About Me

This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? Go get one!
My Life is one of those "You had to be there" Jokes.
"I've sent in my application to the Real World. So I'm hoping to hear back from that. I'm putting a lot of my eggs into that basket, the MTV basket. I'm also thinking about getting a gun, and dealing crack. Being a crack dealer. Not like a mean crack dealer, but like... like a nice one. Kinda friendly like, "hey, what's up guys? Want some crack?" I'm just waiting on those two things to flesh themselves out."
I bartend & serve at , I learn through music, movies, & books b/c they're expressions of others. I love psychology. I will write a book before i die. There is always something going on in my head, & I do not fall for bullshit. Guy or Girl, I could give two shits what you have, or are worth- I am NOT materialistic * I may be indecisive, but once I decide, there is no turning back. I'm a dog person [vs cats] & I am an open bar activist...lol, every wedding should have one. I am always down for tailgating & picnics & hunting/fishing. Any guy who talks shit about beer pong to me & my girls...gets to find out how it feels to be beaten by one. I dislike it when people are completely shut off to other ppl's opinions & ideas only b/c it's 'different' than theirs...that's about as cool as AIDS...& AIDS aren't so cool.

"I'm gettin' hard on myself, sittin' in my easy chair" - White Sripes
"I apologize to you if I don't seem real eager to jump into a forced awkward intimate situation that people like to call 'dating'. I don't like the feeling. You're sitting there, you're wondering do I have food on my face, am I eating, am I talking too much, are they talking enough, am I interested, I'm not really interested, should I play like I'm interested but I'm not that interested but I think she might be interested but do I want to be interested but now she's not interested? So all of the sudden I'm starting to get interested... And when am I supposed to kiss her? Do I have to wait for the door cause then it's awkward, it's like well goodnight. Do you do like that ass-out hug? Where your like, you hug each other like this and your ass sticks out cause you're trying not to get too close or do you just go right in and kiss them on the lips or don't kiss them at all? It's very difficult trying to read the situation. And all the while you're just really wondering are we gonna get hopped up enough to make some bad decisions? Perhaps play a little game called 'just the tip'. Just for a second, just to see how it feels. Or, ouch, ouch you're on my hair." -Vince Vaughn, Wedding Crashers

I'd like to meet:

"The most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself." -- Carrie Bradshaw

anyone who is loyal, honest, sincere, funny, intelligent, athletic, open-minded, respectful, genuine, basically anyone with inspiring ambition

You Are a "Don't Tread On Me" Libertarian
You distrust the government, are fiercely independent, and don't belong in either party.
Religion and politics should never mix, in your opinion... and you feel opressed by both.
You don't want the government to cramp your self made style. Or anyone else's for that matter.
You're proud to say that you're pro-choice on absolutely everything! What's Your Political Persuasion?

"Nobody's right, if everybody's wrong"

"Young men go to war. Sometimes because they have to, sometimes because they want to. Always, they feel they are supposed to. This comes from the sad, layered stories of life, which over the centuries have seen courage confused with picking up arms, and cowardice confused with laying them down." (p. 57 The Five People You Meet In Heaven)

the best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word,and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.

Because woman's work is never done and is underpaid or unpaid or boring or repetitious and we're the first to get fired and what we look like is more important than what we do and if we get raped it's our fault and if we get beaten we must have provoked it and if we raise our voices we're nagging bitches and if we enjoy sex we're nymphos and if we don't we're frigid and if we love women it's because we can't get a "real" man and if we ask our doctor too many questions we're neurotic and/or pushy and if we expect childcare we're selfish and if we stand up for our rights we're aggressive and "unfeminine" and if we don't we're typical weak females and if we want to get married we're out to trap a man and if we don't we're unnatural and because we still can't get an adequate safe contraceptive but men can walk on the moon and if we can't cope or don't want a pregnancy we're made to feel guilty about abortion and... for lots and lots of other reasons we are part of the women's liberation movement.
"You were not taken from his feet, to be under him nor were you taken from his head to be above him. You were taken from his side to stand beside him and be held close to his side."
