About Me

I am a fabulous mess.
Men never can be.
Not like a girl.
A classic girl...
Such a classic girl...
They may say, Those were the days...,
But in a way,
You know for us these are the days.
Yes, for us these are the days,
And you know you're my girl!
Such a classic girl...
Such a classic girl... -Jane's Addiction

My Interests

Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need of my care,
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
_Maya Angelou


- Egon Schiele

I wonder if the cabbage knows
She is less lovely than a rose
Or does she squat in smug content
A source of noble nourishment.
As my artist's statement explains, my work is utterly incomprehensible and is therefore full of deep significance.
- Bill Watterson, Calvin and Hobbes

I'd like to meet:

Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get
only what you are expecting to give which is everything.
What you will receive in return varies.
But it really has no connection with what you give.
You give because you love and cannot help giving.
-Kate Hepburn
