music, writing, reading,loving on my babies(the feline variety-lost puppy in the "divorce"),cursing out loud on my treadmill,ashtanga yoga,making out with someone who can kiss, running with scissors(sometimes but rarely hoping I trip), watching modern dance,yelling back at the news, cooking,throwing foam tv bricks at the news,prattling on incessantly in my blogs, sashimi, artichokes, spontaneous combustion,gay boys with great hair products, my real friends, picture taking,playing the cloud game, discovering art forms that are new to me, brigading, loyalty...and avoiding love like the plague...seriously I hear from a reliable source you can catch cooties! I used to believe in true love now I wonder if we are only designed to have a true love for different cycles of our life. I have always been the faithful one-the loyal one and look where it landed me...or I could simply still be bitter and a bit broken from love's last carnival ride. whatever.
I would love to meet people who are creative, real, a happy mess, or even just plain happy,people who are open-minded and compassionate, intelligent and silly, people who like to laugh and to play(but not head games), people who understand that being attentive to oneself first is not really a selfish act so much as a selfless one - we can't be present for others if we are not present with ourselves first, people who are not afraid to leap -without nets, but most importantly people who are true to themselves even if that journey is not an easy one..."to thine own self be true"
