About Me

easy-going, not in a rush renaissance guy [and "a lesbian trapped in a man's body";)].... i need to get that round "tuit" and learn graphic design a la guerilla [and get back in touch with my inner artist in general] and 'praps look more and more into becoming an herbalist. the color green kicks ass and i dig on the little things in this thing called life. i can be found on a proverbial soapbox, shooting my fool head off about psychobabble, rhetoric, pinko-commie politics and other bullshit. yes, "correct-handed" AND minded. these days i am stoked on new beginnings. sometimes i'm so Norcal that it hurts;) when it's at all appropriate, i like to let a good groove take over and shake what my momma gave me.... also, i bob my head strongly to jams in my ride [pushing the limits of my stock system] the way people who spend hella money on their subs and shit should [but look hella bored instead ~ what's up with that!? if you spend thousands of ducats on your sound system, you should be looking like you're having a grand old time. did you spend all that money just to play mating calls to moose and manatees? come on, now....]. ............................................................ ............................................................ .....HOW TO MAKE A chris: start by filling a pint glass with humor cubes. in a shaker, combine an ounce and a half of kindness and friendliness, an ounce each of thoughtfulness, humbleness and patience, a 3/4 ounce of curiosity, a 1/2 ounce of wisdom, a packet of talent and a 1/4 ounce of randomness and shake well. strain the contents onto the glass of humor cubes and float a 1/4 ounce of pessimism and outrage from injustice from the world. float a 1/2 ounce of energy and zaniness and ignite. after the flame is blown out, garnish with a trust twist and a sprig of confidence.................................
You are Fluffy Mackerel Pudding!! You somehow
manage to combine seafood and dessert into your
wonderfully fluffy world. We should all be as
tolerant of New Taste Sensations. And of
big-yolked eggs.
