I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Moved to Chicago from Cleveland in November of 2004 to pursue my dreams, a better place to live and grow creatively, and follow my heart. Somewhat unfortunately, I've been away from my beloved city for far too long. But it's all for a very good thing, namely my wonderful fiance, Ash. We're getting married on Halloween!I'm fun, loyal, loving, stubborn, fiercely protective of the people I care about, somewhat outspoken, have developed the act of shoving my foot in my mouth into a fine art, demand respect of my person, my relationships, and my personal boundaries, and am just trying make myself a comfy little place in this world surrounded by good people and be with that special guy. I can also be quite the princess when I feel like it (it's usually when I want to be left alone). I firmly believe in the significant in significant other. I think at this point I've pretty much given up on some people figuring their shit out. Self-love is key in positive relationships, be they friendship or otherwise. Everything in life takes commitment. Otherwise, it's only half-assed and not nearly as fulfilling as it could be. Each lifetime is way too short to do anything half-assed, especially by the time one hits their thirties. There comes a time when you gotta buck up, take that long look in the mirror, and sort your life out. I am beyond ready for the good stuff that I know is out there. Oh, and one of the most ironic sayings that was ever thrown in my face is that you shouldn't throw stones in glass houses. It's true. There are definitely some people in this world who have no place in my life, whether directly or indirectly. They should know who they are. I love stompy electronic music, gaming, theatre, museums, taking pictures, reading, and all kinds of other stuffs!.. I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

My Interests

Shakespeare, Shadowrun, powernoise/electro/industrial, theatre and theatre arts, set design, sound design, lighting design, love, being happy, getting what I want for once, Invader Zim, my kitties, Lenore, JTHM, Dawn, Kabuki, Warhammer, fake hair, big stompy boots, shiny things, Haujobb, Hocico/Dulce Liquido, promotions, Front 242, zombies (and the boys who love them), balance, dj'ing, yoga, tai chi, aromatherapy, healing, nemesis productions, faeries, falconry, my friends and my love, and millions of other things.

I'd like to meet:

People who aren't full of shit, and who don't take pleasure in other people's misery or misfortune. Honest, down-to-earth, fun people only need apply here. I AM NOT LOOKING TO DATE OR GET HIT ON DAMN IT!!!!! If the ONLY reason you want to add me as a "friend" is because you are trolling for chicks online, look elsewhere! I'm beyond taken, and quite happy about it. I'm also not into sharing...poly just isn't my thing, so don't bother asking. I'm NOT into metal...the few metal bands on here are personal friends of mine or have something that makes them stick out a bit from the rest. Just isn't my genre, so don't bother sending a request. I'm sure there's other people out there who will appreciate your stuff more then I will. If you want to add me as a friend, and you're not a band who might fit in with my listed interests, a fellow dj, or someone I know personally, I'd appreciate a small message telling me why you want to add me as a friend. "Hey baby, ur HOTT!" does not count.I also have a livejournal. It's nemesisn72. If any bands are looking to play shows in Cleveland or Chicago and want my help, feel free to im me via aolim with the same username. :) I'll do what I can to make it easier for you. MY INTERNET IS LIMITED THESE DAYS, SO PLEASE BE PATIENT WITH ME. If you're feeling neglected, just drop me a message.And now, some shameless pimpingClick the banner and visit In Winter.

You know you want to...

I know I haven't been online in quite some time, and I will again lament my lack of internet at home.  I have to drive at least 20 minutes to get access these days, so needless to say, it can be ...

Things to be thankful for.

I didn't get to post on Thanksgiving, so this is a bit late, and while I don't really personally feel the need to celebrate a holiday that stems from such negative things (look it up if you don't know...
