About Me


my biggest pet peeve right now is shitty grammar... i hate bad grammar like i hate phil collins... i'm sick of people talking what they think is "ghetto" to me because i'm a black girl... fuck you... i'm probably smarter than you are... we don't all talk like that and spell phonetically... anyone who pulls that with me is getting an italian leather size 10 pump firmly and painfully introduced to their ass and jaw...
if you wanna know what's really going on in my head you can read my blog, and if you have a problem with anything i have to say you can just fuck off... but i mean that in the nicest way possible...

My Interests

makeup artistry... revenge... glamour... tequila... vintage pinups... 70's blaxploitation films... quiet time... studio time... flashy accessories... record shopping... maker's mark... sci-fi/horror... performance art... good jukeboxes... live music... salma hayek's assets... good food... unconventionally sexy people... rare and beautiful shoes... finding excuses to wear false eyelashes... bikini girls with machine guns... making music on computers and the old fashioned way... spending time with my sweet siblings... beating others at nerdy trivia games... making fun of condoleeza rice... getting down, just for the funk of it... getting up for the down stroke... did i already mention music???

I'd like to meet:

i'd like to meet a LOT of people... for instance, i think it would be really fun to play a game of Uno with bill murray and richard pryor... i'd like to meet somebody who could arrange that for me... someone who can drink me under the table (go ahead and try - i dare you)... someone who's secure in their own skin and knows exactly what they want... someone who can still make adult decisions at three in the morning after doing ten shots of patron... someone who wears glasses and likes instant oatmeal for breakfast... anyone who loves supporting the arts on a local and global scale... prince, bjork, grace jones, david bowie, your grandmother... and please don't fill my inbox with unintelligible bullshit...
