About Me

I found my soulmate, I love my friends, I love that my friends made me like beer and bars; I will never ever leave Fells Point. My heart and soul belong to the sixties; no better music or art has ever been produced. I love to laugh; I have been told that I am a whore for anything funny. I am a nerd; my desk at work is littered with Star Wars toys, mechanical robots, and celebrity pictures. I WILL leave the bar to watch The Office or Top Chef.
I have the best job ever working for the Federal Government. It's ridiculously stress-free which leaves me tons of time to be creative and socialize. I cook (mediterranean); I decorate (midcentury modern-Eames, Saarinen, Noguchi); I shop (Macy's, Banana Republic, Bebe); and I love fashion (MICHAEL KORS, BCBG, Calvin Klein, INC, Pucci, PRADA, Lanvin, YSL, Chanel).
However, I am friends with more guys than girls; that's the way it's always been. Most girls can't handle me because I will not deal with bullshit and/or drama. I am not a girly-girl even though I dress that way. I can out-curse or out-belch ANYONE. Challenge me.
I don't waste time. I am trying to be happy. I've been through more than most people can possibly imagine and I have come out the other side 100% successful. I am undeniably proud of myself and if you have an issue with that, bring it. And if you hurt somebody I love, I WILL have to cut a bitch. Oh yeah, I don't want kids. Ever. No I will not change my mind, so stop asking me!! Myspace Contact Tables

My Blog
