About Me


Some have called me a chatterbox. Others, who have less manners, have said I talk too much. Those who know me well say I am a great storyteller.

I am honest. If you don't like that, I am not for you.

I love to read and I love books.

Stupidity is unattractive. Feining stupidity is nearly unforgivable.

I'm familycentric and a momma's girl.

I like to see interesting movies and watch LOTS of cartoons.

I dig video games, especially Capcom V SNK2 and Mortal Kombat.

I LOVE Hello Kitty.

I love vampires and werewolves and other elements/folk of the supernatural persuasion.

I love foreign films and NETFLIX is one of my best friends.

Zombies terrify me... but I still keep coming back for more...

I am affectionate. Like, very.

I am a closeted academic.

My Interests

Karaoke, Women's Studies, video games, reading, sex (learning about it... though I guess having it is pretty fun too...) writing, dancing, movies/film, coloring books, vampires, tattoing and piercing, lycanthropes, fairies and many other assorted mythological and fantastic creatures, literature, comic books, African American studies, board games, affection, food, international subcultures, learning new things, trying new things, sewing/DIY, Hello Kitty, writing/reading erotica, burlesque, make up, spoken word

I'd like to meet:

Eccentrics.
Intellectuals that aren't stuck on themselves.
People who appreciate eloquence.
People who love to read.
People into the arts.
People with outrageous imaginations.
People who dig affection.
Librarians.
Feminists or those who are pro-equality.
People who aren't afraid of strong, opinionated, intelligent, sexual women.
Strong, opinionated, intelligent, sexual, creative men and women.

Maybe you :)
