About Me


I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !
Basically I'm a work in progress. Feminist, Gemini dog lover who gets random anxiety and then all of sudden feels the clarity. Hippie at heart. Riot grrrl in mind. Non-smoker who loves smoking rolled ciggs. Can't figure out what the heck to do in life as a "career." What can I say, I'm totally a Gemini - two personalities inhibit me from making decisions easily, love and hate all in the same moment, cry while laughing, laugh while crying and am a cynical optimist. In all honesty, I'm a very positive, upbeat, vibrant womon and am comfortable being myself and engaging with others. "They say, 'cut your clits and shave your pits, and cover your tits!' We say- bullshit." - Alix Olson----- “Living as a woman in a sexist world is to live in constant danger and fear via venomous words and vicious glances. Every woman knows this perpetual fear as deeply as she knows the taste of her own saliva. Men only taste this fear when they are imprisoned. Only then do they experience the curse of being sexual prey for 24 hours of every day. Only then do they know how every lewd glare can render them naked. Only then do they know the sexual harassment that women endure daily. The world is a prison for women. We are all sentenced to consecutive lives of misogyny without parole.” — Alicia Banks in her eulogy to Sakia GunnThis is what my friends and I do for fun. Photo by Maro.

My Interests

listening/seeing music, writing, breathing spring air, laughing until i pee, napping with the windows open on a nice day, slam poetry, bathing in rivers, making music with friends around a fire at night, kissing my pup's face and having her kiss mine, mr. grey, sleeping ALOT (do i have an iron deficiency?), bloody marys at any time of the day, camping, changing my hair every few months, not shaving, girls with shaved heads, tattoos, and who can rock like no other, alone time is always good, warmth, sun, shade, vw's, my old 1972 vw bus Wamba,

I'd like to meet:

If you can't distinguish between "your" and "you're," how will you ever please me intellectually/emotionally/sexually? I can't be attracted to or intrigued by you when you make such blatant errors---------------------- I want someone who lives and breathes for me while managing her own life at the same time.....Lloyd Dobler as a womon, people who intrigue me, make me laugh, hold me when i'm being a brat, someone who will follow me after I leave a room, someone who isn't afraid to push me to get my attention...in the immortal words of A.D. "I'm going to turn and walk away. You wait till I am far along. Then come and run and catch my arm, and say you'd die if I were gone. I want to hear you call my name. It's too easy just to say it soft. I don't like my language watered down. I don't like my edges rounded off."
