About Me

you all (yeah, all 4 of you) know my antics....mellow, attentive, mouthy, quiet, introspective, stubborn, loving, a sucker, passionate, understated, self-deprecating, naughty, skeptical, dig gray area, and...hhmmmm...uuhhh....at a loss for words...

My Interests

wandering - hilarity - regression - inducing laughter - being - social justice - feminist therapy - getting dirty on a trail - joy - people challenging my bullshit - finding my way out of useless patterns - letting go of fear - contemplative moments - novel ideas - writing erotica - self-inspiration - imaginings - unfiltered speech - raw energy - quantum physics - all varieties of exploration - truthiness (ahh, steve colbert...)

I'd like to meet:

perhaps some deep thinkers, those who question reality, the politically disillusioned, the optimistic to balance out my innate cynicism, those with a penchant for irreverence, savvy world travelers, and others who share my bizarre affinity for salt lake city and want their out-of-state friends to visit anyway. sigh...
