About Me


Hey kiddies!! First and foremost: as interesting as I may be sometimes, I don't always accept friend requests from people I don't know personally. In fact, I almost NEVER accept random friend requests. And if your profile is set to private, forget it--sorry. At least send me a quick message telling me how you found my profile in the first place.... then at least I know we may have something in common!

Your Theme Song is Back in Black by AC/DC
"Back in black, I hit the sack,
I've been too long, I'm glad to be back"
Things sometimes get really crazy for you, and sometimes you have to get away from all the chaos.
but each time you stage your comeback, it's even better than the last! What's Your Theme Song?

My favorite word is fucker.


Usually when I try to write things on Myspace I kind of black out and suddenly, in all my good intentions of something brilliant, I've written nothing, saved it and signed off. I guess you could say I get bored easily. When I take personality tests they tell me I'm introverted, but people tell me I'm extroverted. Most of the time, when I am feeling something (anything) there's a song that goes with it and I want to make sure I hear it. Music is very much a part of my life and quite often I'll let you know exactly what I'm singing in my head. Even if it's Veggie Tales. Larry rocks.
I LOVE Avatar, geek TV, and Seinfeld and reference them often in conversation. As well as random useless information, hooping experiences, bad jokes, good movies, and the elf in my head. Watch out--he'll make faces at you. Actually, I make faces a lot.
I am completely obsessed with food. To a point where it's probably unhealthy. Most of my day is spent either eating food, thinking about what/when/where I'm going to eat next, cooking for myself, or giving food to someone else. Which I enjoy almost as much as eating it myself.
I'm a packrat.
I hate answering the phone. I'll talk with my mom for a long time, but I generally hate being on the phone.
I love animals and for that reason I was vegetarian for a while, but now I just eat pretty much whatever. But I've definitely cut down on the animal yummies.
I'm an idealist and an optimist almost to a fault. Almost. I try to give everyone the benefit of a doubt, and through this mess we call "civilization" I truely believe that people are inherently good. And extremely amusing animals. I love figuring out people. I love philosophy. I love existentialism. I love learning.
I play with my makeup whenever I get a chance and one of my favorite things is freshly applied eye makeup. I have an obsession with fake lashes.
My interests are hugely diverse and range from artistic and creative activities like music, poetry, drawing, and sculpture, to more active things like hooping, tai chi and martial arts, climbing, water sports, etc. When I was a kid I wanted to be a doctor, veterinarian, paleontologist, artist, swimmer, pilot, singer, astronaut, cryptozoologist, writer, record producer, photo journalist and a fashion designer. Oddly enough, I never gave any thought to being a chef....
For the most part I dislike, or am indifferent to the majority of pop culture. I've never watched an episode of Saturday Night Live, the Real World, Sex and the City, American Idol, The Sopranos, Spongebob Squarepants, Survivor, Hell's Kitchen, et cetera, et cetera. I generally hate Top 40 music, most rap and r&b and country. I like Urban Outfitters but I've never bought anything there. I've never been inside an Abercrombie and Fitch. I don't read the cheap paperback novels that you can buy at Wal*Mart.... you get the idea. But I do love me some Starbucks every now and then. Grande decaf skim latte or a soy vanilla creme (hold the whip cream) with a sprinkle of nutmeg. Yummyliscious! Mmmmmm.... I think it's time for me to get something to eat....
Made with the MyTheme myspace editor and a little Myspace smarts, mother fucker!
Hey the best way to get in touch with me is to text me(cell)--I'm most likely to answer that way. You're only allowed to do it if you already have my number....... (Whaddaya, stupid?? I'm not posting my cell phone number on MySpace!)
