Man Bites Man

About Me

I am five feet and two inches tall. I have been dying my hair black since the age of 15 when I decided to make myself who I am instead of following the rules and roles laid out for me. I hate flat shoes due to my Napoleonic complex and wear too much eye make-up which I never take off. I think people can get away with almost anything if they do it with soul, style, and PAZ-ZAZZ which is sadly a dying art form. I find it important to make the most of things without losing sight of responsibility to yourself and others.I am attracted to underground culture and dig things that are out of the ordinary. I like to hang out with highly creative beings with a good sense of humor, self-awareness, and that are jam-packed with personality. I have a strong aversion to ignorant people that take themselves too seriously.I am a little embarrassed of how complacent and self absorbed the people of my generation are. I would rather play bridge with old ladies with good hair-dos than be stuck with any self absorbed scenester who is text messaging while talking to you. I like a person that means it when they smile at you and makes some kind of attempt at a connection when dealing with others. I am sure I come off as a bit of a walking contradiction, but I make perfect sense to myself. I do my best to find a balance between staying true to myself and being a contributing member of society. The ways in which this manifests may seem peculiar, but I am whimsical by nature and plagued by internal conflicts. I love to perform, but not in front of people that don't get it. I want acknowledgement but not meaningless adoration. I strive for perfection, but love mistakes. I like attention but only when it is well-deserved. I want to wear Vintage Frederick's Of Hollywood clothes from the 70s but don't want anyone to look at me or talk to me about it. Blue Velvet is a work of supreme genius and Inland Empire is a piece of trash. I am habitual, yet embrace change and metamorphosis when the time is right.I am highly intuitive and am fascinated by the unknown. I dig fast cars, sleazy dives, rockenroll, pop culture, 70's punk, 60's garage, 60's French pop, deathrock, delta blues, surrealism, dada, happenings, foreign film, vampyre flicks, German Expressionism, Gothic Architecture, 60's fashion, taxidermy, Ancient Egypt, Medieval history, Weimar Republic, Esoterica, erotica, books, and my foxy boyfriend Apollo.
