About Me

Where the spirit does not work with the hand, there is no art. [Da Vinci]

My name is Abigail Blythe [abbye] and I would like to make a home for you.
I'm a dreamer of the most embarrassing kind. The kind that openly never grows up, and secretly never gives up.
Jesus is the only reason I need.
i live on the edge of depression and the coat tails of joy, accepting that I am always an extreme and never left to mediocre devises.
I love photography, because beauty is a challege to capture, despite it's abundance.
I dont ever blow kisses, I throw kisses.
I still play dress up, I'm still a child.
I spend all my money on art supplies and blank cds.
I'm happiest sprawled out 'neath a starlight sky with someone I love, talking till we fall asleep.
I am Abigail Blythe, and I'm more spirit than body, anyways.

abigail[blythe] --
[noun]:
A Fanciful Dreamer, a Late Night Schemer.

My Interests

Nothing and Nobody. Everything and Everybody.

Arts of any kind. [The opera, the Theatre, Art Museums, painting, concerts, poetry, symphonies, literature, coffee shop talk.]

[Oh yes, I AM mother abbess.]

Birds. Goldfinches.

I'd like to meet:

[a boy who will write me letters.] A friend who will be deeper than a friend, and a lover who isn't afraid to love.

[and someone who will play dressup with me.]
