It gets worse…

I think that garrett has written you. He probably wasn’t your type but
I just had to give this a shot. This picture is when he was homecoming
king and he would kill me if he knew I sent it but I figured it was better
then one of those naked bath tube baby pictures . Garrett is looking for
some one that he can be best friends with. He moved to seattle not to long
ago and he’s got lots of friends that followed him up there but he just
wants to fine that special girl. I really think your amazing writing me
back. Thanks so much for the e-mail. I hope that you get a chance to meet
him.
Lou

Here’s the photo she attached, from my days without facial hair. The horror!
