Holy shit. Self summaries never really come out right with me. I'm 25 and I love to cuss. In fact, you can tell my mood from how much I'm cussing. If I'm feeling amiable, get ready for the sailor. It just means I like ya. But I'm also really good at knowing when to shut up. Senior citizens love me and think I'm a "nice young girl," and they're right for the most part. I know how to socialize with all sorts of people. A majority of the people I am close to are over 40, but I have friends of all ages. I love people and making friends. I consider my friends my family, and so we're pretty tight knit. But like I said, I'm always looking for more. I'm big into the holidays and having parties where I cook an enormous amount of food, and stuff everyone with goodness. I'm good at playing mommy. I wish I had a piano solely for the fact that my dinner parties could include everyone gathering around the piano with after dinner coffee/tea and singing a few songs.

I get along well with artsy types for the most part. A majority of my friends are writers. I love story people and thinking and feeling people. I tend to do well with crazy people who, despite being crazy, are loving, caring, and warm. If you're a cold motherfucker, chances are we're not going to meld. If you feel like you want to "embrace your youth," by spending your nights on college campuses and random people's houses getting wasted beyond health, like some "The Hold Steady" song, then stay the hell away from me (not to say there's anything wrong with The Hold Steady. They sound like Springsteen. Which is wonderful. More things should sound like Springsteen).

I say I'm a werewolf because I have borderline personality disorder. So I get moody and unstable a lot. Which I know is a big turn-off to a lot of people, so I'm being honest now. I have trust and abandonment issues. I had a bad upbringing and I'm just generally sensitive. But when I love, I love a ton. Maybe sometimes too much in other's eyes. I'm afraid of losing those I love because I consider them family. When they leave, I mourn them like a death.

So, just a warning.

I'm kind of in the ocean right now. I swim around and bump into life. Focusing on some me-time. I tell people I'm in a relationship with myself. Need to learn to truly love myself before I can get into another heavy relationship. To be very honest with everyone, the last one left me pretty broken, and the wound is still fresh.

I'm taking classes at the California Institute of the Arts in the character animation department. I've recently gotten into stop motion animation and am building my first puppet. I hope to get work as a character designer or puppet fabricator. Take a look at some of my work here: http://www.misscritter.com

Bringing people together. Giving my whole heart.

That I'm warm. Both in the sense that I'm alive, and that I'm loving.

I'm having an affair with an A-list celebrity. Sorry, can't say who.

you want to. I will get back to you, most likely, but it might take a while.

Please DON'T bother contacting me if:

- You have kids

- You use poor grammar ( i.e., replace 'you' with ‘u' and 'are' with ‘r’, use 'your' instead of 'you're', and that kind of bullshit).

- Are religious. Particularly Christian/Catholic. Even moreso if you're "serious" about it. I'm a skeptic and an atheist and we just wouldn't meld, believe you me.

- You consider yourself socially conservative. I believe in abortion, gay marriage, all that shit.

- If you spike your hair (unless in a mohawk). I know that sounds ridiculously shallow, but, I don’t know. I can never get over the spiked hair thing. When I was in middle school in the 90s, every guy spiked their hair. So when I see spiked hair, I think of middle school kids and guidos. Can't take it seriously.

- You are/were in the armed forces. Thanks for what you do but I'd prefer not to get involved.

- If you're a gamer. Unless it’s just an appreciation for old school, like Pac Man, Super Mario, etc. And the Wii is pretty okay, too.
