~One Night Butterfly~

I'm a million different things... and not a one you know.

About Me


Sweet Home Chicago!
My FAVORITE building downtown - John Hancock!
WEDDING DATE: OCTOBER 18, 2008 - SEND GIFTS!!
Welcome to the profile of a young dreamer from the Southside of Chicago. My given name is Kathleen, but everyone usually calls me Squee. Though I do read Jhonen Vasquez comics - I didn't adopt this name myself.
I work at my local library as the Assistant Circulation/Technical Services Manager. For the record, we sad little librarians do a lot more than check in and check out. Libraries of today are SOO not quiet places to work either. Oh the stories I could tell...
When I'm not off doing library-land stuff, I spend most of my time writing, reading, and dreaming. My aspirations range from the mundane to the insane - Before my demise, I hope to be a rockstar, a writer, a fashion designer, a librarian, a geologist, owner of a successful venue, a loving wife and parent. I'm young... it could still happen. :)
I'm VERY into music and listen to oodles of different kinds (just check out my list!) Though I do admit, most of the good stuff comes from overseas (Scandinavia! Europe!) - lately I've been on a rabid Goth/Industrial/? kick. I can't seem to get enough Voltaire, E Nomine, Cruxshadows and the like throwing in Sentenced, Poisonblack, H.I.M. etc. in from time to time.
When it comes to writing, I like my literature alot like how I like my music - totally away from the norm. I seem to have trouble making stories that have the typical happy ending - hence all my stories wind up sounding more like the plots for Action/Horror/Sci Fi movies with deeper melancholy twists. As far as the stereotypical book goes - Fuck limits!
Other than that, I guess I'm just your average unique skrawny brunette. Don't call me goth because I am so not. I can't honestly say WHAT I am - but I like it. I desire no labels...

WITNESS MY TATTOO LOVE!!

My Interests

My current project is a band called Acid Gemini, which I play bells and vocals. Aside from music and the literary arts, I have a strong interest in Geology.
Likes: reading books, writing stories poems and songs. I LOVE Music - Black Metal, Death Metal, Heavy Metal, Love Metal, Goth, Industrial - essentially everything except Gospel, Country, or rap (cuz ya need the word Rap to make the word CRAP.) going to concerts, sunflower seeds, cheese, steak, semi-cool days, walking in forest preserves, cats, birds, spiders, mythological creatures, jasmine inscense, candles, creative people (all you shmucks who look and act like you were grown at a Keebler Cookie Cutter People Factory kill me a little bit every time you open your mouth)
Dislikes: humidity, creepy meats like liver and tongue, pork, mosquitos and other multilegged creepy crawlers (bees are just plain scary), guys that do stupid walks, guys who don't get the concept of UNDERwear (IT GOES INSIDE THE FUCKING PANTS!!!), annoying co-workers, stupid people, people who try to run me over in their pick up trucks, my house, chick fashions (yeah... like I'm really gonna wear something I have to GLUE on), the fact that I can't draw worth spit
Collections: Medieval weapons - Swords, knives, maces, axes, pikes - Comics - Shot glasses, Drinking glasses - Music Boxes.
My new obsession is to get a horn like the lead singer of Amon Amarth - cuz that is fucking awesome!

Fuck the book nazis - My Library OWNS this book!

It never ceases to amaze me, the nearly absurd things that make a book be challenged or eventually banned. With Narnia, it was the fact that there was a witch and animals that talk - Huck finn racism ...

random amusement...

I find it funny that when you look up Nightwish Wallpaper on google images, you get nearly everything except pictures of Nightwish.  you'd think for how long they've been around, there'd be a lo...

Green Monster ceases to care...

So my sister, in a rather drunken state decided it would be a gag to post a blog about her upcoming nupitals.  I don't know for sure if she meant to take a couple low blows at me - and I'm sure a...
