About Me

I am, in short, genetically engineered to live in a bog in the south of Ireland.I Lived in NYC for a little while, then Montreal plus a short stint in London and would love to spend more time living in other places as well. I have a hopeless addiction to coffee and a recently dropped habit of camel filters...*sigh*... I jog now. Though I happily say I have not yet given up second-hand smoking as I have a fascination with hole-in-the-wall type pubs and bars. Guinness DOES in fact give me strength. I've been writing awful yet passionate poetry and short stories since I was 15 years old. I play a mean synthesiser and sing like a girl... I'm learning how to play the guitar at the moment- Buddy Holly would be proud so far. I sketch and speak in silly voices(Will work for food,voice-overs) as well as telling very long and animated stories at coffee shops. My favorite color is 'Cerulean' ("Blue" to all you non-crayola kids who grew up without excitement) and I cannot stop watching space-week on the science channel... I am a geek. I've worked as a barista serving fine espresso and ridiculously annoying blended drinks for nearly six years and am looking forward to finishing school, or somehow becoming famous... which ever comes first... I enjoy sleeping far too much to end up in Medical School. One day, I aspire to owning a DeLorean... and a tuxedo with outrageously long tails... Maybe I'll get one for my wedding... *wink*

My Interests

Synthesizers, Coffee, vintage guitars,Pianos, The Florida Gators, World-Cup, Beach-going, Fishing,the irish, guinness,Murphy's, Stoli Martinis shaken not stirred, pool, chess, books, pin-up girls, the 1940s/50s. Pompadours,cafes, greasy diners late at night, Darts, Warm baguettes, cheap red wine, dressing up and not really looking right in black turtle-necks, Autumn time, the roaring twenties in paris, delay pedals with a crap-ton of reverb, sleezy lounge music and cursing like a sailor all while being a refined gentleman.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who won't hold my love for high fructose corn syrup against me and would like to start a kick-ass band that sounds... new. (I have already met and written haikus with Andy Rourke.) If you would like to help me obtain my DeLorean and/or Tux with ridiculously long tails, please make a donation! (TRY IT! e-bumming is the latest rage)
What band from the 80s are you?
You're all about the music. Not too incredibly mainstream, but not too incredibly underground. It's awfully hard for anyone to oppose you, seeing as how you rule.
