I go for the black velvet suit every time, baby

About Me

I'm absolutely unbearable, apparently. But I'm becoming a better person. Really. I am.

My Interests

Yes, I have them...sleeping, Small birds, mice, chicken, running in circles, beat literature, getting tangled up in wool, cool jazz, bamboozling officer Dibble, going to the Turkish Baths, going to the cinema..breeding a flock of radioactive vampire bats..hanging with the cats in Hoagies Alley....I dunno, French Toast?

I'd like to meet:

other werecats, people with dangerous theories, people with secret super powers of a fairly trite nature, people who are disturbingly and vociferously happy for no apparent reason, people who make soap, bad girls from Queens
