I am here for Friends

About Me

My friends think I'm sweet and funny and cute but with a bit of an edge. Imagine a fuzzy little ball of hate if you will.I love my dog Bailey who looks like a bear, and my cats Bonnie and Elisabeth aka Little, named after the Counting Crows song "Goodnight Elisabeth". Bonnie was pulled from a storm drain during Hurricane Bonnie, so she's a little shy, but deep down inside, she wants to be friends.I work at PETA, actually for peta2, and I write a lot of features for peta2.com so if you wanna know where to get vegan shoes, need cruelty-free makeup tips, want to know what vegans eat, or need celeb info I'm your girl. You should check out my blog .
