The world will never be the same... and you're to blame...

About Me

.. New Republican slogan on FunnyOrDie.com ..

The name's Meg.

I pick my scabs, pick my nose, and very carefully pick my friends.

I am the spelling police but I overuse commas like it's a disease.

I am a tree-hugging, dirt-worshipping hippie.

I will, undoubtedly, nag at you about recycling or purchasing "greener" products.

Both of my cats have middle-names derived from significant pop-culture TV stars.

I am addicted to interior design, dance contest, and fashion/modeling reality TV.

I have two imaginary boyfriends: Anderson Cooper and Jon Stewart.

I am one of Kathy Griffin's biggest fans.

I read non-fiction only: political/social issues and memoirs/biographies.

I am a neurotic, babbling mess of sarcastic wit and boring antecdotes.

Welcome to my world of magic.

My Interests

Activism
Alternative Energies
Art
Buddhism

Hinduism

Philosophy
Politics
