  10. come out, come out, wherever you are…
    It’s no secret. I have a mad girl-crush on Miss Schmutzie….and i even weaseled my way on to her cockroll (dirty!) what she asks, i do, no questions asked. unless she’s asking me to go to work wearing nothing but my v-string, because then i’d be asking her if she’s out of her everloving mind. but i’d [...]
