Oh poor Iguana. No wonder he looks down in the mouth.
Big responsibility for a little lizard!
LOL!!!!
Years ago my wife and her girl friends took under their wings a male coworker who not only suffered through a very bad divorce but his first serious relationship after the marriage ended badly as well. I met the guy once back in 1992 and he told me about a time his "sisters" decided to cheer him up by taking out one night to a big outdoor folk music concert.
Figuring they were about to try and set him up with a girlfriend he got all cleaned up and was feeling extra good. Much to his surprise it was a gay and lesbian community concert with the majority of the women attending not interested in guys.
Luckily, things got better a year or so later when he went on vacation to Hawaii and met his current wife.
Oh no .. she'll have to swim for it
Lonely lizard. It'll have to go, travel.
Down in the mouth? Desperate is the word you're looking for Valerie LOL
It certainly is AJ!
OMH that's a great story Beach. Glad the trip to Hawaii ended better for the guy.
Poor sad Iguana, the whole island? Good post!
Yep, I agree with you Daryl and Anthony, she'll definitely have to travel!
Yes the whole island BankerChick, sad isn't it? ;)

Oh, poor Liz. She'll have to learn how to swim. It's sink or swim now.

Sad indeed! Unless she happens upon a rather studly newt (and I don't mean Gingrich). ;-)
Aw...not the best position to be in. She's going to end up an old maid.
Oh, the poor iguana, foiled before she even begins. Excellent take on the prompt, though.
