music (obviously :), my '57 Chevy Epiphone Casino and my '68 Gibson EB-2, writing, reading, dancing (not really the club type unless the music suits my taste), General American Speech, pushing boundaries, the Golden Era of Hollywood, corsetry, Sunday brunches, 1950s Playboy pin ups, photo shoots, psychology, ebay, fresh farmer's market produce, ginger root tea with honey,pin-up artwork, Victorian jackets, wit that never quite reaches the point of pretense, debates that never quite reach the point of an argument... i'm more hermetic than i should be for someone at my age, yet can serve as a part-time night owl when an interesting
conversation strikes with the right person... the times i am singing are about the only point at which i feel i'm not just taking up space.
I'd like to meet:
old soul types with a love for music that rivals my own and a black heart of pure rock and roll. cats/kittens with a better cd collection than me (so that i can discover new artists ;) social outcasts who realize the benefits of being left out. thrill-seekers to explore the city with me, one neighborhood at a time; or simply an intriguing stranger that can beguile me out of my shell. someone to help teach me harmonica, mandolin, violin. fellow photographers, designers, artists, and art enthusiasts. conversationalists that don't rely on the word "like" or fall back on "you know" to fill uncomfortable silences. myspacers that don't refer to me simply as a "model" (take a listen to the music playing...it's my own work ;) women with curves that can cause traffic accidents (and those who appreciate those of us who are blessed to have them ;) most importantly, musicians and recording engineers who actually understand my insane musical visions.. :) p.s. make an effort to communicate with me every once in a while. to a point, it's flattering to be collected...but, believe it or not, i can actually carry on a decent conversation.i don't kiss arse, and i don't fall all over myself to give false compliments. don't message me asking to "comment your pix"...if i think a picture deserves a comment, i most likely have already given it. ;)
