THIS BLOWS!!!

About Me

Yep.... This is long, but I always have a lot to say!! Plus, this saves me time from answering a lot of questions in emails! So, here's my story (well, part of it, the rest is for those that truly know me!! hehehehe): I grew up in Houston, saw my first punk show in 1985 - which changed my life forever!! (GBH, Agnostic Front and USMC @ Cafe Mode). Well that, coupled with my born love for METAL!!!! By the time the mid 90's had rolled around I had already had a taste of rockabilly, psychobilly, punk, hardcore, death-metal, nu-wave, industrial - hell you name it!! And I liked aspects of ALL of them!! So, this diverse blend of influeneces are what helped make me who I am. I lived in Austin for awhile, after high school, then back to Houston, where I had my hands in all facets of "the scene" at that time. I then I moved to Phoenix, AZ. I helped form and played bass for, THE HABITBREAKERS 1994-1995 and I then helped form BALLS, who I fronted from late 1995-2001. (We played the Warped Tour in Phoenix in 1998, and the Ska vs. Racism Tour in Tempe, also same year, I think!!! Too many years of hair dye and extracurricular activities to recall exactly!!!) I left Phoenix, for Houston, at the end of 2001 due to some MAJOR issues, then I moved to NYC. I moved to FL, by sheer accident, in 2003, and it's what's working for now (but I'm pretty sure NOT forever!!)!! I haven't had a band since the end of 2001, due to concentration on other areas of my life, but I am about to go "band stir crazy"!!! I was featured as Tessa Tattoo (the tattoed "Bettie Page gone super bad girl") in Fanny LaFaye's Blue Burlesque Show, Houston 2002. I joined the Florida Roller Girls Roller Derby Team (April 2006), and my derby name was TRIXIE TRAUMA! That was fun, but I'm on other "life missions" and don't have the time for derby anymore. I have a monthly column called "Trash Talkin'" in MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT MAGAZINE, which is a free zine in central Florida. I'm completely silly and make some insane facial expressions. Oh yah, and I'm totally sober, but you'd probably never know it to talk to me!!! I'm not into one specific style, I don't like to limit myself, as you can tell from my influences! I've been told that I'm "a lovely blend of the 40's meets the 80's, topped off with a candid punk rock edge". That's probably one of the greatest descriptions of me anyone's ever come up with, and definitely one of few that I care to share!! ha! ha! Oh and I've been told that I can be very abrasive, but I just consider myself to be straight-forward. I'm very opinionated, and I stick to my guns. SO, don't ask for my opinion, unless you REALLY want it, and don't get mad if it's not what you wanna hear!! I HATE sugar-coating things or having someone do it to me. Life is far too short for bullshit, so I think everyone should speak their minds!!! It's all in the delivery!!!! I would also like to express my love for exclamation points!! One of those trivial things, that just make me happy for no good reason at all!! Yep, I'm a odd one, completely anal retentive, a true perfectionist and totally A.D.D., and O.C.D.!! (My boyfriend calls me "Monk"!). I don't hide my feelings well, nor do I lie well (anymore!), so don't ask me to. I also have a tendency to say more than I probably should (hence, this section!!) ANYWAY, that about does it. If you care to know anything else about me, just ask, and maybe I'll tell you!!

My Interests

LIPSTICK!!!! And LOTS of it!! Fashion, shoes, purses, socks, shopping, stuff that smells good, eating WAY too many hot/garlic chicken wings, horrror memorabillia, WWII memorabilia - especially the planes, sharpies, studding stuff, sewing (or trying to!!), writing, changing my hair color, finding good anti-aging creams, trying to sing like Rob Halford, making goofy faces, cleaning/ organizing stuff, talking about good "boob jobs", staying friends with my x's, quitting smoking one fine day, getting a 6 pack stomach, being a total "girl" at times, mint chocolate chip ice cream, having another band, being OCD, over analyzing everything you say, oh and did I mention shopping?!?!

I'd like to meet:

Hmmmm..... I'd have to say, people that know what they want and stick to their guns. Pretty much anybody that's not a complete douche nozzle, is honest, has a sense of humor, is open-mided, and has some good stories to tell!!!
