54. Boxer Day, Medical Insurance

A lot of things I miss about Canada.

My favorite day was Robbie Burns Day. I don't know how many Canadians celebrate it, but many of my co-workers in Vancouver did. I always loved reading Robert Burns & thought it was so cool they had a day named for him.

[billyskank]

7. Marry me

You can get a job here, medical care is funded from general taxation. It'd be great. :7

You'd have to clear it with lelapin, of course. ;)

:grouphug:

[Porcupine]

53. a dance partner.

I've given up on dating since i'm ugly and broke but it would be nice to be able to improve some social skills. A dance partner who could be a buddy and nicely critique and help me improve would be great.

It would probably be easier to just get sex but wtf, ask for what you want.

[crim son]

60. I'll tell you: if we weren't geographically challenged

and if I didn't have rheumatoid arthritis, I'd dance with you. All types of dance, I love. You will find a dance partner, Porcupine. Don't give up the search. :hug:

[Porcupine]

64. Well thank you!!!

Hum a waltz and take a turn for me. I like to dance because it's the most enjoyable form "play" you can get with a stranger or somebody elses partner.
Sometimes your own partner too. It's nice to genuinely make somebody smile and laugh and I do that better at dance classes than anywhere else.

I hope you get out and round the floor a few times soon. Smile at your lead and think of poor strangers out west.

[Neoma]

58. Some self respect.

[Nicole]

Am an orphan with one grown child who is a student.
BF's relatives are all on West Coast.

Need to create "instant friends 'n' dinner" for Xmas. Turkey, dressing, sweet potatoes, all that good stuff. Don't want food to go to waste.
Am trying to organize it at the moment.


In Houston. PM me.
