About Me


patron saint of secrets.

"ordinary life does not interest me. i seek only the high moments. i am in accord with the surrealists, searching for the marvelous..." ~ Anais Nin

"Hanging out with you is like being in a David Lynch movie."
~Matt

sometimes i feel like a character in a novel and not a real person. that my life is a story someone's reading and not a real life.

maybe when they finish the book i'll cease to exist?

i took the road less traveled...
