O you know my name is Amy...and I like to do "drawrings"!
I use this site as a way of keeping in touch with friends and family, and also to find cool music and artists. Feel free to send me a message if you'd like to add me as a friend.I keep an illustrated journal as well, if you want to check it out: 9 Moons Ago
I like watching the clothes in the washing machine, distracting crying two year olds, and eating huge pieces of tiramisu.
People who inspire me to laugh, dance, think, create, love. Craig Ferguson. Michael Stipe.
