I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I am little and kind of bendy. I read A LOT. I enjoy getting physical exercise in the form of walking, swimming, and beating the crap out of inanimate objects. I relish the chance to learn. I am currently attending Montgomery College and am pursuing a career in nursing. I am open to most things. My mouth gets me into trouble sometimes. I like to write. I love going on road trips for no express purpose. I am good to have around in a health related crisis. I believe that organized religion is a plague on the earth and that it is based on brutality, ignorance, subserviance, avarice, and slavery. I like cheese.

The needle punctures skin. Over and over again it is plunged into flesh, leaving behind a trail in black ink. Tiny dots of blood well up from my pores. There is nothing quite like a baptism in ink. I ...

The storm is behind us now

Shiver

I set out from the driveway. I note the washed out colors of gray that stain the sky. Similar, I feel, to the stains on my heart. The wind whips past me, pausing briefly to dance with my hair. Winter ...
