Graphic Designer, Photographer jack of all such similiar art trades. I'm Midwest easy-going without the bible belt or republican baggage.

My Interests

7.9 percent.... Oh interests not my interest rate.Many and sundry but most definately not illiterate sleaze on the inter-web looking for a hookup.I am not her fool!

I'd like to meet:



1.) It's an election year so people sad to see W's last term in office, need not apply... I don't understand your party. I've tried really I have. We've both been in the Ole USA for the last 8 years, now c'mon and level with me.

2.) I always need more smug, articulate friends who pick up a book once in a while, God willing to use it for more than a shim for their broken ikea coffeetable.

3.) Also welcome are dive-bar-fly types who aren't afraid to wear western shirts with pearl button snaps. Not so much into the painted on jeans and cowboy hats. I'll pass on that. I maybe don't encounter the multitude of overzealous drunk admirers of bygone years but I am a busy girl. nevertheless anyone rockin' the western shirt and dissuading the douchebags I should encounter, allowing me to actually listen to the music and knock back a jack and coke, Well your alright in my book.

4.) I will also promptly reject Tom Leykis and/or Rush Limbaugh fans. I kid you not you might as well fess up I'll find out sooner than later. If you are one of these jackasses thanks for making the world a more insufferable place to live in.
