About Me

Sometimes I laugh so hard I fall over. I try not to take anything seriously and if you can't laugh at yourself you probably would hate me. I like comfortable silences, I like mint green ceramic tile. I love the smell of old libraries, it makes me want to curl up under the table and take a nap. I like the smell of thrift stores, cigarettes, and old roadmaps. I dislike meat, racists, and homophobes. I'm not too keen on conservatives, or butt kissers. I love tofu, I like it in everything. Lobsters are giant sea roaches. Giant squids are pretty swell, someday I will see a live one. I dont think gender is binary. I don't like it when people label themselves or marginalize their experiances. I like the grittiness of life. I don't like it when people write religious sermons in bathroom stalls, I would rather not have to think about going to hell while I'm taking a leak. My god is not a vengeful god, and he would never send anyone to hell. I love my son, he's 3 and brilliant. I like dancing goofy with him in the livingroom. He can sing the whole AQTHF theme song. My husband is my straight man, he makes everything possible and pulls me back down when I fly too high. I have a Boston Terrier named Molly PrettyPretty Wigglebottom. She's basically at the level of a 3 month old baby, I can't keep her out of my lap. I like writing, I like singing. Most of the time I like to make/break things with my hands. I swoon when I see hands splattered in ink or paint. Paint under fingernails is the manicure of punk kids. I'm too hippy to be punk but my heart is kinda radical. I am a driven individual, but I will never step on you to get anywhere. I will never leave you in the foxhole while I galavant away. Really, what more could you ask for in a friend?
