About Me

i make funny faces and fall in love with everything a lot. i am excruciatingly shy sometimes. sitting on the floor is very honest. i like coloring books and vintage paper. music constantly saves my life. i am obsessed with crows and other birds (actually, i'm obsessed with animals in general). i am oftentimes very reclusive and in most social situations, i am usually more of an observer than a participator. i find other people to be very intriguing. men who sing make me endlessly happy. the sound of a banjo being tuned is one of the most comforting sounds in the world (also: accordion breaths). i like to stand on rocks or piles of snow by the ocean to feel the wind on my face. because it feels good to do that. the infinite possibilities in the world make me feel overwhelmed, in a really wonderful way. something big is coming.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

let's start with who i don't want to meet: horny/married/creepy men, or any combination of the three. i'm not interested in "casual dating" or being the other woman or your midlife crisis. i have enough crises on my own.

i would like to meet: troubadours, nomads, hermits, wanderers, story tellers, saw encouragers, accordionists, carolers, lamp lighters, secret keepers, cloud makers, nigh, major organ. and the adding machine.

more specifically, someone to sit on the floor to color and play board games with while listening to music, someone who understands the importance of not talking. and people who still believe in santa.

My Blog
