Portland Bound

Nothing's Impossible. All it takes is Dedication and Patience.

About Me

Proud to be a Transgendered Woman. I am living my life to the fullest and loving every single minute of it.

My Interests

My interests are friends and karaoke! Above all, I love tatoos, music, books, comic books and orgasms. My favorite tv show is The OC. My favorite movie of all time would have to be either The Princess Bride or As Good As It Gets. I don't know if that makes me sappy, but fuck it. I love swearing and bad language. I just feel like I get the point across a whole lot more with it. I love creepy carnival music, pear flavored jelly belly jelly beans, birthday cakes with candles so I can blow them out, and gummy plums. Favorite candy of all time though, is gummy bears :) I don't know why, and maybe this is a little morbid, but I really like dried dead red roses. Also, my favorite candy of ALL TIME is California Fruits Starbursts!!! Those things fucking rule!!! My favorite book of all time is a toss-up between Smoke & Mirrors by Neil Gaiman & Galatea in 2-d by Aaron Allston. They are both really great. Out of the music I love, well, I have thought about it and have come to the conclusion that I am a butt rocker at heart and I feel that a good buttrock song is elevated from good to greatness when the lead singer yells out "Guitar!" and then the other guy goes into a screaching kick ass solo. I would have to say that my favorite band of all time is . . . AC/DC!!! No one kicks ass more then they do! I also really love jazz, whether it be Miles Davis, Loius Prima or Diana Krall. I really think Diana Krall has the sexiest voice in all of jazz right now. She's pretty hot also, too bad it sucks that she married Elvis Costello. My favorite comic books include: Human Target, The Losers, 100 Bullets, The Books of Magick: Life During Wartime, now that's an excellent comic.
