you say i'm crazy. i got your crazy.

About Me

i'm pretty amazing. risin' and shinin' for the man and his minions. old time ragamuffin without health insurance. urban swinging over the moon. dreaming that one day i'll remember that it was all a joke. sipping bubbly pink champagne at your mother's garden party.

My Interests

taking trips and not just the traveling kind, but also the kind where you fall over your own two feet. laughing like an old lady who's smoked for 50 years. karaoke at all star lanes, eagle rock style. rumspringa! chubby funster. breaking candy glass over my head. constantly wanting a cigarette. spending hours studying martha stewart. playing poker with matthew perry. "havana nights" deciding between a scrabble competition or watching tennis on tv. i'm that simple. feeling sorry for myself. listening to horrific blind date stories. making love to america!
