About Me


///.a work ethic & an attitude of gratitude.. that's pretty much how i survive///. **update in progress** There are some exciting things in the works.. that's all i'm saying for now,,
Life is beautiful. *slurp me*
i like moss, mushrooms, vines, and tall trees... they seem to give a place a certain air of tranquillity - and wisdom. perhaps Strangely, i feel the same way about URBAN DECAY - i trust it. it speaks true somehow. it's only remaining glamour is that which has stood the test of time ~ {or been *painfully*, carefully restored & maintained!}
recent events in my life have conspired to try & cure me of both my vanity and pride. Perhaps without them my art (music, etc) & appreciation of the world outside will evolve ~ bla whatever.
i am a creature of the highway right now being that i travel almost 150 miles round trip twice or more each week to practice & perform with some obviously very special people... for this reason my own musical projects have been put on hold right now until, well basically forever, or at least until i sell my castle in Valhalla, and relocate closer to civilization...
...in addition to being a musician/solo artist in my own right, i'm also the new guitar player for Tempest's Harsh Reality! i'm tickled! and i'm on a mission to completely tear shit apart, leave it upside-down & backwards, in a pile, but with a silly satisfied grin on it's face regardless... so lick me. I'm also a generally decent human being, so feel free to message me, send me flowers, worship me, or ask me to dance. LOL - You can check out some of my own original music at: www.myspace.com/oozegoopmusic
i'm very playful... ;) sadly, hardly anyone ever wants to play :( i suppose.. we really don't have the time for that, now do we... this i understand. But geeeezzz... when we DO get some time!!....:)~
i'm "highly adaptable", i'll admit.. i'm a bit of a shapeshifter, and for this i make no apology - my true nature can hardly (cannot?) be expressed within the limits of one mortal frame. to my critics: *MUuAaHhhh* XOXOX hahahaa! *smirks* - and i will continue to blow kisses to both friends and enemies alike...
i've also been WHO I AM for a very... long time.... i'm moody & demand having many "options".
i'm a "sWitCh"... ChAos FlOws fOrEvEr frEE! in reAl LifE, in fAnTaSy-sEx-wOrK, etc. - in SickNess & in hELL - wHatEvEr - i cOnStaNtly aLterNAte BetwEEn tAking CHarGe, fOllOwiNg AlOng, and/or Just playing Dumb - i dunno? Does that make me PaSSivE/AGGressIvE?

My Interests

avid reader, Industrial & Funk & Slam dance enthusiast, Guitar Player, song writer/singer/producer/engineer, Post-Metalhead/Thrash Geek, aspiring programmer who really knows nothing, balls deep into some fantasy, intensity, aspiring writer with nothing really to write about, also enjoy bashing on my drum set, and spankings - show me YOUR world!

I'd like to meet:

FUN OPEN-MINDED PPL!! ;)p~, MAGICAL CREATURES, & OTHER ROCK N' ROLL IDIOTS!! :)
excitement & pleasure, intellectual stimulation, dancers & painters, Bass Players & Drummers, friends, angels & demons, Doms & Subs, goths & geeks, hippies & freaks, singers, poets & muses, open minds & cleverness, the best of what life in this realm has to offer - and NOW!

Apparently my LAZYNESS is only overshadowed by my VANITY...
