I spilled my 40!?!

About Me

I moved into Philadelphia with a cabinet from Ikea and a willingness not to settle. I have created the life that I have always aspired to lead. On the streets while sifting through your trash I have found a way of turning trash into functional art. The home that I live in is the one that I have created. It is the bungalow that I dreamed of my whole life. While walking my dog I have chanced upon a room. It is, 'The Lipstick Beauty Salon' full with a barber chair and the 'Turbinator', a 50's hair dryer turned lamp.I am part of a theater group called, The Dumpsta Players . I have been performing for over three years. I have also preformed at Ms. Lisa's Drag Show and Gay Bingo. Such illustrious rolls include Juicy Weinstien, Paris Hilton, Doris Shittickler and a mummer. Ms. Nueva Gabor made her grand appearance while hostessing Prom Trash Vegas. The Dumpsta's are a burlesque style of performance that incorporates songs, lip sync, live and taped dialogue. It is something to witness if one is ever able.

My Interests

Finding what others throw away and turning it into art. Your only limit is your own imagination. I have yet to find an end to mine.

I'd like to meet:

The person that I would like to meet is the opposite of me in some aspects and the same in others. I am articulate and have for attention to details. I love the arts and enjoy going to every museum that I can get into as well as working in one. I adore this city and take pleasure in waking here every day. However, I hate cooking, I do not even like to make tuna fish because it requires the use of a can opener. I do not mind doing the dishes though. I am a dork that drinks too much coffee. I delight in my friends and making new ones.
