About Me

I have trouble reading Captchas. This makes me question my humanity.

My Interests

Attachment parenting, punk rock, reading, crosswords, sticking it to the man, dancing, gnomes, a little gardening in my little garden, drag queens, and candy. Check out my friend Noah's art project: http://www.skulladay.com/

I am absolutely not interested in meeting motivated moms. Just because I am a tad on the sleep deprived side doesn't mean I have become stupid enough to join a sales pyramid.

How many decades late am I to The Meters??

Movies:

Amelie, Iron Giant, Sid and Nancy, Cat Soup, Hedwig, Decline of the Western Civilization, Bowling for Columbine, Spinal Tap, Suburbia. My Neighbor Totoro, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
