Hi!

I'm a flying squirrel. Years ago, I often went on RealCTY editing sprees. I still do sometimes, but nowhere near as often.

I can...sort of rave? And teach people? I cannot guarantee that I won't accidentally hit you (or myself) in the face with a glow stick or poi. You have been warned :) If you're interested, hmu I'm one of those crazy people with the spinning lightbulbs (aka poi).

I like you, I love you, I CTY you!
