Not everything is better spoken aloud...

About Me

I'm a total ham & love to make people laugh; I wear my heart on my sleeve; I'm easily amused; I play hard & love harder; I drink iced coffee in the dead of winter; I'm affectionate, passionate and give great hugs; I'm extremely loyal to my friends...they are my chosen family; I'm a hopeless romantic and optimistic to the point of being blind to issues bearing down on me; when I laugh I throw my head back and laugh wholeheartedly; I'm constantly listening to music & love being introduced to great bands that I've never heard before; I love the Red Sox, anything with peanut butter & chocolate together, Hoegaarden beer, sitting around a camp fire, walking in the rain, thunder storms, watching a good movie and snuggling, spontaneous road trips, the smell of fresh cut grass, and the feel of the sun kissing my skin on a summer's day. I see beauty in the smallest of things. My face is often too expressive for my own good & can sometimes get me into trouble (in both good & bad ways).

My Interests

Music, movies, karaoke, writing poetry, hugs, cuddling, gender bending, drag kings, Playa del Fuego, someday going to Burning Man, origami, going to concerts, random road trips, shakin' my booty, photography, Gender Crash, painting pottery at those "paint your own pottery" places, watching sunsets on the beach, laughing until I cry & my stomach hurts

I'd like to meet:

Lovers of bright colors, shiny objects and pretty sounds; people that are easily amused, laugh a LOT and will sing bad karaoke with me; those that share my love of laying in the middle of a field on a warm summer evening to look at the stars; tender-hearted, warm-spirited people.

Music:

Sarah McLachlan, Tegan and Sara, Indigo Girls, Catie Curtis, The Postal Service, Ani Difranco, Damien Rice, Melissa Ferrick, the Butchies, Patty Griffin, Straylight Run, Jack Johnson, Sufjan Stevens, Meghan Toohey, Chris Pureka, Coldplay, Imogen Heap, Sia, 30 Seconds to Mars, Kristy Lee, Adrianne, Liz Stahler, The Organ, anything I can dance to.

Movies:

Television:

Meh.

Is it really too much to ask that when you call someone, common courtesy is for them to call you back?  And if you send them a text message the next day, you'd think they'd get the hint that you ...
