How am I supossed to think outside the box if I work in a cubicle?

About Me


Im a photographer. I write, Profusely, In my free time. Nothing beats a Meagan moment. I stumble. I laugh often. I spill and im clumsy. Im a huge dork, nerd, geek and all of the above.
I find comfort in the simple things in life: photography, art, a pencil, sunshine, Love, music. All of which would keep me content for the rest of my life.
I'm pretty agreeable and optimistic, but strike on something I'm passionate about and I can get downright scary with my preaching.
Let me just put it out there that I'm horrible at giving directions. Sometimes simple jokes go right over my head. Sometimes I'm too busy in my dream world that I don't pay attention when I should. Sometimes I'll randomly start to sing while you're speaking to me {and I should probably apologize in advanc}
Music is a big part of who I am. My taste in genres vary from Folk, Bluegrass, Backyard, Indie-Rock, Rockabilly and Post Punk to Jazz, Classical and Inspirational. I started playing the piano when I was 8 {I owe that to my grandpa}. I've since then picked up a few more instruments but nothing too spectacular like the Harmonica or the accordion, although that would be SAHWEET to learn!
I often tend to slip out some crazy noises and sayings {most of it nonsense}, sweeping arm gestures, huge hugs, and sarcasm. Sometimes I make up my own words. It makes people laugh. And I like to make people laugh
Im different. And I like it.

I'd like to meet:

People I can learn from. People I can teach. People who share my opinions. People with opinions different from my own. People who can engage me in a deep conversation and keep it going for hours. People from different religious/ethnic/cultural backgrounds. People who aren't afraid to laugh. People that care. Open-minded people.
