About Me

Born in Florida...moved to NY...Leixlip...Dublin... Edinburgh. Now back in NYC for the last year and a half.

Spend most of my free time drinking too much in Queens, going to shows and watching Celtic...now that summer is here I like to spend Sunday's watching the Gaelic up in the Bronx.

Just trying to earn my keep and have a great time while I'm here!

A few things I adore: My family, my few true friends that I can act like an ass in front off, Glasgow Celtic, Woodside CSC...which keeps me sane but not sober, music, films, architecture, travel,my neighborhood, bread pudding (sinfull), my cat Brown, great conversations, drunken lazy Sunday afternoons.

I'm a well adjusted and quite traditional girl in many ways,despite my tattoo's & desire to wake up at the crack of dawn just to watch footie and drink huge amounts of beer.

Which Trainspotting Character Are You?

My Interests

Glasgow Celtic, my cat Brown, exploring new cities, music, Degas, Charles Rennie Mackintosh, antique teapots, Magpies (the bird,not the team), photography, cobble stone, tattoos, the sound of frieght trains, Hot Rods & Classic cars, properly brewed tea, the ocean, wandering, thunder storms, quality bedding, winter...sans black ice.

I'd like to meet:


Must be kind, but smart asses welcome. People to enjoy life with, and be motivated by and learn from. People who I will actually meet someday would be great obviously.

all. you are the coolest of the bunch. bravo,
dude.

what type of lame scenester are you?

Mark Geary, Mark Erelli & John Francis

What a great fucking show. Haven't seen such talent in a very long while.  I forgot how great the sound at Joe's Pub is and what a wonderful welcome back to NYC.
