I take sad songs and make them better.

About Me

I like all things radical. I like to be happy ... So I try to do that as much as possible. I am in love with nature and the earth and animals and people ... But I think I like animals the best of all. I love my friends. And my family ... because they're insane ... literally. I enjoy peace in all aspects ... inner ... outer ... Corps ... on Earth ... etc. I use raspberry mint organic toothpaste. I have a hot pink closet ... Janis Joplin is my cat. I'm officially addicted to tattoos ... and Ethiopian food. You can eat it with your hands! Hell, you HAVE to. I love summer time ... I don't kill bugs. They have families, too. I walk barefoot in the grass on my lunchbreak so I can remember to enjoy life. I love surprise parties ... that's why I throw them all the time. Maybe they're not so much surprises anymore ... I am a gypsy ... and I don't know if I'll ever have kids ... I'll just borrow other people's ... and give them back. I have comittment issues ... and I am fully aware. I get bored easily ... and I love that about myself. I miss California like there's a huge hole in my soul and I'll never recover until I return ... fully healed and at peace with myself ... I love yoga ... and my hot instructor who takes his shirt off. I am motivated by love and kindness ... and I like to talk about poop. That's me in a coconut shell ... take care ...

My Interests

Mold-O-Rama ... Souper! Salad! TO GO ... sunny days ... rainy days ... the greener grass ... incense ... LOVE! ... street fairs ... a kitty's velvety nose ... RAW food ... happy happy good times ... brain works ... disorders ... cures ... puzzles ... LOVE! ... making lists ... checking things off lists ... smelling like a cookie ... wearing hoops every day ... TATTOOS! ... picnics ... gypsy life ... freedom! ... exploration ... COLOR! ... helping ... family ... LOVE! ... swings ... perfecting imperfection ... boobs ...

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to say Ghandi ... or Buddha ... or the Dalai Lama ... but I wouldn't know how to act ... really ... what could you possibly say? Thank you for your words, but I'll just let you be and read your book. So I'm more likely to sit around shootin' the shit and picking my nose with the likes of a tattoo artist or the homeless dude that hangs out in the coffee shop. Good times.

Music:

Thom Yorke ... and the other brilliant ... ... Jason Mraz.

Movies:

The Wizard of Oz ... forever and always ...

Television:

No thanks ...

Books:

... now reading the Tao of Pooh again. Wonderfully charming little book ...

Heroes:

Auburn ... tiny Porch.

Proofreader, you're fired.

It's a good thing I quit my job.  You see, I'm a proofreader.  And working with graphic artists gives me the opportunity to get radical free invites designed for my dad's surprise b-day bas...

Dear landlord ...

No, I won't be a part of your cult.  It's just not my style.  And please don't try to hug me anymore, it really creeps me out.  Oh, and I would really like it if you stopped buying me p...
