I am here for Dating, Friends and Networking

About Me

I am bringing back hats and gloves. I make everything from scratch. My favourite smells are bayberry, pine, and attic. I have your grandmother's hobbies. When I grow up, I want to be a housewife. I don't like flakes or fakes. I am super dry and sarcastic. If you have no sense of humour or thin skin, there is no hope for you here. Yes, I am that person sitting across the room, running commentary under my breath. Yes, I will say it to your face if you come closer. xoxox.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Wanders, Dreamers, backyard farmers, and a partner in crime.

NOTE: PLEASE DO NOT RANDOMLY ADD ME AS A FRIEND. YOU WILL BE DENIED. I AM NOT HERE FOR YOUR POPULARITY CONTEST.

SXSW, Nightmares, Broken Hearts, and Nervous Breakdowns

Nervous doesn't even begin to cover it

When I was probably about ten or eleven, my mother began having having back problems and widespread pain throughout her body.  This lead eventually to a dependency on the prescription painkillers and ...

The only happy endings come after massages in Chinatown.

Growing up, as a little girl, being fed fairy tales, Barbie lies, and Disney dreams, I developed this false sense of entitlement to a storybook, movie ending romance.  I had been promised "TRUE L...

I just finished reading, "Hes Just Not That Into You."

Ok. I get it. He's just not that into me. But how much does it suck, how discouraging is it, to realize that someone you love, who cares about you, who likes you as a person, but ultimately doesn't...

Things always turn out differently than I expect.

I am not feeling particularly profound this evening. I just wanted to report that I am actually doing well. I am finally caught up and totally back on my feet after my Rio layoff. Let the debt bani...

I’m almost feeling sorry for what I’m gonna do.

Currently in my adventure of overhauling myself, I have realized that I need to reevaluate my personal relationships (Thank you, Tim...someday I will repay you for all of this.). I have curated a mus...

I might join your century, but only on a rare occasion.

These last couple of weeks have been busier and more intense than I had planned. I have to realize that I simply cannot control what happens to me, only my reaction to what occurs.I have a list of fe...
