I'd like to meet:
I have lots of cool people in my life. I'm mostly here to keep those folks up to date on what I do, in case I don't get to see them as often as I'd like. if you know me, you have a good idea of what I'm like and why you are whatever degree of friend you are to me. I'm always open for that status to move up or down, depending on the person I become or you become. show love, give love, and be love. fuckin hippies.
btw, those of you with nothing positive to say can talk to yourselves. I don't need your self righteous destructive attitude. I can ruin my own life, thank you very much.
