and I've always wanted to be in the circus

I'm recently divorced (almost a year ago) and I've reverted to selfish mode ... not that I don't like doing things for other people, because I most definitely do, I have an inherent desire to help people, BUT at the moment I come first.

I have a best friend, we live together, play together, work together , sleep together ... we spend all our free time together and we're a riot. You should check her out ... also know that if you're emailing both of us at the same time, that friends talk. shaleebryant

I have endless amounts of love in me ... seriously, if I get to know you and love you (even if just as a friend) I will go out of my way for you, and be a true and caring friend.

I'm a dinosaur 10 points if you guess what kind.

I have no filter between my brain and my mouth, and I have yet to meet someone capable of offending me. I'm incredibly sarcastic. I will always give you my honest opinion of things. Sometimes I say things that are grossly inappropriate. (I really love dead baby jokes)

Sometimes I think I may like myself a lot more than most normal people like themselves. This leads people to think that I have an ego, when really I just love who I am, love where I'm at and love where I'm going. Really, what's wrong with that? I think that everyone should think that they are as awesome as I think I am. :)

I love to be outside, and I love to be active. I go to the gym nearly everyday (I'm not as fit as I should be for how often I work out, mostly because I REALLY love to eat). I would much rather be hiking, biking, running or climbing then sitting in front of a television screen.

I love children. My favorite thing in the world is playing with my niece and nephew. Not sure if I'd like my own, but I know if I do have children they'll be the most rocking little shits EVER. Oh, and they'll also be adorable ... I have good genes.

I hate it when people have AWFUL grammar and spelling. If you write me and your grammar or spelling is ghastly, I probably will not write you back.

Oh yeah, if you would really like to make me angry then you should have absolutely no respect for my time. Seriously, I will hate you if you waste my time, make me late for something important or decide to not show up.

Respect for me is a big deal. If you respect me, I'll respect you. If you disrespect me, or anyone around me for that matter, I'll be your worst nightmare.

Writing the next rap smash hit, it's called "Gurl Whatchoo Smell Like"... it's bound to make me millions.

Joining the circus... okay, that's not completely true YET. I'm working on it. Currently taking aerial dance and trapeze classes, and next year I plan on attending the Circus Center in San Francisco to take part in their professional circus training program, or moving to Portland Oregon to be a resident with a professional aerial dance troupe.

I work part time as a photographer and as a Copy-Editor at SLUG magazine, and part time as a server/bartender at a bar downtown. I'm also artistically inclined and I paint a lot. I really enjoy acting and I do a bit of theater here and there.

Painting & Photography... trapeze & aerial tissu
Making fun of myself.
Thinking (knowing) I'm hilarious and laughing entirely too hard at my own jokes.

My laugh? Usually before people actually meet me, they hear me laughing from across the room. Maybe my killer dance moves. That, or my hair... or lack thereof. The fact that I'm in a unitard, or on a trapeze.

I like the book Godel, Escher and Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid by Douglas Hofstadter. I like the movies Requiem For a Dream, Equilibrium, The Science of Sleep and a lot of others. Music is great, I'm a big fan of all types... I tend to gravitate towards indie, folk, folk rock, rock and hip hop. As far as food goes, I love food, good food.

My camera, computer, art especially painting, acting, reading and laughing.
...dancing/ being active, let's just pretend that's only six.

Life, my place in this world, different cultures... things of that sort.

Doing whatever I like? It's probably not unusual to find me at a bar or show with friends. Possibly also not uncommon to find me longboarding or with a camera in hand.

I don't understand atheism, despite my attempts to try. I'm busy all the time, and I love it. I'm DIVORCED, I know crazy huh? I am probably clinically insane, but I hide it well. I have Fibromyalgia, it's a muscle disease and I'm in pain all the time, but I don't let it slow me down. I'm not particularly "tidy". My apartment is always clean, the dishes are always done, but I thrive off of a bit of chaos, and clutter doesn't bother me. I do however love my spring cleaning.

We actually have something in common and you're not just interested in sex or jacking off in front of a camera. Please do not message me if you're old enough to be my dad.
