Fingerlaker, 85

I'm kind of an ordinary guy, nothing special. I don't think I'm particularly good-looking, but I don't scare little kids. I like to think I'm easy-going, but my friends tell me I can get moody at times. What do they know? I'm retired, so I write gay-theme stories on the internet--no ----. I live a quiet life with the Mutt, a stubborn little Shih Tzu, who thinks she's a Rottweiler.

I'm looking for a guy who's mature but still has a sense of fun. Looks aren't a big issue, although I do have a problem with severe overweight. I'm not looking for a grand passion; I'm more interested if finding someone who is willing to take the time to develop a relationship between us that will last. That won't happen overnight, but, hey, we've only got the rest of our lives to get it right.
