how to disappear completely...

About Me

I am a girl with many imperfections...I can be rather insecure at times and I am rarely punctual. Certain people love me despite these imperfections while there are still others who will always use them against me.

Despite my imperfections, I'm probably one of the nicest and most down to earth people you will ever meet. Usually, I conceal my true self from most people yet I would hope that no one considers me to be "fake". I'm a scorpio...through and through. It is in my nature to be rather mysterious. I seem simple to those that don't know me well but for my closest friends, I allow them to see all my inner complexities that help to explain why I am the person I have grown up to be.

I like warm sunny days, flowers, cookouts, sweet tea, an occassional cold beer, cute things, silly random conversations, and concerts. I also like cold days, scarves, trench coats, hot chocolate, coffee, fires, wine, serious discussions about current events , exchanging opinions on religion, psychology, politics, racial relations, and the paranormal. Thrift stores and yard sales on Saturday mornings are very exciting for me because I like being surprised by what I discover. I like sitting in the dark while using an ouija board with 2 or 3 friends, not because I am taking it seriously but because of my curiousity and...it is entertaining. I like to scare myself by watching scary movies before I fall asleep as long as I have someone waiting for me in bed. I love sweet kisses and hugging people because I think that we all need more affection in our lives.

I like very many things...but most of all, I really like music...a lot. I love it actually. I love playing piano and whatever wind instruments I may have taken an interest in for the moment. Learning how to play different instruments is my hobby.

I want a combo organ...and a mechanical bull...and...a twister game (really). I want to find love that is innocent and pure yet also filled with passion. It is one of the beautiful parts of life. Life in itself is beautiful. I think it is our society that is fucked up and ruining our chances of fully enjoying all that life really could be. I wonder about the purpose of all of this: me, you, the world, galaxy.... What if there was a purpose but it vanished because it has been lost in the "hustle and bustle" of our fast paced world today? I don't expect an answer to that question right now...you see, I wonder about many things that I know will not be able to find answers to...but it doesn't stop me from wondering...maybe one day...

So much for being mysterious.

I'd like to meet:

I will add you if it seems that we have atleast a few common interests or if we have known each other in the past or we are currently friends / aquaintances.

I have a particular fondness musicians, writers, artists, and people who have a level of obsession for the music of Radiohead, Tool, Prince, Belle and Sebastian, Pinback, and NIN that is even with or excedes that of my own.

No more mean people. I'm trying to rid my life of as much negative energy as possible so please, if you are a jerk or bitchy chick then don't bother me. I don't need myspace drama in my life...it is unnecessary and something that I don't plan to tolerate any longer.

I don't drink or smoke anymore but don't worry, I still don't care if you do...just don't bitch at me about my current lifestyle change (please) and try being a little supportive.

Thanks. Really, I am a very nice person but stuff still annoys me sometimes.

Bands: I will not add you or promote you unless I think that your music is good or that you are atleast making an honest effort at producing something worthwhile.

With all of this being said, if you like, check out my radio show every Tuesday from 3pm - 5pm on WUAG 103.1 FM in Greensboro NC. It is the Top 15 WUAG Albums show. If you are outside of Greensboro then just go to www.wuag.net for live streaming and other nifty station stuff.

Music:

I've played piano since the age of 4 so music is something that has been and always will be a very big part of my life. I enjoy playing 20th century piano pieces but I have also taken an interest in historic keyboard performance within the past year.If you are concerned about what I enjoy listening to then...read the following quote:"If you develop an ear for sounds that are musical it is like developing an ego. You begin to refuse sounds that are not musical and that way cut yourself off from a good deal of experience. ~John Cage~

hungry, heavily buzzing off of alcohol, and very close to the point of falling asleep.

I feel so much better now.  Writing that in this blog really  helped.  I don't have a solution but atleast I was able to sort through my feelings.  It was nice to write it all out ...

"A groan of tedium escapes me...Is this a test? It has to be. Otherwise I can't go on..."

Sometimes...you just have to blog.  Prepare yourself for a nonsensical rant:  I had a really good conversation with my mom earlier today.  She is really my best friend and she pretty ...
