About Me

yes'ems: I like to keep my heart wrapped in fresh rice paper; staying in bed to read all day; poking around in my studio until I actually make something and knitting to distract me from actually making anything; avocados, drinking bourbon and scotch like the gentleman that I will never be, drinking tequila shots like the lady I usually am; being a handbag whore and seeking ebay counseling for my addiction; being a stranger; being the friend of some of the most talented people in town; ants and moths.I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
