this life is a thump ripe melon, so sweet and such a mess

About Me

workaholic power nap loving mama; lover, fighter, flatulent tattooed nose picker. freckled. flirt. living life and respecting choices... not into gossip, people's shit, or whiners.
the real me:

I want everyone in the world to strive toward emotional participation. don't try to solve the world's problems, solve your own and then engage. the world is fucked up, but that's how it's supposed to be, it's not our job to fix it, but to change ourselves- basically if we all just cleaned up after ourselves, said sorry when we're wrong, actively involved ourselves in feeling good pretty much the rest of the crap we're inundated with would wither away (it's okay, I still try to change the world one cup of coffee, one conversation, one fuckin' footsetep at a time)
sentimental and emotional, driven and hard working, volatile and aware.This profile was edited with MySpace Profile Editor MySpace Profile EditorRead my VisualDNA ™ Get your own VisualDNA™

My Interests

socks, pants that my ass fit in, dichotomy, mythology, good pens, new notebooks, ambient lighting, wood, reflections, things that smell good, stress, work, naps, hammocks, men in lab coats, eyeglasses, men who wear eyeglasses and labcoats.

I'd like to meet:

smart pronoid people who yearn to be understood and make an impact on the world. people with open minds who aren't afraid to be pissed off. people who want to know more about me. people who have reasons but lack excuses. Lost children who need a kickass mom. Anyone who can hold a conversation (text or otherwise)without computer chat acronyms. Beautiful, artistic people who want me as their groupie. Scrabble Junkies. Potential employees. Old boyfriends. I don't ever want to talk to anybody I knew in iowa except maybe bill, chris, jay and james wiggs. oh and angie and heathers. wish I could remember their last names.People who send messages to introduce themselves as to why I might want to expand my friend bubble beyond 8 gazillion.
