I cannot stay here too long before my machine friends become nervous and do something rash

About Me

"How long, how long since I noticed the stars; no longer, now, mere inane pinpricks on a smoldering sky of cheap cloth- but symbols, islands of light, soft, mysterious, hard, cold- all things, as much as I made them."*******Hmmm, random facts: i love to travel. i feel best when i'm on the move, going someplace rather than being there. i'm a european mutt with a dab of Sioux indian. just left the grand world of finance- it came to my attention that wearing flip-flops, having the vocabulary of a sailor and constantly showing up with charcoal-stained hands from drawing just wasn't going to mesh with the corporate agenda... sometimes i think about giving in and accepting that school offer in morocco... i have zero tolerance for lies or betrayals towards myself or my friends. i'm expressive, i laugh alot, am 110% adverse to cell phone conversations. i'm obsessed with my dog the way people are with their children. i'm better at languages than i let on. i'm related to one of the first witches burned in Salem as well as a mass-murderer, so breeding probably isn't the best choice for me. carabiners are god's gift to the hiker and on that note, i'm a die-hard fan of camping- i prefer hiking In, but have no complaints for BMP-style trips. i can't get enough tofu and am still nervously awaiting celestine prophecy-fanatics (lovely book though, i'll admit) to come charging in with a claim that they can actually hear the soy bean scream when it's picked. and i have a firm belief that everyone, at one point or another in their life, has romanced an obsession with a) the titanic, b) the holocaust or c) the uruguayan rugby team that crashed in the andes in 72'.

New York City Motto:

"I don't speak Latin but have always assumed that the city motto translates to either Go Home or We Don't Like You, either." aHahahaHahahahahaH
