She also really likes bunnies.I have an odd, verging-on-erotic obsession with zombies.I am a jazz/cabaret singer.I love showtunes.I grew up in a shithole country town called Dubbo. I am an encyclopedia of irrelevant zombie information, among other things.I love gore. Blood. Guts. Stages of d.e.c.o.m.p.o.s.i.t.i.o.n. I am friendly. I am harsh. I am an intellectual snob. I can be one of the ditsyest people you'll ever meet.Vocabulary is my playground..

I'd like to meet:

A zombie. No, not just one, a horde of them. I patiently await the zombie outbreak. I am prepared. I may or may not also want to hump them. I'd like to meet the male equivalent of myself. I'd like to meet someone who makes me say "woah, you're twisted!". I'd like to meet Rozz Williams, but he's dead... *pout* 1334 forever. But mainly, yes, zombies. *zombie love!*

Nekromantik. Thirteen Conversations about One Thing. Disney Movies.

Television:

This section will be short as I rarely watch television. If I do, it's nature documentaries. I like to watch beetles root. Yeah, my former housemate Diamond and I used to watch beetles sexing doco's, the biggest loser (which she called 'My Big Fat Loser') and CSI. That's about it really. Oh, and Iron Chef, CNNNN and Little Brittain.
