It's not fun 'til you're sick

About Me

I am another transplant from Missoula, MT. I grew up in the Siberian climate of Fort Benton/ Loma. I have an eleven year old daughter who is a rocket surgeon. She wants to move to Japan. I want to move to Kuldiga. Oh, and I eat more chocolate than normal food. I am attending Captain Jacks tattoo school and bringin' tha fuckin pain. I have been obsessed with DIY hardcore punkrock since I was old enough to hate authority, and have played in a few bands. My current ear infection/ strep throat project is this:

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Jeffree Star in a dark alley,
People who are fed up and won't give up!

Get this video and more at MySpace.com

oh, and her...

I don't want to meet:
-People who think it's okay to have a beard if you're not a wizard.
-People who are disrespectful to others (someday I'm going to snap and start beating the fucking shit out of every racist and homophobe I meet). So watch your mouth fuckers!
-People who think Noam Chomsky is an "American Patriot". Give me a fucking break. Noam Chomsky is a bad-ass. He will tell you himself that it's for suckers.
-Anyone who is stupid enough to be patriotic.
-Anyone stupid enough to think joining the army is "the right thing to do for your country".
-Last, but definitely not least: Fucking stupid little drama brats who can't stop talking about themselves long enough to listen and talk shit on you like they're still in fucking middle school.
