A true friend stabs in the front - Oscar Wilde

About Me


I love Umeboshi and going to movies alone late at night. I grew up on a rusty old farm in a small town once famous for chickens and wrist wrestling. I spent my childhood wandering around in the field behind my parents house, mutilating barbie dolls, riding my rickety bicycle up and down dusty roads, and smoking clove cigarettes behind the barn. My parents had six children and I am the fourth born. Born a Pisces fire dragon, the 200th year after The American Revolution.
I plan on living through the revolution

PS. If you don't send me a message, I will not accept your friend request. If I look at your profile and it turns out you are a spammer/friend whore/idiot I will silently curse you and you will start to feel every single negative side effect of whatever medication you are currently taking until you undo the curse. The remedy might involve crawling under a bramble wearing a Tibetan yak hair shirt beneath a full moon that falls on a Tuesday. So don't fuck with me.
