"Space and light and order.
Those are the things that men need
Just as much as they need bread or a place to sleep."
—Le Corbusier
"I'm an angel bored liked hell, And you're a devil meaning well."
Someone who is not afraid to give a good spanking!
Someone who knows what they want, knows how to ask for it.
Someone just as weird, just as smart and just as insatiable as I am.
Those who see the world through the lens of a camera.
Those who find beauty in cracked pavement, locked doors and clean lines.
Like-minded souls into music, creative endeavors, thoughtful conversation, peaceful disagreements and open minded experiments.
Those who appreciate mid-century modern furniture, architecture and design.
Those who are not afraid to live life and learn, be gratuitous at the right moment and go to art openings to look at the art - not to be “seen.â€
Those who appreciate all that is liberal and unique, original...
Those who get my odd perspectives, quirky desires and sarcastic jokes...
Someone who needs a partner in crime, a collaborator... Because I sure do...
And maybe someone who'd like to teach me to swim... and then swim with me in the ocean...
I listen to everything. Music is truly the soundtrack to just about everything I do - like driving or kissing. I especially enjoy experimental stuff and the eighties (I am a victim of my age, sorry.) Oh, that, and I used to like the "goth-y" stuff too.
