Last week, all of that changed when I met this cutie with short black hair.<BR/><BR/>Was it love at first sight, or was I just reminded that those are the type of women I actually really like?photohypehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17422413940167687439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4330571463336136815.post-91321747559015304872009-02-09T11:47:00.000-08:002009-02-09T11:47:00.000-08:00Awesome job man...truly.
