About Me

Living in my own my cute ,little, all my very own apartment north of Seattle. Learning to live in a city full of some seriously unfriendly and/or socially incapable people. Adapting to my new strange little life.While I am adapting I am not assimilating.....In the absence of what should be normal, I foresee a heavy creative period in my life happening..I'm happy and I'll keep on trucking on this long road trip I have taken myself on.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
