My Personal Ad Part 2

I'm a blue collar worker who works outdoors 
and I'm also required to wear a hard hat all day. 
My exposed skin and face tan at a very fast pace, 
but beneath that hard hat, absolutely no way. 
The last time I went bandanna free, 
someone got distracted, lost their footing and tripped. 
All I heard as I fled the scene was, "Did you see that human Q-tip?" 
In addition to speaking in rhyme, I dress in black all the time 
but that shouldn't reflect upon my personality. 
I just claim not to be so great when I attempt to color coordinate 
but the simple truth is black is safe and I'm just lazy. 
I live the single lifestyle and by that I simply mean that I have chosen to live alone. 
I enjoy True Solitude, so I don't share living quarters very well. 
My home has to be My Home. 
I keep mostly to myself but that shouldn't suggest that I can't be the life of the party.
Back in my day I wore many a lampshade. 
Now I've calmed down. I don't party too hearty. 
Well, enough about me. What about you? 
What are your interests, your passions? 
What do You like to do? 
Who knows where this might go or how it might end. 
At the very least, I Hope to find A Real and True Friend. 
Oh yeah, one last thing I need to mention to you. 
A little sex from you also would be very nice too. 

I was doing very well. I was doing just fine 
and then I had to blow it with the very last line. 
Am I right ladies? Damnit!

Please do not respond to the above ad ladies. It is now null and void. I pretty much live the 
life of a hermit these days.
