it's not that serious, but you should be scared.

About Me

I write and I sleep and I eat and I write and I shower and I exercise and I hate this administration and I love sushi and I have too much music and too many ideas and a strange sense of humor and don't talk unless I have something to say and most of the time know what I'm doing and I know how to rock a woman's world like the hair bands used to do and I really hate all the hair bands and yes I'm not saying all there is to say and of course I'm pursuing my dreams and maybe I'll find someone who gets me and maybe I won't and I'll remain hopeful and I've broken my hand and my wrist on two separate occasions and I think this is getting a little long and right now there's a really good song on the radio and I've grown accustomed to incomplete thoughts and I feel like our culture's materialism has gotten out of control and here I am living in one of the country's capitals for it and half the time this city drives me crazy and the other half there's nowhere else I'd rather be and I usually don't communicate in such long run-on sentences and someone just called so I lost my train of though and will just end it there for now.

My Interests

Music, Movies, Reading books and good magazines (Adbusters for example), Cooking, Yoga, Dive bars, Biking...The list goes on. I'm basically interested in anything out of the ordinary or bizarre that i've never heard of. For example, I just saw a piece on KCET about river blindness in Africa. Parasites enter people's bloodstream, cause constant itching, leading many of them to kill themselves, and eventually get into the eyes where they cause scarring and blindness. It is seriously fucked up.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who has some spark of creativity and humor. People who hate the president - i know that's a tall order. A sugar mama if possible, but for some reason they're not as prevalent as i'd like. someone who can handle my awesomeness without being completely overwhelmed. seriously, for now i'll say some cool people to hang out with. you'll know who you are. hopefully.Just someone to rock my fuckin world, and I can rock their world, and it'll be like a big rock opera, but without people dying all over the place. it could happen.
