Pastor is an older guy than me, not too too much older but yeah he older than me... but he said he didn't care. He said we are Lutherans here and well kid u have a gift. He said that he had never experienced as many complaints in his life after I had not helped out for Easter with the music and such. I told him for Easter I needed my own time. So I took it and I only told him that because I really do not owe him an explanation.



I told her she was "clean" because she does NOT smoker nor drink and she also do not take recreational drugs. She is a highly structured person and if I really could meet her I'd probably spoil her to dickens... lol, well I'd like to spoil her but THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH FINANCIAL ANYTHING AND I LOVE EVERYBODY EQUALLY AND ALL THAT CRAP AND THIS HAS NOTHING AT ALL TO DO WITH FUCKING ANY BODY, but as I had said before this is our thing. It's me an her, yes FOR LIFE. I ONLY SPEND IT ON HER AND FOR HER.
