About Me

I have an agenda. Professional and volunteer social justice junkie, artist, vegetarian with a penchant for all things spiritual, and slightly imperfect mom to a great son. In my zany world, everyone and everything is part of a bizarre and beautiful cosmic whole. I take good care of my body and like to travel, camp, backpack & hike. I like bright shiny objects and things that bounce, spin, or fly around, especially belly dancers. They call me femveg and "ghetto barbie" (not my idea, but it's not bad!). Namaste!femveg

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Open minded and adventurous people who appreciate ethics, justice, compassion, and creativity in all their forms. People who think for themselves, then back it up with action! Bright, curious people who have enough money to take care of themselves but don't get hung up on consumer culture unless it's to make fun of it.People with cool favorite words. You know that word you've always loved to say, think, write... even if you didn't know what it meant? My fave now is "ephemeron" but that changes alot. My other top words are zephyr, swanky, and miscreant. Alex's are sassafras, cataclysmic, and caboose. Frank's is locomotive. Nanette's is ginormous. Subhadra's is onomatopoeia. Greg swears he has not been, and hopes never to be, inured. Om Mani Padme Hum!What are yours? Post them on my page!
