About Me

"I passionately hate the idea of being with it, I think an artist has always to be out of step with his time."-Orson Welles (1915 - 1985)
I'M ALICIA...Princess, Poet, Delicate, Tender-hearted, Hopeful, Optimistic, Sympathetic, Faithful, Loving, Giving, Playful, Old-fashioned yet wildly modern...WELCOME TO MY PAGE!
"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself." -Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 - 1900)
SOME THINGS ABOUT ME
My life is about love, faith, family, friends and making a difference in the time I have.
I keep my friends list small intentionally. If you're on it, you're special!
If you are famous(or think you are), I won't be someone's crazy fangirl, but I will be your friend and do all I can to support you. I just won't be buying your used chewing gum on eBay.
If you do drugs, GET AWAY FROM ME! I want nothing to do with it! Shopping is my only drug!
Check out www.etsy.com for incredible handmade goods in every category imaginable! It's my favorite website!
I have more missions and causes than most people have teeth. Without them, I wouldn't be me! And yeah, I would be pretty bored too. :)
I am pretty much the kindest person you will ever meet. I do lots of things for everyone for no reason all the time. I have no intentions or ulterior motives outside of sincere friendship, no matter who you are. If I want something from you, I'll just ask!
I'm pretty much always smiling! Why be grumpy when you can make everyone else smile too?
I don't tolerate hate or ignorance, period.
I am a fabulous full-figured woman. I'm ok with it, and you should be too!
Above all, I hope you enjoy my page and getting to know a bit about me.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'm looking for kind, interesting people with a creative side and a great sense of humor. Also people who really VALUE friendship. A bit off the beaten path is fine with me!

Romantically, what am I REALLY looking for? Ok...he MUST be ok with me being Catholic and if he is too (or willing to become so)that would rock, must love my cat, loves to eat (because I love to cook!), faithful, respectful of my faith, doesn't have to be rich but can care for a family, thinks indie music you've never heard is just the best, has some seriously old-fashioned values, snappy dresser and will slow dance with me whenever I want to. Oh, and if he happens to smell like Egyptian Musk, that would be jazzy too. :)

The first and last thing you should know about me is that my faith, finally, is central in my life. I wouldn't be who I am now without my relationship with God!

The Candy Dish

Tonight as I ate my humble supper, I observed above my mother's head an old candy dish on the shelf. It is carved crystal with a sharply pointed lid, set atop a brass claw foot and a marble base....
