The end is nigh! Soon, we shall put this all behind us  

I'm talking about 2025! We are in the final 100 yards of a 400 yard dash. We are in the final 3 minutes of a football game, we are about 150 yards out from the flag on a golf course on a Par 6.

We have securely made it into December. Only about 24 days left in 2025 and less if you live like in Australia or Fiji  For some reason I want to go to Fiji. I don't think it is is cheap though .

I know the whole March and April lion and lamb saying, but my gosh, did December come in like a lion here 😮 Snow, snow and more snow ! And cold 🥶. At this rate, we might have a white Christmas  

For my 'merican friends:

 

I guess if anyone was motivated to go out and find themselves a man to snuggle up to and stay warm, now is the time. You can reach me at 1-800-555-1212 (99¢/min. discrete charge to your phone bill) where I'm taking over-the-phone applications   Be prepared for a phone interview at the same time. Here are some of the questions so you are prepared and can practice:

• Are you a male?
• Are you alive, like with a heartbeat and such?
• Do you emit heat, or are you a heat taker? Like a snake 🐍 
• Are you the big spoon or the small spoon, or are do you think of yourself as a fork?  
• Are you hairy like a bear, or smooth as a twink?
• Are you currently in a giving mood or a taking mood  

There may be open ended question, so be prepared 😮. 

 

Now, after that disturbing preamble, let's get onto the wrap up. You are probably thinking I'm missing the question of the week but no, I'm not. What other questions should I be asking for possible December cuddlers?
