About Me


I am a straight-forward, sarcastic person with a decent sense of humor. am somewhat artistic but not passionate about it. Not at the moment, at least. I enjoy my alone time and am capable of entertaining myself and others but would, on occasion, love to have someone around who soaks up the limelight more than I do. I am a great listener but rarely provide more than just an ear. there's a reason for that, of course. I like playing video games. I can't burp. I associate numbers with colors. I value symmetry but only when made aware of an imbalance. I can fall on cue. Barefoot is the way to go. I could swim year round. I SHOULD swim year round. I cherish the moments when I see beauty in imperfection. If you have trouble laughing at yourself you'll probably have trouble getting along with me. I am many things. I suppose you'll just have to find that out for yourself.
keeper of dust bunnies and things that go bump in the night. they are the army of twilight and I am their fearless leader. wrapped in a blankie.

My Interests


talking in strange accents (that includes meowing), drinking five dollar champagne and eating trail mix the next morning, the smell of matches, uncontrollable laughter, being affectionate when least expected, driving with the windows down on breezy nights, the smell of soap on a sun-warmed body, walking barefoot in the rain, puppy paws, kitty purrrs, rocks, baubles (and anything else that's shiny and useless), twinkle lights (see?), sock puppets, Not having to be "on" all the time, avoiding the crowd while in a crowd and expanding my range of creativity

I'd like to meet:

Lloyd Dobler. George de Mestral. Hook and loop, man. Hook and loop. Oh yeah and Tolstoy. Anyone who calls Nietzsche stupid and abnormal is alright in my book. I'd also like to meet Tim Burton and Todd McFarlane.
