About Me

i see. i hear. i touch. i taste. i speak. i smell, but not in a bad way.

My Interests

Fashion and style: I like that living sculpture can act as a social barometer. Vintage is amazing and still surpasses almost anything made these days. Just because you buy expensive clothes and subscribe to trends doesn't mean you have style.Art and things that make you think differently about the world you live in, things that make you question what you know, things that challenge you.Good conversation, especially with interesting people.
Traveling and seeing things that you don't get to see every day.Laughing and enjoying life.Things I can make with my hands. Painting, sewing, being crafty, putting things together. Anything that I can see in stages of development and to enjoy the final outcome.Shakin' my booty like a salt shaker, crafty things, acupuncture, the beach, stars and planets, pinball, bowling, plants, animals, people, culture, underwater creatures, food, riding bikes, roller coasters, pin up, tattoos, textiles, things that sparkle. GO GO GLITTER!!

I'd like to meet:

creators of stuff. faeries who make faerie mischief. your mother and perhaps you.

Music:

music with a conscience. music that abides by the Golden Ratio. music that makes you feel good. music that makes you feel like you are fucked up even though you aren't. music that gives you goosebumps and makes you shiver. music that makes you laugh. music that makes you cry. music that makes you want to be in love. music that elicits rage. music that you cannot live without. MUSIC THAT MAKES YOU DANCE.

Movies:

amelie, true romance, donnie darko, the big lebowski, the royal tenenbaums, hedwig and the angry inch, star wars, the fellowship of the rings, american beauty, anything by: tim burton or john waters. cheesy 80's movies. bad old horror movies. old movies.

Television:

is a waste of time and oh so boring. unless its pbs. and project runway (i like fashion, what can i say)

Books:

A great book becomes your best friend while you are reading it. You don't realize how attached you are until its over. You are left with a sense that you have experienced something wonderful, but this loneliness exists.

Heroes:

Mom, Julie Johnston, Emma Goldman. Anyone who has the courage to be themselves in a world full of robots.
