I need coffee to get up before 10 or I will be a negative Nancy all day. I'm not superstitious, however I kiss the roof of the car when driving through a yellow light.
If you ever say sushi, chinese, Chipotle, Starbucks, or Red Robin I will be there.
If my life had a soundtrack it would be quite eclectic and most likely a little disturbing, and that's how I like it.

My Interests

Photography, Advertising, Activism, Films, Novelty, Traveling, Reading, Singing (badly and loud), Window shopping, Cities, Camping (though I've never been).

I'd like to meet:

I like people who are intelligent and novel but also keep me entertained - are wild, crazy, spontaneous, and willing to try new things, free spirits if you will. If you can't hold an intelligent conversation with me then I won't find you worth my time. If you can't relax and just go with the flow then I could get bored.View All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment
