About Me

First and foremost, if you're a Nazi... FUCK OFF. I'm a West Coast girl with East Coast attitude. At thirty, I'm already bitter and disillusioned. I work at a used book and record store with a lot of pseudo-intellectuals. I want to be a librarian when I grow up. I love the discipline, pride, loyalty, patriotism, and strength that it takes to be a Skin. I am a private person with true convictions. I've always been different. I hate hippies (there's lots of 'em where I live), but truly appreciate the beauty and symmetry of nature. I hope the planet survives the human race. That being said, I'm rapidly losing my faith in humanity. I like violence in general. I'm way into my cat, though half the time she's evil, like Church in Pet Sematary. When she's not being Church, her name is Bumpy. She's a punk rocker of sorts. I tend to be pessimistic. The Dark Side is a juggernaut (a terrible, irresistible force). I love to read and spend a lot of time indoors. I prefer sweater weather and hate the hot sun. I love my country, though I detest the current regime with all its sinister machinations. I like the idea of secret societies and ancient knowledge, like the Knights Templar and Freemasons. I believe in a time when man will once again embrace valor and live by a rigorous moral code.
