it's a long way home.

About Me

About me...about me...about me... ummmmm - Come on Dierdra...come up with something witty and funny to say about yourself, but don't be so long-winded that no one will want to read this all the way through... gah! I don't know!!!! The whole world hates me and now I will never win a million dollars, get a coked-out ninja monkey to battle when I get home from work, and I will never get invited to be part of a heist!!!! SUCK.... okay - enough of that. I am Dierdra's "about me" section. I describe Dierdra to the best of my ability. I get entirely to long. I end up doing Dierdra more harm socially that good. I am Dierdra's sense of flaming humiliation. Get MySpace Layouts from nUCLEArcENTURy .COM OR create your own using MySpace profile editor !!!

My Interests

Hmmmm- life. people. art. coffee. reading. writing. running. biking. hiking. skiing. swimming. sittin' in CB. people watching. entertaining new thoughts. and even contemplating how to make death funny when it happens to you... have you ever thought about truly being tickled to death? think about that one you master of disasta' p align="center"

I'd like to meet:

Honestly - I would be absolutely tickled to meet Indiana Jones - come on, with all that swashbuckling - you know it would have to be an interesting encounter. Myabe throw a ninja and a pirate in there just because it would be a trendy thing. I still stand strong in my opinion that a viking would decimate them all. But above all I would love to spend one fraction of a second with Jesus Christ - but someday I am sure that I will meet him, so I'll just be uber-patient. Well, by now you have probably stopped reading this and I can go on filabuster style and rant about fried chicken and the credibitliy of various desserts in social situations.... or maybe marshmallows, or peeps - did you know that if you put them in the microwave they 'splode? You know... I hear say that Rolo's are good when you put them in the freezer.

Music:

I guess I like everything from the type of stuff that they play at Starbucks to really hard, screamy stuff. I just like music that reflects the mood that I am in. So basically, if you notice what I am listening to, you can guess how I am feeling at that particular moment. Well, here are some new ones - Straylight Run, The Format, The Good Life, A.F.I, Mindless Self Indulgence, Sugar Ray, Kimya Dawson, Maroon Five, Buddy Holly, Elvis Presley, Kingston Trio, Amberlin, Green Day, Lit, Yellowcard, Alkaline Trio, Flogging Molly, Damien Rice, The Mars Volta, Itsawhale, Panic!At the Disco, Saves the Day, Further Seems Forever, Angels and Airwaves, The French Kicks, Jack Johnson, Shiny Toy Guns, uhhhhh... and a whole bunch of other people that I am forgetting - I am so ecclectic that it is funny. The Format - She Doesn't Get It

Movies:

all the "Thumb" movies, Ferris Buellers Day Off, Pretty in Pink, The Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, Grosse Pointe Blank, Serendipity, One Crazy Summer, High Fidelity, Fight Club, Night of the Living Dead, Bio-Dome, Out Cold, Grind, Paint Your Wagon (come on, Clint Eastwood sings!) The Ring, The Grudge, How to Marry and Millionaire, Donnie Darko, Boondock Saints, Garden State, I - pretty much anything - I love little artsy films, and movies that I have never seen before! I more wierd and out there - the better! Yeah.... I am sure there are more here too - I just can't think of them - I love movies too much - well... I still don't watch much TV so I have movies....

Television:

I don't watch too much TV - it steals your soul. But when I do sit down and watch a bit - I actually like some cooking shows and Law and Order. Yeah... I am a dork. I forgot.... VH1 it is the uber-drug of pop-culture goodness!!!!

...yeah...disturbing - "Salad Fingers" - I don't watch much in the way of T.V - but online videos and strangeness are freaking amazing.

Books:

"The Virgin Suicides", "My Side of the Mountain", "1984", "Brave New World", "Dracula", and "Catcher in the Rye" - all good stuff. I just recently finished a book called "Death in Yellowstone: Accidents and Foolhardiness in the first National Park" - very interesting. It is a historically timeline of the park based on all of the deaths that occured there over the parks' lifespan... the chapter about hot springs is gruesome and morbidly intreguing. "Choke", "Diary", "Inivisible Monsters", "Survivor", "Lullaby", "Fight Club", "Fugitives and Refugees"... blah blah blah

Heroes:

Yikes - heros for me are all my friends - you know who you are. I really believe that putting what I like and respect and treasure about you all on a website does no justice to how I really feel. Just know that if I call you a friend - I mean it, and you are my hero for just putting up with me! Ha ha!

My Blog

never thought it would end up like this

FUCK.    you ever get a life-or-death phone call? then your phone dies? then you make a choice too late? i am the worst person - the worst friend in the world. ...

I suck. Well, at least my brain. My relationships. Okay. So I have been in two - but I hardly count them as "real" - I am not a "dater" - I never ask anyone out - and usually it is too late by the tim...
