I have nothing to offer you but my time, my love, friendship and my support. I can't open any significant 'doors' for you; I have very few influential connections and I don't make much money, or live in the penthouse apartment in the hippest part of town. I don't shop at Neiman's and I don't spend $400 a day on anything, or party like a rock star. I don't have implants or a golden tan, or bleached blond extensions, and I'm not 5'9" with a foreign accent and a square jaw line. Nope. Nothing to see here, folks! My parents weren't rich and I don't have a trust fund to bankroll your business. They're happily married and still in love, and take a yearly vacation to Reno-- but drive there, because they can't afford to fly. They play the nickel slots at The Nugget and are ecstatic when they hit 'the big one' for $500. They still hold hands after 50 years ...and that's gotta count for something. I'm not a babe, I don't have a drug habit, can't hold my liquor, and I'm 20 lbs. overweight because I'm too busy worrying about everything else in my life to do anything about it, and too busy working to put my son through college to even consider having liposuction. There's really nothing remarkable about me at all. But I would give you my last dime and the shirt off my back if you needed it. I would fight like a wildcat if anyone caused you harm. My eyes are not blue, but they're in love with you ...and that's gotta' count for something. |
