I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Don't waste my time - it makes me angry. It also makes me borderline homicidal when people spell my name with only one L, so don't do that. I have a ferret named Chloe, and she is my reason to smile. I have awesome friends, of whom I am fiercely protective. I'm also loyal to a fault, and I haven't yet figured out if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

My Interests

Writing, music, movies, art, animals, reading, photography, psychology, laughing, dreaming, cuddling, stability, contentment, coffee, sharp objects, and other random things that make me happy.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone interesting enough to hold my attention.

Bloggish

I finally did it - I came out of hiding. I went through my LJ - the whole damn thing, soup to nuts - and I unlocked a great deal of it. Katie said I had fans, and sometimes you just gotta give the peo...

Breaking point

I think I make myself pretty fucking clear. Don't waste my time. I promised myself I wouldn't do this again, and yet here I am, trying to figure out how the hell that just came out of left field. I di...

Whether its fact or fiction doesnt matter - its life

She stood on the stairs in that familiar club, the same place she had spent so many nights when it had gone by a different name. Now, so much had changed when so much had stayed the same, and here she...

A lesson well learned

How interesting that I find myself in this position. In 24 hours, my entire mindset has turned around, and I finally realize why I felt how I thought I felt. I was taking the path most familiar to me,...

It doesn’t fit anymore...

I wanted this... For 4 months, give or take, and maybe even longer than that, all I wanted was to be here. I had a memory that I glorified over the years - sun, sand, surf. Somewhere warm and safe, a ...

The end of an era

Yesterday I literally watched the last piece of my childhood die right in front of me. I'm not a kid anymore, and my beloved dog Paloneous had to be put down. I got her when I was 9 years old (and yes...

What a difference a shelf makes

I woke up yesterday and called in sick to work, due to the pounding pain in my head & face. When I woke up again at 2, and the pain had subsided to at least a tolerable volume, I surveyed my apart...

I should not gamble

"Stop betting on a horse that never wins." Advice from probably the last person I ever expected to be getting advice from. It's not to say that it wasn't good advice - it was. Stop caring so much abou...
