Things that make me purrr.....sand, balls of yarn, shiny things, trial running, snowboarding, hiking, camping, traveling abroad, National Parks (deserts rock), SIN CITY, bar hopping, costume hunting, painting in my underwear, kittens, watching my dog run (aka my little pony), mountain biking, tattoos, riding around in cars with boys, live music, festivals (music & art related), and boys with nice hair & tattoos. Can't deny it, can't control it...I have a passion for the arts (all shapes, forms, and mediums).
social change.....si se puede projects in the world that affect the human RACE, our environment, and the quality of life of children.

meeps that have passion, conviction, a silly side, a philosophical side, a tattooed side..lol,those that can stare truth in the eye & buy her a drink.
i dig musicians for their admiring conviction to tell the story of what they see/feel. I refuse to be a band groupie. share with me your passion, your story, your fears, your dreams, and you'll have a kitten in your pocket. The exchange of musicians and visiual arts is intoxicating, make sure you can handle your liquor & conversation.
LIVE MUSIC...punk, rockabilly, alternative, indy, spanish alternative, jazz, psychobilly, folk, classical, ambient, reggae, and blues... music is such a cross-pollination of influences, so try to keep an open ear. With music goes a great drink or maybe just the great drink!..

"Here is to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes, the ones who see things differently.
They are not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo.
You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. But the only thing you can't do is ignore them, because they change things, they push the human race forward.
and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, ARE the ones who do."
THINK DIFFERENT!!!
