About Me


~*"Life is a banquet and most poor sons of bitches are starving to death." Auntie Mame*~ Much like a crow, I am endlessly fascinated by sparkly things. I'm a supermom, wordsmith, author, TV Spokesperson, chanteuse, thespian, jewelry and mixed media artiste, black sheep, roustabout, ne'er do well...and a Jill of All Trades/Renaissance Woman. I believe that a girl can never have too many shoes and that every girl needs a tiara. I think Hello Kitty stuff kicks ass and I'm not afraid to admit it. I have a potty mouth. I'd like to claim it's Tourette's Syndrome, but that would be a lie. I have an affinity for all things kitschy, naughty, punny, irreverent and left of center. But not right of center, those things are just plain ugly. I believe in random acts of kindness, unconditional love and in paying it forward whenever one can. That about covers it. Come on over to www.margotpotter.com and visit my world, if you dare! You should create your own MySpace Layouts like me by using nUCLEArcENTURy .COM's MySpace Profile Editor !

My Interests

Sparkly things, courting my muse, shoes, artistic expressions of exquisite beauty or excruciating truth, the compassionate heart, contemplating the meaning of life, trying to stop contemplating the meaning of life, leaping into life's adventures with unbridled passion and scraping off the residue of said leaping.

I'd like to meet:

fellow crafty girlz and boyz, jewelry artistes, artsy types, musicians, chanteuses and golden throated lotharios, theatre geeks, thespians, orange wenches, vintage lovers, writers, backyard chicken farmers, fair trade supporters, poets, muses, philosophers, malcontents, roustabouts and ne'er do wells, square pegs, black sheep people, people who need people...and a variety of fascinating people throughout history who are no longer available for wine and conversation.

Music:

Yes oh yes, please and thank you. Sing it, listen to it, love it!

Movies:

Now you're talking my language!

Television:

I'll pass...thanks.

Books:

Yes, yes, yes. Write them, devour them, love them! ..

Heroes:

I have many. My kid is tops and my sisters and mother are right up there. In general, my heroes are people of extraordinary creativity, intellect, compassion, fortitude and eccentricity who possess a vivid sense of the absurdity of the human condition!"My religion is kindness" The 14th Dalai Lama
