About Me

online now icon
I'm a Bay Area native, born and raised.
The two words that best describe me are curious and dorky. I'm pretty down to earth and not into drama. I'd have to say I'm a "glass is half full" type of a gal. I try to see the positive in everything and just laugh if I can't.
I love all things vintage, such as music, movies, clothes, furniture, jewelry, etc....
I'm very greatful for the things I have, even if I sometimes take them for granted. I'm almost too independent and stubborn for my own good. I'm a total horror movie fan. Nothing compares to 60's to late 80's horror, in my opinion. I especially love zombies, but who doesn't? The horror now just isn't the same or as cheesy...gotta have the cheese with everything. I love indie anything, movies, music, magazines, etc..
I'm all for the little guy or underdog. I hate how giant corporations have and are taking over the world....it's scary. I have alot of respect for people who have the courage to be themselves no matter what society thinks or says of them. I can't stand any female over the age of 7 that refers to themselves as a princess!
I'am a total child of the 80's. I'm lucky I got to live through that, even if it makes me old now. The bay area had some great clubs back then, I miss those. I'm full of contradictions. I'm extremely adventures yet lazy. I like to be cool, but I' am such a dork. I' am social, yet shy. I talk tough, but am a wuss.
I was part of the Berkeley Mod scene of the late 80's and loved it. I miss those days, full of scooters, parties, music and stylin'. I'm still a Mod at heart...because Mods are Gods!
Here they all are in L.A. for a taping of It's Happening.... .. About 1993 I started getting into the 1940's, 1950's & Rockabilly. Yes, I was a "mocker".

Now I'm part of the working world....sigh. I don't think I could get through a full day of work without hearing from my homies. So drop me a line! Pa..pa..pa..pleeze!!

THE SIGN OF THE DOG *1922*1934*1946*1958*1970*1982*1994*2006
The Dog is a giving, compassionate personality. She offers kind words, support and advice to friends and family. She is a listener, always available to lend an ear or a shoulder to a friend in need. Often Dogs know more about their friends than their friends know about them or even themselves! Dogs are incredibly attentive, and easy to get along. They are supportive and calming and make exceptional friends. They are held in high regard by their friends and are loyal, honest friends. Money and status dont matter to the Dog. She is more concerned with the welfare of her family and friends and will do whatever it takes to help them out of a tight squeeze or a rough spot. They make loyal friends and companions.
(The characteristics of the Dog Sign are tempered by one of the five Chinese elements of Metal, Water, Wood, Fire and Earth overlaying a 5-year cycle of characteristics on the original 12-year cycle.) THE METAL DOG 1970
Metal Dogs have extremely high standards and expect a lot of themselves and of others. They are loyal and hold a strong outlook about the direction they want their life to take. They choose their friends and causes with care, as they do not plan to ever not support these people and things again. Once they have committed themselves, there is little to no turning back. They are bold, unafraid to disagree out loud about anything they feel is unjust or unfair. Metal Dogs are easily stressed if a plan does not go accordingly. They find it difficult to relax when there are things to be done.
