I am here for Friends

About Me

English girl living in Seattle since 2000. Devotee under vow, to the great Spiritual Master, Adi Da Samraj, (aka Da Free John). Happily married to Robert, I'm only here for friends. We live with Shara, my feline familiar. She rocks. I'm into weird things. Especially if they're religious or counterculture. It's irony that floats my boat, and a fascination with the bizarre depths of the human mind.. I have Humour...

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Some I've already met. Does that count? Adi Da Samraj, Osho Rajneesh, Buddha, Mother Meera, Mother Amma, Ozzy Osbourne, Johnny Depp, Aliester Crowley, Gandhi, Swami Yogananda, John Lennon, Bob Dylan, Tim Leary, Abbie Hoffman, Anton LaVey, Mick Jagger, Aldous Huxley, Carl McCoy, Jim Morrison, Robert Plant, Robert Anton Wilson, Alex Grey, David Lynch, Dante Rossetti, Nicholas Roerich, Jesus, Marilyn Manson, Charlie Manson, Socrates, Diogenes. But not the Pillsbury Dough Boy. He scares me. So do clowns. Also all my MySpace friends... and being as some of you live in Seattle, come on over!
