About Me

"What can I compare you to...a favorite pair of shoes? Maybe my bright red boots-if they had wings."i have an eclectic fabric collection... the tackier, the better. i dreamed of being a professional iceskater when i was young. i like old flasks. i like old flasks with gin in them. i spend my days working at maryood university as a graphic designer in the communications/marketing department and bartending on wednesdays at the bog, in downtown scranton. i hate bananas. FLANNEL- yes. love the sound of a great song playing quietly in a noisy bar. i miss my poppy. i want a horse. i am a proud aunt. love a slight dimming of the day. have feet like my dad and arms like my mom...have hands like a 12 year old boy. like to fall asleep to the corr's cd-home. there's nothing better than an afternoon nap on my couch. love gambling. enjoy blockbuster on-line. i have a weird fear of prosthetic things-that includes nails and boobs as well. love sketching the figure and photographing it. i drink wine while i clean. never went whale watching, but surely want to. i won the spelling bee competition in 8th grade because I spelled ballerina correctly. my dad is a carpenter, my mom, a prison gaurd-but used to be a nurse. i respect humility. enjoy listening to intelligent people. enjoy handwritten letters. enjoy misspellings. happy to see that things like the icecream man still exist in today's society. enjoy having a budweiser with my dad or a coffee with my mom. scenic rides through waymart. love going to the flea market on sundays. look up to good parents. can't wait to have my own garden. have begun writing a novel called PERSONAL BOOKMARKS- notes from a girl, and believe it to be my finest work of art so far. someday i would like to move to a big city for awhile just to see the country again with new eyes. and yes, i am a fatalist.I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
