Eden [is in paradise]

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I aspire to be a writer, but lack the skills.
I sleep on bare mattresses, am obsessed with dieting (although that never quite works out for me), can tell if clothes are dirty just by smelling them, and am a walking contradiction.
I do not believe in making beds, curfews, and speed limits.
I am obsessed also with coupons, blue eyes, and things that sparkle.
I am not, by any stretch of the imagination, shy. But really, that's a lie.
I am indecisive, unless of course, I have to make a decision.
I am, without a doubt, the coolest person you'll ever meet.
"Is it so bad, then, to be misunderstood? Pythagoras was misunderstood, and Socrates, and Jesus, and Luther, and Copernicus, and Galileo, and Newton, and every pure and wise spirit that ever took flesh. To be great is to be misunderstood."-Emerson

It's Show Time, Baby!

And we fell asleep. On the couch. The baby asleep in her chair. Your arms wrapped around me tight. I was safe and secure. I haven't done that since the last serious one. And honestly, it scares me. I ...

I've been churning out posts in LJ like crazy.  How absurd.  Where'd this sudden inspiration come from? This reminds me of pink lemonade.  Which reminds me of Ali.  Which makes me ...
