music, people, books, caffeine, nicotine, beer, driving, conversation, sushi, tattoos, revolution, recording, playing shows, seeing shows, feedback, dissonance, goofing around, the comfort and safety of your own bed and oh yeah, gin and tonics
I'd like to meet:
I want to meet Sofia Coppola and have a long torrid affair with her (based on recent movies, not GF3). Past that fantasy, I'm up for meeting anyone who's interesting and can keep up with me and my requiste caffeine habit. I can tell you who I don't want to meet, that gets easier everyday. I don't want to meet anyone who's profile says they like "all types of music except country" and not just because I like some country (Steve Earle, Johnny Cash, Patsy Cline, Uncle Tupelo, etc) but because that says either music's not important to you or you can't even name your 10 favorite artists. If music's not important to you, eh, that's fine but you would hate to be stuck in a conversation with me. And no, I don't want to be friends with your damn mallcore band. Take your eyeliner and Schecter guitars and vamoose. Ok, sorry that came off as mean but cripes, it's the internet, there's so much stuff on here I couldn't begin to care about. Oh, ok, I'd just like to meet a really fun, positive girl who digs cool music and is kind of zany (yeah, i just said "zany" like Blossom or something) but who isn't completely mental and with more issues than National Geographic. Is that too much too ask? Sorry but the whole "saving the wounded puppy" thing stops now. Life is too short for negativity and drama!
