About Me

no bs. I'm just a girl. I'm soft. I smell good. Sometimes I'm really intense, sometimes plain hyper, mostly I'm just being. Gemini, year of the Dog. left-handed, skirt-wearing, non-smoking omnivore. I'm a fan of live music, good movies, yummy food. I believe the children are our future. my favorite flower is the gardenia- simple pale delicate blossom perfection with surprising resilience and a bold, brilliant scent. I'm thankful for TiVo, the iPod and David Sedaris. I'm not difficult, I'm definite (when I can make up my mind). I'm learning to tell it like it is, heart on my sleeve. I am charmed, I lack discipline, I am resourceful. I obsess but I'm easily distracted. I grew up with a drum set next to the tv set. I like to believe in ultimate goodness while maintaining my cynical outlook. I make a really good 3rd or 5th wheel. I'd rather watch hockey than basketball. I don't eat fish. I have phenomenal parking luck, I forget to focus that energy into the rest of my life. I'm a generous tipper. I have a potty mouth, I possess great wisdom, I am a multi-tasker. I'm trying hard to remember that you can't be all things to all people/can't please everyone. I'm afraid of birds. I'm a mess, but I clean up well. I'd like to take a nap. sometimes I feel so full of love that I'm afraid I might explode. when it comes to medical remedies, I'm a big fan of anything that fizzes or is self adhesive. I think that's about it... oh, and nothing personal against the totally random people out there, but I will most likely not approve friend requests from people I don't actually know, I'm not here to collect people like beanie babies or whatever. that's just how I roll.wanna take my test?

My Interests

snooze button, taking pictures, late breakfast, the beach, forensics, double A batteries, procrastinating, singing when no one can hear me, bath products, yahtzee! scrabble & crazy 8s, wanting what I can't have, tripping over my own two feet, scandal, shoes, rehearsing my alibi, TotalFark

I'd like to meet:

people who have learned from the life they've lived and know there is always more to learn. people who want to tell me their secrets, who I can trust with mine. people who think, people who feel.I want to meet people smarter than me, who create something - even if it's just a good feeling or a pretty space. people who use language as art, people who recognize the consequences of their actions, who communicate effectively, people who understand loss. someone who doesn't view giving in as defeat. people who don't expect or ask for more than they're willing to give. people who inspire me to be a better version of myself. people who don't take themselves too seriously. a really good kisser. a partner in crime. I want to be told bedtime stories. I want to be completely fascinated and impressed. sense of humor is a must.

Music:

I used to be dialed in but now I can't even see the loop. I'm a little stuck in the 90s. 80s, some new bands, other old stuff, anything reminding me of someone I love, your band, mix tapes from you.

Movies:

some like it hot, viva las vegas

Television:

slayers, vamps, witches, aliens, law, crime, the daily show, curb your enthusiasm, dumb sitcoms are a guilty pleasure

Books:

nancy drew, naked, catcher in the rye, girl, warhol diaries, helter skelter & other true crime stuff, zagat SF, dictionary of superstitions, Lamb: the gospel according to Biff, Christ's childhood pal, love is a mix tape

Heroes:

all my heroes are dead and gone.
