Sometimes the only appropriate response to reality is to go insane!

About Me

Create or get your
very own MySpace Layouts Wow! About me...My friends say I am deceptively cheery. I love life, although I really don't have one. I believe in making the world better for humanity, although I really don't like people. I have a great sense of humor, if you like the dark and sarcastic kind. I love bad horror and sci fi, but also watch documentaries. I listen to heavy metal, punk, reggae, classical, jazz, and music from all over the world--especially music with a message. I am my own dichotomy and worse enemy!

My Interests

I mentioned most everything up above! I love liberal politics, lobbying for and against new laws, trying to make the world a better place. I am a feminist and love to create community change in a positive way honoring all persons.IN MEMORY OF ALL THE WOMEN WHO DIED IN BACKSTREET ABORTION AND IN SOLIDARY TO ALL WHO CONTINUE THE FIGHT TO KEEP ABORTIONS LEGAL

I'd like to meet:

People who are as diverse, odd and strange as I am. Also, I love people with a purpose in their life, who believe in something and work to make it happen. I am attracted to people who love to tilt at windmills and are willing to support others in that worthwhile pastime.

Music:

Rock, Punk, Reggae, Classical, Jazz, Classic Rock, Opera, Show Tunes, Ambient...ok easier to say what I don't like...music that promotes violence...everything else I will listen!

Movies:

I don't know

Television:

I don't know

Books:

All I read are law books and law review articles. I can't wait to read a book!

Heroes:

Nelson Mandela is my greatest hero. He is the personification of maintaining true to your beliefs, working for a just and equal world, and most of all grace under adversity.Stephen Hawkings is one another. He is an inspiration to me to overcome my personal limitations and do amazing things.
