I am here for Friends

About Me


—Jessi
—Twenty-something goofball.
— Artist.
— Native Texan (sans accent or boots)
—Horror movie buff, Literary hedonist and Weekend Kung Fu Master.
— My personal Mantra: I will try my hardest to make a difference for those that need some good to come their way.
—I love to collect art, monkeys and Asian knick knacks.
— My marriage is happily perturbed.
—I can't stand cattiness, I'm as imperfect as they come and embrace it to the best of my ability.
— Schticks consist of : tea, hair accessories, many things soy, 80's music, my family, my dogs, a good book, chopsticks, ethnic food, thrift stores, good friends, working out at least 3 times a week and humor--toilet or otherwise.
—I have a weak spot for women with sunny smiles, guys that give good hugs and all around dorky people.
— Absolutely nothing is more important than my family. Individually, my mother is a treasure and a nutjob.
—I'm crude, yet my dignity always remains intact. But, I may shred yours if you're not a good sport..
