I am here for Friends

About Me

so what about me? read on, look at the pictures & friends. kids are cute - from afar. I don't drink. I don't eat seafood, especially that which requires dismembering of the carcass. my shopping cart can simultaneously contain both real and fake bacon. I absolutely loathe chick flicks. I miss the 90s(!). I used to do hair and still do imaginary makeovers on people when I'm out in public. I like to wear black (perhaps a throwback to my hairstyling days)? I love broccoli. I like both thin crust and deep dish pizza. I love the weather here in the Northwest, but east coast people rock.

..

I'd like to meet:



Music:

rock, hip-hop, electronic, all kinds except no country or opera or stupid stuff. specifically, here are a few - Pearl Jam, Tribe Called Quest, Duran Duran, Gus Gus, AC/DC, B-52s, Soundgarden, Prince, Nirvana, Green Day, lots more.ah, the 80s...

Movies:

movies are cool...especially independent ones, though I like all kinds including horror, drama, comedy, just anything weird, or whatever is on.

Television:

all of the CSIs, all of the Law & Orders, Ghost Whisperer, Lost, Prison Break, Nip/Tuck, What Not To Wear, Cartoon Network, Cold Case, Criminal Minds, cooking shows, Cash Cab, Project Runway, BBC America, Strangers With Candy, Family Guy, Big Cat Diary, Top Chef, documentaries, many more!

Books:

Stephen King, Edgar Allan Poe, Ann Rule, went through an Anne Rice phase, used to love reading Shakespeare. at one time I wrote poetry but that's out of my system. I don't read much these days, truthfully, because there's just not time and when I do, I fall asleep after about 5 pages no matter how great the book may be. due to my incredibly short attention span, I mostly read magazines and cookbooks.

Heroes:

no. that's just silly.

the roast chicken conundrum

um, okay, this shouldn't be such a mystery, but for the life of me I cannot roast a chicken or whole bone-in, skin-on chicken breast.  when they do it on cooking shows, it comes out all brown wit...

the worst and best steaks ever!

before I write anything else, I have to get this off my chest.  apparently - as I've gotten older, and after a more-than-2-year period where I ate nothing but my own home-made, vegan, real, un-pr...

new stuff

okay so here's a pic of the glasses I ordered yesterday, against my will.  I like the glasses, I'm just against the idea of having to wear them.  below that is the Juicy Couture bag I "accid...

why is Facebook so dumb?

okay, um, so everyone's talking about Facebook like it's the "more mature" version of myspace and that I'm stupid for having a profile here because it's only for 12-year-olds.  alrighty.  so...
