Jennie Orphan

I am a Magic Pony, goddamnit.

About Me

I am a native So Cal kid born as Jennifer Nicole in November of 1981. This means that when giving directions I refer to freeways as "The 101" or "The 5", I have two of the most popular names of the 80’s, and I am a Scorpio. This also means that I am a crazy ass driver, I often go by pseudonyms, and astrologically speaking I am the sexpot of the Zodiac. (Okay, so I have no real evidence for that last statement.)
Beyond these few basic facts the rest of my identity is fluid. That is not to say that I don’t know who I am. It just means I am reluctant to label myself with society’s pre-conceived notions. I am very much a “truth is relative” kind of girl.
I am also a fairly outgoing, independent individual with an easy smile. (No, I am not implying that I have a slutty mouth. Dirt Bag). I have been labeled as a party girl and it is hard for me to refute this claim. I do enjoy the nightlife. Those closest to me can attest, however, that even when I have a beer in my hand I am often lost deep within my head.
Secret Aspirations/Life Goals include: go-go dancer, rock star, race car driver, writer/author, Supreme Court Justice, senator, Nobel Peace Prize winner, professor (with bad hair and lots of cats), and world traveler.Read my VisualDNA ™ Get your own VisualDNA™I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

I'd like to meet:

Free spirits and open minded people who can laugh at themselves out loud. Call me an elitist snob but I believe that martinis and sushi relate to life experience. I am not saying you have to enjoy the things I enjoy or believe as I believe, but at least be open to new things, ideas, and experiences. Also if you can’t laugh at yourself on occasion you should be in therapy.

Across The Street

Could you at least wait until I have my morning caffeine fix before you proposition me?

It is a rare morning where I wake up and think "I MUST have caffeine to get through this day".  This morning was one of those mornings.  Not surprising since last night was filled with insom...
