About Me


Layout & Graphics by Fyreflye
..
"She's So Unusual" - A walking, talking, breathing dichotomy. Serious yet fun. Intense and intelligent but sometimes airheaded. Outspoken while quiet. Loves to cook yet hates to clean. Opinionated but open-minded. Nothing you'd expect yet everything that's cliche about redheads. . . and Scorpios.

Artist, entrepreneur, designer, mother, lover, wife, independent liberal, free thinker, music lover, writer, self-admitted "nerd". Driven, motivated, competitive. Fiercely feminine but can talk football, NASCAR, and quantum physics with the guys. Loves a good debate and an intelligent meeting of the minds.

You Are Liz Phair!
Sexy tough indie girl who's not afraid to be a little girly.
"I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess"
Who's Your Inner Rock Chick?
Your Musical Tastes Match: Dale Earnhardt Jr.
What Celebrity Matches Your Taste in Music?
You Are a Fierce Femme

You have a wild side, and you aren't afraid to bring it out when the time is right. But you also know when to hang back and keep your "crazy chick" persona in check. In fact, some of your friends may be surprised to find out how far you can take it...
You may look mild mannered, but it's all an act!
Are You a Daring Woman?
You are a Self-Discoverer
You're not religious, but you've created your own kind of spirituality. Introspective and thoughtful, you tend to look inward for the divine. You are distrusting of all forms of organized religion. You especially dislike religious gurus and leaders, who you feel are charlatans.
What's Your Religious Philosophy?
You Are 90% Real
There's hardly a person on this earth more real than you are. You have no problem showing people who you are, flaws and all. For you, there couldn't be any other way because it's way too stressful to live an inauthentic life. You're very comfortable with yourself. And because of this, you're able to live an exciting, interesting, and challenging life.
How Real Are You?
Your Birthdate: November 16

You're incredibly introverted and introspective. You live inside your head. You spend a lot of alone time meditating and thinking. People see you as withdrawn, and at times they are right. You are caring and deep, but it may be difficult for you to show this side of yourself.
Your strength: Your original approach to thinking.
Your weakness: You tend to shy away from others.

My Interests

So many interests and never enough time to learn everything...

    Music Reading Writing Politics Technology Lingerie Psychology Geology Meteorology Paganism 420+ Beaches Pirates Shooting pool Trees GOOD Anime! NASCAR
    Storm Chasing Herbs Free Thinkers Open minds Japan... and Japanese culture The Internet Design Vampires Dancing Fire, fire, fire! Astronomy Astrology Tarot Thunderstorms Philosophy Dragonflies Sex *grin*


I'd like to meet:

Are you REAL? Have you ever been called "weird" or "different" as if it were something bad? Are you an artistic soul or a tortured genius? Do you eschew plasticity and pretentiousness? Are your friends TRUE friends because you chose them carefully? Can you appreciate the beauty in difference without insisting that everyone shares your POV? When someone asks what you value in a mate or a friend, is intelligence at the top of the list? Do you "get it"?

Then I want to meet you... so drop me a line or simply "add" me.

Music:

GENRES: Techno, Industrial, Metal, Electronic, Alternative, Jazz

I have VERY eclectic taste and pretty much like some of everything except for Gospel, Country or Opera.

ARTISTS: Tool, Megadeth, Atreyu, Breaking Benjamin, Nine Inch Nails, Godsmack, Live, System of a Down, Nickelback, Type O Negative, White Zombie, Bush, Aesop Rock, The Doors, Sublime

Movies:

Contact, The Matrix, Young Guns, The Lost Boys, Dogma, Labyrinth, 9 1/2 Weeks, Stargate, Strange Days, Tombstone, Pirates of the Caribbean, Dazed and Confused, From Dusk 'Til Dawn, The Ghost and Mrs. Muir

Television:

THE DEADLIEST CATCH RAWKS!

Battlestar: Galactica (the NEW one), Doctor Who, Deathnote, Bleach, The Boondocks, Samurai Champloo, Father Ted, Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends

I LOVE watching music videos! It really intrigues me to see such diverse creative vision and inspiration; I get a real charge out of seeing how music can be interpreted in so many different ways. I can sit for hours watching videos, even for songs I don't like, just to examine the myriad concepts they represent.

Books:

Piers Anthony, Madeleine L'Engle, Mercedes Lackey

Chthon, The Andromeda Strain, The Mists of Avalon, A Wrinkle in Time, "Incarnations of Immortality" series, Urban Primitive, Gothic Grimoire, Rush

What about comic strips and graphic novels? Do they count? :-D

Heroes:

Heroes have feet of clay. We put them on pedestals only to watch them crumble and fall, sometimes when we needed them most.
..
A hero is someone who rebels or seems to rebel against the facts of existence and seems to conquer them. Obviously that can only work at moments. It can't be a lasting thing. - Jim Morrison
Hero-worship is strongest where there is least regard for human freedom. - Herbert Spencer
