You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.

About Me

"Dancing, is not rising to your feet painlessly like a whirl of dust blown about by the wind. Dancing is when you rise above both worlds, tearing your heart to pieces and giving up your soul." - Rumi, Sufi mystic and poet 13th century

"If you always do what interests you, at least one person is pleased." - Katherine Hepburn

"It's a good thing I was born a girl. Otherwise I would have been born a drag queen." - Dolly Parton

"The crows seemed to be calling his name, thought Caw." - Jack Handy

"I think many of us depend on fantasties of love or whatever the thing is. A kind of romantic notion about people. Upstairs, perhaps we know that people are so awful that we don't want to have anything to do with them. And on the other hand, a kind of continued, ingrained, imprinted sense of romantic, possible, love relationships..." - Paul Taylor

What you don’t want

I've had a case of the blahs for the past week or so.  Weight fluctuations and the process of growing it out have left me with self image issues the size of Texas.  And also, don't tell any...

I don’t talk about this but maybe it’s time?

I made a joke with my boss this afternoon that I haven't made in, if you round up, years. My boss is "pretty quick for a dumb kid from Alabama" (his words not mine), got the joke and expanded hilariou...
