About Me


My life's ambition is to perform an autobiographical musical to a tone deaf audience.
I like limes. A lot.
I like the sound of airplanes in the night sky.
I like horns. The musical kind. Although I have nothing against the head kind either. I mean if you've got some, I wont judge you. Unless you're Satan.

I lived in a Treehouse in Turkey for 4 months when I was 24.

I have been to a lot of places. Approximately 30 countries and 331 cities. According to that 'my travels' thingy I filled out on FB. I guess there are more places out there to see still. So I'll be working on that. Maybe we'll run into one another.
I lived in the Yukon when I was 12. My dad was the National Superintendent of Parks Canada and had to move all over the country all the time. I had to wear ugly Buster Brown shoes and knitted leotards. I also had braces on my teeth. I was a real looker.

I am obsessed with pie. I want to eat a piece everyday.I don't care for candy whatsoever. It's terrible stuff. But I am a great lover and admirer of pie. Especially late night pie at Fran's all night diner. Or after a movie. Apple only if it's my mum's (or mine) and never pumpkin or mincemeat. Disgusting. Shouldn't be called pie. I don't share my pie slice. Get your own. Unless you are very special. Then I might. I bring this up because I just concluded a city wide investigation, with a little help from my friends, of great pie in the city.

I am scared out of my mind by Darth Vadar and Giant Golden-Crowned flying fox bats.

I don't want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don't want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don't want to do that.

[I mean who doesn't want to know that?]uncomfortable silences; awkward moments; saddness; happiness; first moments of discovery; drinking red wine and making no sense...

I'd like to meet:


"Too many guys think I'm a concept, or I complete them, or I'm gonna make them alive. But I'm just a fucked-up girl who's lookin' for my own peace of mind; don't assign me yours". Clementine Kruczynski

What horrible Edward Gorey Death will you die?
You will be sucked dry by a leech. I'd stay away from swimming holes, and stick to good old cement. Even if it does hurt like hell when your toe scrapes the bottom.
Take this quiz !
