About Me

Loves trees & forests and other beautiful, good for the soul type of nature-y things, especially those found in the Northwest.

Likes to express creativity by using words that aren't necessarily in the dictionary.

Likes listening to loud-ish music to find meaning and purpose in song lyrics which can apply to current life situations.

Likes to use the phrases -ish and -y way too much. Everything sounds better with -ish!

Desparately shy until you get to know me then I'll talk yer ear off.

Hates mean people.

One of my labor of loves is running a GLBT youth site - OUTMINDS.com .

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Really just looking for some friends who aren't into the whole drama scene. I'm primarily into hanging out with friends connecting over deep conversations about life, love and what-not, watching movies or some good tv shows, playing video games, going out to dinner, etc. Not into smoking, drugs, or too much drinking.

Music:

I like music of all kinds - right now my current interests are in dance/techno, some popular music, and I always like 80's new wave, and the grrrl rock. LOL.

Television:

ER, Survivor, Gray's Anatomy, Everwood, Medium, Battlestar Gallactica, Amazing Race, Smallville.No longer (makes me sad): Jack and Bobby, Judging Amy, Star Trek Voyager.

Books:

GLBT young adult literature, new agey stuff, Anne Rice.

Weird Week

Day 8... a few days late

Well then, don't I suck? I did not post Day 8's journey. Day Eight was a big blur in reality. GeoRaine and I did the downtown thing and we visited Starbucks headquarters... which was kinda cool to see...

Day 6: Another Rainy Seattle Day

Greetings from Rainy-ish Seattle (I say this as essence of SUN comes shining through the hotel window). Yes, essence of SUN.... a new concept that I've created. Not quite sun, but not quite clouds eit...

Day 5: 1100 Miles

Yep, 1100 miles! That's how long of a side-trip Dena's plan turned out to be. Woah, quite a busy few days of driving. But we got to see some amazing things. Today we woke up in Florence, Oregon and dr...

Day Four: Greetings from Florence

Greetings from Florence, Oregon that is. One of the cities amongst the miles and miles of sand dunes on the Oregon coastline. I must confess that I am rather tired so I'm not sure how exciting this bl...

Day Three - Rolling, Rolling, Rolling

Whew! What a day it was. Not in the usual flavor of the past few days, but exhilarating if not extremely petrifying at times. I had a bit of a meltdown this evening and... well, I'll start at the begi...
