"You are who you pretend to be, so you better pretend to be someone you can live with" -Xena, Warrior Princess

I'm going to put this at the very top of my profile so there are no misunderstandings: I am Polyamorous [adjective]:Pertaining to participation in multiple and simultaneous loving or sexual relationships.
I am very happily married and I love my husband Imashypuppy ; but I also believe that the heart is capable of an infinite amount of love and to limit that is to limit myself. I am not looking for casual sex or one night stands here. I am looking to make connections with other people who can enrich my life and make me a better person and who I can do the same for in return.

*School- After taking a short break to focus on other aspects of my life I'm returning to school this fall, though the path I was on before has changed a bit. My goal will always be to seek out and share beauty with others but the way i'll get there is constantly changing. And that's half the fun, right?

*Work- Youth director in an after school program. When i'm not doing that I'm working as an independent massage therapist, contracting to various chiropractic clinics and going to people's houses.

giving back rubs and I've been told I make a good pillow...
I'm not a super star but i love to sing, mostly opera/classical and jazz so if random outbursts of song annoy you turn back now! i'm also doodling constantly; if i have a pen but no paper i will use the next available surface, usually the closest hand or arm :P

A lot of people find me intimidating, I'm quiet when I don't know the people I'm around but once I warm up I rarely censor myself; my volume button is also broken so when I get really excited about something I can get kind of loud. Kisses and duct tape are usually the only way to shut me up ;)

Books: Anita Blake series, The Blue Sword (my favorite book, though I love all of McKinley's writings), Candide, Lord of the Flies, A Child Called 'It', anything by Tamora Peirce, Ellen Kushner, or Patrica Briggs. I'm also a fan of manga/manwa. this is just what comes to mind and doesn't begin to touch my book collection.

movies/shows: Dante's Peak, Minority Report, Bringing up Baby, Arsenic and Old Lace, Howl's Moving Castle, Drawn Together, Big Bang Theory, Scrubs, Grimm, Once Upon a Time, The Help, MUPPETS!, Date Night, My Name is Khan, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Rocky Horror Picture show, Rent, Spamalot, Ragtime, Page Turner, The Orphanage, Fiddler on the Roof, Pan's Labyrinth, Repo Man.... if it has blood, gore, nudity, and witty musical numbers I will probably love it.

music: well right now my favorite song is Birds of a Feather by the Civil Wars but as for musicians in general: Tim Minchin (this guy is awesome!!) Nightwish!!![Nine Inch Nails, Evanescence, The Used, Adele, Ilyaimy, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, The Cure, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Nat King Cole, Peggy Lee, No Doubt, Pink, Celtic Woman, Josh Groban, Andre Bocelli, Kingston Trio, T.M. Revolution, Hyde, Mana, L'Arc~en~Ciel, anything composed by Yoko Kanno or Yuki Kajiura, and Gackt. I like just about any type of music except for country and even that has a few exceptions.

Food: any type of Thai or Indian food, Mexican food, Italian food, rice, cilantro (an herb technically, but I eat it on just about anything), and pretty much any type of sea food. Also chai tea, thai tea, bubble tea....mmm...tea

1. Drawing supplies (even if it’s a rock and a stick, I must be able to draw!!! I’d go crazy if I couldn’t!)

2. Music (I honestly don't know what I would do if I ever lost the music. probably cease to exist.)

3. Books

4.my towel

5. Shampoo (there's nothing worse than dirty hair. Really. Go ahead and string me up by my toenails, just let me wash my hair once a day!)

6. Internet (ok, I could probably live without it, but I love being able to talk with new people from across the world)

why I don't like people (not as individuals, but as a whole),sleep, why I desperately want to live in Washington but seem to find the most compatible matches in California :/, men, food, music, the pros and cons of ruling the world, why I like men more than woman (a.k.a. why am I not a lesbian), how much cooler life would be if we lived in Laurell K. Hamilton’s world, different ways I could kill someone with a blade of grass or other usually harmless object, why people seem to think I'm scary and not to be trusted with sharp objects (or matches...), the meaning of life (really, I do), and...Oh, yeah, sex. But I really doubt I'd want you to help me with that, so stop asking. Really; I mean it. Stop.

Typical? Pfft, typical is boring...

My tastes tend to run towards the dark and macabre, some might even say "gothic"... but I love to collect rubber ducks! So shining like stars in a night sky they are shrew randomly about my bedroom and can be found in odd places throughout the house. If you ever hang out with me for long periods of time, don't be surprised if they follow you home like a lemon-yellow plague =)
Oh, and i'm not a big fan of my username. I picked it when i was 17 (yeah, yeah, naughty me lying about my age) and i have no idea what i was thinking. A more suitable username would be Coconutofdoom, or Wonderball, or even BitchPlease!

If you're good at sharing

If you like board games

If you're really tall and/or you have long hair. Though Short people with really long hair are awesome too... have I mentioned I'm a long-hair advocate who will try to convince almost everybody to grow their hair out? I love having something to play with and it's just so pretty... though strangely, I also love a guy who can pull off the bald look (ala Yul Brynner)... haha :P I guess I just really like extremes.

If you would like a new friend, seriously. I know looking for friends on a dating website doesn't usually work, but friendship is a very important corner stone to any relationship whether it stays there or evolves into something more.

If you can appreciate the darker side of life

If you are a little bit kinky (or a lot ;)

If you don't mind me singing at random times and in fact wouldn't mind singing a cheesy duet and creating sweet harmonies with me :P

If you want to travel the world (and are looking for a partner in crime =)

Don't have Anatidaephobia (or you do and you would like to try and overcome your fear)

You like short, cuddly, affectionate, slightly scary chicks

And really, think of what you could be missing out on by NOT messaging me! We could be soul mates tied by that red string of fate ^.^ If nothing else, we could be awesome friends- or even the perfect adversaries :D Common! Let’s find out!
