Gus, I think I'm in love Grin

I know right?
A girl that can and WILL wrench?
A unicorn for sure!

She is an oddball for sure; but I actually have two daughters like that. The other one is married now and has 4 boys. She built her own chicken coop a couple years ago. She made money in college fixing other students rigs in the parking lot of the dorms.

This one, tho, is unattached but not readily available; so she says. She's gonna be a good catch for some young whippersnapper. She's good lookin, smart, a hard worker and tight with the purse strings. Sh's got 3 years of college left.

Now we know what Gus does for a living, he raises unicorns Grin

Sure wish I'd met one like that when I was a younger man (actually I did, unfortunately, she, too, was unavailable so far as a permannet commitment was concerned Sad
