You can't be putting those kinds of pictures in my head. That's an assault of my imaginnation!

About Me

I don't worry about what people think, since they tend not to do it very often, I am loud, overly suspicious of people who wear neon and have thin and curly villain like mustaches, suffer from a crippling fear that the Hilton Sisters are two of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse and one of them (Paris) will give birth to the Anti-Christ thus ending the world as we know it, a lingering fascination with Sinatra and Dean, love smart humor, my good friend Cameron the Magician, stand-up comedy and midgets, an unrelenting passion for the blues, good poetry, good food, art, Indiana Jones, a perfect mojito and men who play bass guitar. I believe in magic, karma, past lives, Fate, and worship a goddess but still find myself drawn to Dolce & Gabbanna and shoes. I do not believe in coincidence, adultery, the Easter Bunny, Scientology, apple throwing trees, holding grudges or that Elvis is still alive(he's dead people, and he sure as hell wouldn't come back to put his face in a potato, or a grease spot on a wall in a bus station and neither would the Virgin Mary for that matter). I love 60's "sex comedies", 70's "cult flicks" and 80's "teen screwball and slasher movies". I loathe the color orange,feet, trends, people who clap in movie theaters, crowds-especially large ones with stupid people, ignorance, fucking pop up ads for dating services (ah hell ALL POP UPS), "the Hollywood scene", Micheal Jackson haters (I know he done lost his mind ya'll but ain't no reason to hate on the man, somebody help, him PLEASE) and Jennifer Lopez. I love the nightlife, I like to boogie and I think there is a strong possibility that I was a Disco Queen in another life. I have a big heart, despite what my ex boyfriends say a true hopeless romantic. Some people have even said that I might be a little koo koo crazy, but I killed them...In other words, if you don't have anything nice to say, then come sit next to me....

My Interests
