Emily aka Emicide L. Maniac

About Me

I like hugs. I hate shady people (amazingly enough, no seriously... I REALLY DON'T LIKE SHADY PEOPLE!). Im too curious for my own good. Im a bit insane. I like people who dont fit stereotypes. I like doing whatever the hell I want to, whenever I want to. I love my job. I like people who challenge me. I don't have a "scene". I try hard not to take life too seriously. Im not a nice person, but I'm a good person. I misplaced my short term memory somewhere. I tend to love the wrong people for the right reasons. I collect postcards. I would be lost without my sticky notes. I like being unpredictable (in any way you can imagine). Great White Sharks are the most adorable animal I've ever seen and one day I want to swim with them. I love roller derby. I am brutally honest, if I care about you... otherwise, I can bullshit with the best of em. I love people who are brutally honest with me and have little respect for people who aren't (yeah, I'm talking to you, douche-A). I have commitment problems, a fear of failure and abandonment issues. I'm smarter than you think. I've seen more shit in my life than you'll ever know. I really like sex, but have never had a "one night stand" with someone I didn't know. I have no tatoos, but I have a deep love for them. I'm racist, sexist, and homophobic. I'm usually being a smart ass. I don't deal well with people who talk shit about my family. My insides dont match my outsides. I love spiders and snakes. I think dragonflies are good luck charms. I'll blow you if you just read all this. ;)
I was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease in May 2005. So far, I've been in remission since August 2006 after losing many pounds and friends and boyfriends. But I gained the weight back, made a lot of new friends who support all my Crohn's fundraisers, and until I find a guy who's worth a damn, I won't even bother. Speaking of fundraisers... if you'd like to know how you can support the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation (and me), shoot me a message for info on sponsoring events or how you can make a donation.

My Interests

Video games, movies, making an ass of myself, sports (watching -not playing- football, basketball, hockey & baseball), books, knives, drinking, working, dancing, Legos, working, drinking some more, television when I get a chance, buying useless shit at Target, eating, computers, music, staying at home, going out, collecting postcards, cooking, buying boots that I never end up wearing, learning random medical things that I'll never have a use for, dead people, people different from myself, tacky colored underwear from Victoria's Secret, Denver Roller Dolls, comic books, bizarre eyeshadows, knee high socks, learning & observing, artistic photographs of women... too many things to name

I'd like to meet:

"I want someone who'll stand by me through all the trouble I wouldn't have had if I'd stayed single."
Not really... in all seriousness, I'd like to meet homicidal maniacs like myself. And people who know the differences between your and you're, there and their and they're... you know, little things that show you're not an idiot.
And chicks who beat bitches up...
