Oy! Here goes nothing...
I'm funny, intelligent, charming, intuitive, sassy, sweet,
entertaining,
nerdy,
as the Kinks say, "a dedicated follower of fashion" ;).
Music is my passion and my
love. I have a full time job in the music industry (believe it or
not). I DJ around town at some great clubs/bars/galleries, etc. I
also have a fondness of going out and trying new places to eat and
drink. I spend way too much time online searching for music. I
don't mind staying in and watching movies or catching up on TV,
although I do fancy a night out on the town ever so often.
The Clash is my
favorite band and I had the great opportunity of meeting Joe
Strummer, my hero. I even have the signed 'Black Market Clash' 10"
to prove it! Hmm if you want to know more, I guess you'll have to
ask...
Working in the music biz by day. On my free time I look for cool
new bands along with discovering amazing old ones- online or live.
I also DJ usually once a week, sometimes twice if it's a good
week.
I try and travel as much as my time and finances allow, I love
taking weekend trips, whether it's just hopping in the car and
driving north, south, east and sometimes west (stupid ocean kinda
limits how far west I can drive though)haha
I have many goals & aspirations, which I am working on daily to
try and accomplish.
Being
honest.
Playing name that tune.
Putting songs to everyday answers like... what am I really good
at:
"Dancing with Myself" - Generation X/Billy Idol
"Look Back and Laugh" - Minor Threat
"The Clown" - Charles Mingus
"Listening Man" - The Bees

My smile and my eyes.

Food: Yes please! I love pretty much all types, really.
Italian, Mexican,
Argentine, Brazilian, Thai, Indian, Japanese, Moroccan, Russian,
Korean... if it's on a plate... I'll eat it. I'm pretty adventurous
that way.
I don't know if I'd classify my friends, family and cat as "things"
so I'll just go with the obvious:
- Laptop (sad I know)
- Burt's Bees Lip stuff
- LPs/music
- My hats
-
Red
Vines
- Vitamins (I learned this the hard way)
Besides, the obvious... LIFE... I'd say:
What song I'm going to play next. What's going on in
Brooklyn. Where I want to
visit next. Why is that person staring at me so weirdly? What? Am I
the first person you've seen dancing and singing aloud in a car? ;)
Ooot and aboot. Or home resting up for Saturday!
I'm lactose intolerant and it sucks. :(
Your the kind of girl who appreciates someone who will make you
laugh by using my cunning wit and intelligence. A girl that
appreciates a man who believes that
chivalry is not dead but in fact alive
and kicking. I'm extremely loyal and honest. I've been told that
I'm quite the catch.
