She asked me,
“What do you write about?”
In a moment of total honesty,
I told her,
“Booze, broken hearts and blowjobs.”
She exclaimed,
“Oh...I LOVE blowjobs!
and never understand girls
who don’t do them.”
We spoke more,
and were drinking,
so I knew she liked booze as well.
She said she would like
to get my book sometime.
We finished our drinks
and walked out.
I told her I had a copy
in my truck that
I could give to her--
she told me
she didn’t have any cash.
I told her,
“With everything we have in common
I’m sure we can work something out,
after all, I’m not in this just for the money.”

Well Todd money also isn't king for me because no women want to be with 50 yards of my existence (or are legally permitted to anyways) so stop showing off your talent!
