I write to discover what I think. After all, the bars aren't open that early. (Daniel J. Boorstin)

About Me

I've been described as light hearted pessimist and cynic. Once. Then I sodomized him for describing me as such. I love life, I just love to hate it too. I rather enjoy the darker side. Makes all the sparklies more sparkly. As a general rule, I think people suck. Indeed, I know a few cool ones, but I have come to find that they are few and far between...so, I handcuff them to my furniture. They say kidnapping, I say love and realization of what's important.I win.Um, I love to read so much it makes my brain hurt, and I write some crappy shit too.I'm into the theater, love musicals (I am a HUGE RENTHEAD),and music in general.I adore my doggies, kites, sunny days, COMEDY ,playing crazy air guitar alone in my apartment, singing along to music in my car, really good hair days,using coupons, going out at night and feeling like the world is yours....Some examples of things I heartily dislike: arrogant people, ignorant people, people who use the (non)word "irregardless", our "democracy", and organized religion when used as a means of bigotry. I love to meet new people, but only if they are cool. Don't worry, I'll let you know.

You Are a Visionary Soul
You are a curious person, always in a state of awareness.
Connected to all things spiritual, you are very connected to your soul.
You are wise and bright: able to reason and be reasonable.
Occasionally, you get quite depressed and have dark feelings.

You have great vision and can be very insightful.
In fact, you are often profound in a way that surprises yourself.
Visionary souls like you can be the best type of friend.
You are intuitive, understanding, sympathetic, and a good healer.

Souls you are most compatible with: Old Soul and Peacemaker Soul What Kind of Soul Are You?
