Yes I've climbed pyramids, raced on Grecian pavement, sullied my passport in an Amazon tributary, petted dolphins, chewed gum at the Singapore airport, and taken ricksaws through smoggy New Delhi streets.

I've made body prints on canvas, have had poetry published, danced naked at pagan rituals and have protested in D.C.

....I don't know why people tend to start their self-summaries off with things like that ( but the aforementioned things are all true, btw) It just seems like people are trying too hard on here.

Well, I'm just another post college wanderer, working at the pet store until I get my big break. I'm not your typical twenty-something around here: I don't travel very often anymore, I do not ride my bicycle and do not usually enjoy yoga very much (*gasp*)
I *do* shave my pits, however.

I tried polyamory a while back, and while I might want an open marriage someday, right now the prospect of having multiple relationships at the same time seems like too much work. However, I'm also not the jealous type, so tentatively, if you are already in a polyamorous relationship and have room for me in your life, then message away :)

I'd like to make myself sound more interesting and enticing, but the truth is that on any given night I am probably just hanging out with my sisters at home (we three still all live together, awww) or playing pokemon yellow on my phone on the couch.

Thinking about grad school and or a higher paying job. Writing letters to friends, poetry and a memoir. Generally playing with my parrot at home and with the birds at the store where I work.

Eating entire sticks of salami in time frames that are too small

Somewhat tubby girl walking her parrot in the park

My favorite movie of all time is Practical Magic with Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman

My favorite band used to be No Doubt, but I've grown up

My sisters and I have been watching a lot of RuPaul's Drag Race

and now that the Lword is on netflix I'm going to be pretty occupied re-watching that

Medication. Without it I'd be on the streets
Everything else I've done without at some point or another...

How I've gotten to be where I am and what my next move is. What the next blip of my memoir is going to be about. How my friends and former lovers are and what they're up to.

Honestly I don't think too much anymore about big issues or intellectual topics aside from what's in whatever book I'm reading at the moment. I'm intelligent, but kind of a simple gal at the same time

beat from work, but sometimes I still go out. You might find me at the New Parkway in downtown Oakland (come on, a six dollar movie and a pitcher of Boont and I'm there) Or getting trashed at this delicious restaurant/bar that's down the street from my house

I don't really go to too many shows or happenings, but that's something I'd like to change

I'm bipolar. (before you run screaming for the hills... although I do have a pretty gnarly form of the disorder that did screw up my life plan last year, my meds keep me entirely symptomless, so it really shouldn't be an issue if you're interested in dating me)

You should just message me. Even if all you have to say is "hey"
Because I can work with that.

Bonus if you're a little chubby and flawed and low maintenance like me
