About Me

Reddish purple with pinkish silver linings =)I wanna find neverland... And when i do with the man who is actually really mine (minus the snagging and all that ish) and who i'm ridiculously, inconveniently, "i-can't-live-without-you" kind of in love with, i'll be set for life. Oh, and i'm tinkerbell... Hullo..

I'd like to meet:

I don't know really. All i know is that i wanna marry someone seemingly like me but not really "like" me. Different... Someone who loves poetry and worships me, make shitloads of money and bear his babies who will grow up to be beautiful and intelligent enough to rule the world. Someone i can have the best conversations with even the most incoherent and senseless of conversations as long as their fun can be counted as one of the bests. Oh and he has to know how to be Green somehow. It's such a nice color, that's why... So there, you do the math... And if there is someone, i'm just a click away with a packa gum and 2 bottles of Sola (i finally felt sorry for my lungs and quit smoking. As for the drinking, i'm getting there, lay-off)... while finding neverland. I never want to grow up.
