I am here for Friends

About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4i'm a spunky brunette who lives in the hudson valley region of new york in a cute little apartment with my girls. i drink too much coffee and listen to my music too loud. i haven't had an amazing nightlife now for about a year and have to say i'm a huge fan of a good nights' sleep. i'm a perfectionist that doesn't entirely know how to slow down and a procrastinator who doesn't know how to get going; a city girl recently relocated to the country; an actor, a poet; a self-proclaimed jack-ass with a goof-ball sense of humor."hate me if you want to, love me if you can..."

My Interests

i read, i write. i love to cook. i love good food and good wine. hot showers. sleep. bombay sapphire and tonics, extra dirty martinis with extra olives, mojitos. autumn. rain. laughter. chocolate. old friends. music and though they might be the death of me, musicians. tattoos. warm sweaters. coffee. being barefoot.

I'd like to meet:

anyone with an obscure sense of humor that can not only laugh at... well... me, but themselves as well; people who don't take life so damn seriously, and anyone who's really down to earth. i'd prefer not to get emails from people who want to buy me dinner, date me, or take me home one night. enough of those emails, thanks.

Music:

i listen to everything. mostly the heavy stuff... tool, perfect circle, marilyn manson, nin... seattle music... good hip-hop... i have a sick fascination with 80s hair rock... trip-hop... blues... jazz... and yep, even country. don't even say anything!

Books:

devil in the white city, a dirty job by christopher moore, the famished road by ben okri, anything by pablo neruda.

Heroes:

my father.

affirmation

inhale, as my arms outstretch lazy at my sides,my head tilts back, and the phantom, my smile,returns to its old stomping grounds on my face.i lay bouyant, like a body in water,the frail little fingers...
