Bring Me A Coxcomb, and I'll Deliver A New Martyr. My Name Is Maggie Graham; I'm Here To Help.

About Me

I am 100% girl. This is not to be read as a feministic slogan; it's merely my self-actualization summed up in a percentage. Now, to define a "girl," or me...Occassionally altruistic, sometimes wild, always calculating, never logical. My day can be and has been justified by the purchase of fancy boots and a timeless dress. Sifting through old make-up bags in a quest to find the perfect eyeshadow is like rifling through an archive of my life history. I cannot change a tire; I prefer to be a passenger; I fight with vicious abandonment; my legs have stopped traffic. I lather my scarred limbs with lotions; I get high on the pungent aroma of bleach and murphy's oil soap. A day with me could be a hysterical misadventure, an unforeseen saga or a grueling journey. I have tripped over cracks in the sidewalk while judging my reflection in a store window. There is a certain Cat Stevens song that strikes a secret chord. My organization is typically haphazard with sewing kits next to cinnamon. I have considered using my refrigerator as additional closet space. I long to have your mom ask my mom if it's alright to play. MyGen Profile Generator ..
