I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I have lived in the southwest my entire life and can once again call Las Cruces home...this time for more than just the summers. I'm sarcastic and according to my mother quite twisted. I'm open and tell it like it is. Ask me anything you want and I'll likely answer.

My Interests

stimulating conversation, a great mouth, quick wit and people who make me think.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who doesn't piss me off. Sure I like to get riled up. I like someone who challenges me mentally and who challenges my position and opinions. Just be smart about it. Dumb arguments are a waste of time. I don't like most people and although I'm nice I just simply don't take all the time in the world to deal with stupidity.Please don't send me a friend request if you are just trying to increase your number of friends. If you're interested in talking to me send me a message. Also, see where it says lesbian? That means I'm not looking to sleep with you and your husband/boyfriend/male fuck buddy.

Music:

Dispatch, Lovage, Morcheeba, Massive Attack, Portishead, Korn, Earshot, Godsmack, Ani DiFranco, David Gray, Mazzy Star, K's Choice, Jack Johnson, Tegan and Sara, The Cure, Kidneythieves, Disturbed, AnnetennA/EdnaSwap, Shakira (in Spanish ONLY), Concrete Blonde, Counting Crows, Joe Henry, Texas, Travis, Dido, Damien Rice, The Cowboy Junkies, Barenaked Ladies, Aimee Mann, Scissor Sisters, Frou Frou, Holly McNarland ...tons really

Movies:

Donnie Darko, The Boondock Saints, Far Away So Close, The Usual Suspects, Goonies, The Lost Boys, Bram Stoker's Dracula, Queen of the Damned, Playing By Heart, Tipping the Velvet, The Craft, Top Gun, Tombstone, The Breakfast Club, Ghostbusters, The Monster Squad, Van Helsing, But I'm a Cheerleader, Closer, Napolean Dynamite, Sin City, Singin' In The Rain, Pirates of the Carribean, Four Weddings and a Funeral,Broken Flowers, Shop Girl, Fargo, Lucky Number Sleven, Constantine...

Television:

Gilmore Girls, CSI, Two and a Half Men, Charmed, Crossing Jordan, Mythbusters, Sell This House (Tanya Memme is fucking gorgeous!!!), The Daily Show, Dave the Barbarian, Danny Phantom, Jimmy Neutron (yes! I still watch cartoons!), Queer as Folk, Carnival, Dead Like Me and....basically anything that seems interesting at the time when I happen to be near a tv and willing to watch.I don't know why but this made me laugh soooo hard. ..

Books:

Brave New World, all of the Anne Rice books-not just the Vampire Chronicles but also the Mayfair Witches, Exit to Eden(I have read it numerous times and never tire of it), Belinda, Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Blake Vampire Hunter series, Jonathan Kellerman books, Do-It-Yourself Books....lots really. I'm contantly looking for stimulation and whatever sparks my interest at the time is likely something I'll enjoy

We flew in yesterday from Vegas.  Work sent me out there for a convention.  Although it was weird there was a lot to learn.  We spent most of the time in the hotel except Wednesday nigh...

this hasn't happened in about 10 years

Ever have someone hurt you so badly that they died? Not literally died...but died for you?  I actually loved her ....a lot.  She just kept hurting me...kept letting others hurt me and be dis...

got here safe...time to unpack

things didn't go as smoothly as I'd hoped but it didn't go as badly as it could have.  I wasn't able to rent the large truck (because silver city sucks ass) and ended up with the largest of the ...

is this as funny to anyone else?

I have this friend (he's not on my friends list so don't try figuring out who he is) who has an enormous penis.  Now, how I know this is unimportant because we're strictly platonic.  Point ...

where to now?

This town is sucking the life out of me.  I need to leave and will shortly.  One of the most important people in my life (loretta) is a huge draw for moving to El Paso.  However, I've a...

I fell in love with Oregon from watching The Goonies as a kid and now have added Portland and the surrounding area to my "where I might move" list.  I'm not going to rule out Seattle...it is so c...
