I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Hello, you've reached the winter of our discontent.
My name is Rachel.
Born & raised, in St. Louis, MO.
I'm a colorful person... BUT STILL BLACK, LOLLL.
You want to know about me?
My favorite things are traveling and spontaneity.
... but, I am always changing my mind.
First off, I fucking hate being suckered into small talk-- I'm fine, you're fine, if we cared we'd already know. I'd rather spoon my eyes out than be approached with "OMG HOW R U?" ...
More? Stop begging.
If you're over 40, you should know ahead of time that you are really creepy. I mean, I know I'm sexy but I that doesn't mean I want your nuts! Haha!
I do, however, really want a pug. Best. Dog. Ever.
I'm six feet tall & I'm fucking horrible at basketball!
I like to people-watch; you all amuse me.
I'm sick of the women in this culture obsessing over their weight instead of their health or intelligence.
I love to laugh.
Life is short, make fun of it!
And each other.

My Interests

Activism, body modifications, cinematography, discovering music, fat+, the gays, laughing to tears, learning, pugs, reading, spoken word, stand-up comedy, swingin' on the playground, talking birds, traveling, unnecessarily alphabetizing things, writing.

I'd like to meet:

Someone with substance, please.

P.S. -- Don't add me to improve your numbers. Or if you're an idiot (subjective!). If I added you, I know you from somewhere and/or something about you intrigues me. Take that as you will. And no, I won't add your band.
