About Me


Turn Ons:Bookstores, strong coffee, hoppy beer, tattoos, fast skates, sarcasm, spur of the moment adventures, off-the-wall instruments (accordian, mandolin, washboard, harpsichord etc), any reason to dress up in ridiculous costumes, zombies ....

Turn Offs:

wimpy handshakes, angry drunks, whiners, low rise jeans paired with a thong, foods that are probably healthy but questionably edible like currants, water chestnuts, radishes, beets or anything that tastes like black licorice, bad fake boobs, ignorance and last but not least the jazz flute....
World traveler, life liver (ew, liver), photographer, beer drinker, graphic designer, student of life, motocycle rider?...driver?...ummm...operator?, chef, salsa dancer, serious coffee snob, kickballer extrodinaire, Kick Ass Roller Derby BI-YOTCH!
"...We are nothing more than the sum of our experiences..."

My Girls!!! The Emerald City Rollergirls!
Without Derby Refs...It's just an all skate.


Nothing will ever be attempted if all possible objections must first be overcome. -Samuel Johnson

It's said that when holding a civilized conversation it's quite black and white. There is a line that you do not cross when speaking of certain questionable subject matter. Let it go on record that I have no idea where that line is and everything is one giant grey area. It's often commented that the Olson sisters are not known for their tact. Uh, yeah... That's about right.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Random people who are cool, not lame. Cuz if they're lame, then they whine and get all depressed about it which will make them want to drink and because they're lame they will, of course, drink way too much, then they get all belligerent and annoying and then I have to bitch-slap them in front of a crowded bar and I don't like doing that, so no lame people.

It's Funny.....How I seem almost normal...

RIVERDANCE - or "kill me, kill me now"

I admit, my first thought after being told by Garrett that he'd scored free tickets to Riverdance was to politely say 'no thank you' then kick him square in the crotch thus taking him by surprise so t...

Ween-ies: Turn That Brown Upside Down....

I have a special affinity for musicians that make good use of less common instruments, change up the beat often and are quirky in both styling and subject matter. And there are few bands I've come acr...
