About Me

Before you go and click the make me a friend button over there ----- you should be made aware that only folks I actually know, musicians or authors that I like (and know their works) or things I'm actually invovled in somehow (like the Bako LGBTQ and CSUB stuff and again, therefore, know) are on my friend's list. That's it. SO if you wanna add me to your friend's list, you gotta get to actually befriend me first.

As Is Lyrics

I am an artist and gallery manager (check out the Art Studio and 18th St Gallery on 18th- we even have a MySpace page just for it!) and former book store assistant manager (now just and events girl- sorry, Russo's!) and general cranky puss.

My Interests

Art, music, books, Pagan & other human issues (like feminism, gay rights, common sense), nature, friends, family, history, movies, theater, writing, reading, going outside and letting it get inside, love, happiness, growth, you know, all that happy tree-hugging dirt-worshipper stuff!

I'd like to meet:


Your Candy Heart Says "Get Real"
You're a bit of a cynic when it comes to love.
You don't lose your head, and hardly anyone penetrates your heart.

Your ideal Valentine's Day date: is all about the person you're seeing (with no mentions of v-day!)

Your flirting style: honest and even slightly sarcastic

What turns you off: romantic expectations and "greeting card" holidays

Why you're hot: you don't just play hard to get - you are hard to get What Does Your Candy Heart Say? Stardust Trailer

Patty, who manages to be true to herself and fight the good fight, and even find true love. Mimi & PopPop, for being the most awesome grandparents anyone could have. My Mom, who never stops amazing me with her bravery and love.

Let’s see, where was I?

I watched Stardust (how could I not, since it's one of my favorite books?) and I have to say I really enjoyed it. Definitely going to see it again! I liked how they adapted it for the screen, I l...

This town is too damned small for it's ego

Careful gentle readers, this one's FULL of bitchiness. Last time I heard the statistics, the average education level in Bako is something like 4th grade. Average reading level is about the same. ...

Sometimes people just suck.

I learned, during my drive back from Texas over the holidays, that fanatical football fans are horrible drivers. Fanatical Oklahoma football fans are the worst drivers of all, exponentially worse even...

FAITH

Faith isn't something you learn from a book, or get taught in a class, or learn from a person. Faith is something you feel. Overwhelmingly. Without having to talk yourself into believing it or na...

Sea Change

I stand here near the shore of my life, the tides of my past swirling around my ankles like an undertow, threatening to undermine my footing and suck me into some contemplative oblivion. I can feel th...

Return of the Anti-Christ(ian)
