Miss I

the lunatics have taken over the asylum!

About Me

"What doesn't kill us only makes us STRANGER." i have five tattoos and want to get one more (yeah, right). i am a fan of indie flicks, diners w/ rude waitresses, dive bars, art exhibits, live bands that have a good horn section, the freak show on venice beach, cats, slurpees, curly fries, exploring the city w/ my camera in tow, spontaneous dancing, cartoons, harassing the scientologists along hollywood blvd. and black and white photography. i dislike capital letters (i think they make the others feel bad), dairy products, the religious right, clowns, men who wear sunglasses in a bar, people who can't seem to use their turn signals and reality television. i am an aspiring photographer (have gone back to school to pursue a dream) who also must work as a corporate whore to pay the bills. i want to learn how to knit and roller skate - not at the same time. i want to drive across the states and take photos of rest stop bathrooms and churches. i want to take over the world using weasels and yams. crazy? you bet i am! interested?

My Interests

MY MAN, black and white photography, indie and foreign films, live theatre, dive bars, local bands, art galleries, browsing bookstores, music (all genres), comic books (Lenore, Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, Squee, Strangers in Paradise), erotica, Hollywood, Pasadena, Downtown L.A., Little Tokyo, China Town, Indie 103.1, cartoons

I'd like to meet:

noctural creatures - even though my man thinks it's funny when i fall asleep before 11pm , artists, models, people who march to the beat of a very different drummer, those that can appreciate sarcasm, those that have an evil mind and a wicked smile. OH AND BY THE WAY...I AM NOT A DOM SO PLEASE STOP SENDING ME EMAILS, ASKING TO SERVE ME. I DON'T DO THAT. thank you. another side note...i'm not interested in your band, your comedy or your future career in porn. those who attempt to add me on as their "friend" will be eliminated, immediately. just fair warning.
