I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Been around in one form or another for about 15 billion years.
I had to be born because comfortable as it is, the womb can become very constricting after a time.
I'm enjoying this incarnation very much thank you and have some lovely family to support me on the journey.
I enjoy conversing with sentient beings everywhere.
Respect the Lowerarchy!

My Interests

language, science, music, drama, dance and laughter

I'd like to meet:

everyone,
if there's time,
which,
of course,
there is
