About Me

Once upon a time there was a pint-sized so-co feminist and a larger-than-life humanist poet who got together and concieved a precious baby girl. This little wonder grew up believing in sunshine and rainbows, safe in the knowledge that the world was a beautiful, sunshiny place. This opinion was solidified when she discovered the most beautiful, sunshiny thing on earth- rock music. After a brief pre-pubescent stint jamming out to NKOTB and Jem and The Hollograms (I am NOT ashamed), the little girl discovered the truth: that rock and roll makes the world go 'round. She bought Nirvana's Nevermind CD with the money from her very first babysitting job, and life was never the same. So, thanks to the supportive influence of musically driven friends and family, her world remains one of sunshine and flowers. To hell with anyone who says different.
