I am ridiculous, charming, and hella awkward.

My Self-Summary

Hmm, i really hate writing these profile essays. They ask for them on every site, and every time i'm like, "UGH. FINE. what am i like? ....orrrrrr, what kind of things do i do, or like? BLAH. EVERYTHING. NOTHING. ....ugh, i'll do this later."

i'm a realist, and an existentialist, but i'm still actively curious and excitable about almost everything around me. i am a humanist and a hedonist: i tend to not do things unless i like them, and if i stop liking it, i'll stop doing it (smoking is a good example of this.) i'm cynical, but i don't take myself too seriously. i've studied fashion design, but there is no way in hell i am moving to L.A. i get most of my clothes from the street or other people. i am intensely ridiculous at times.

What I’m doing with my life

i sew things. i knit objects. i climb on rocks. i ride on bicycles. i read books. i make coffee (i work at Peets.) i watch cartoons. i want to own kitties, but instead i just live vicariously through other people's pets.

i'm also dating and living with a lovely boy named ticklish_squid, in an open relationship. we're not polyamorous, so uhm, if you're looking for something that would eventually be serious, you might want to look elsewhere? i'm just looking for someone to have fun with, be it sexy fun or silly fun. you may or may not choose to notice that we are both bisexual.. and i'm sure you can draw your own conclusions with that.

The first things people usually notice about me

i have kind of ridiculous haircuts. i also am pretty much always laughing.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

i love nearly anything made out of carbohydrates. fruit, bread, pasta, potatoes, whiskey, FUCK YES. i'm not a big fan of meat, but i am not a vegetarian.

some of my favorite authors include Bret Easton Ellis, Banana Yoshimoto, Chuck Palahniuk, Isaac Asimov, Douglas Adams, Oscar Wilde, Warren Ellis (or, Wozzle Ezzle as he is also known) and Edward Gorey.

i like watching movies, but i am one of those people that you get very frustrated talking to because i am always responding to your favorite, most life-altering classic movies with "oh, i've never heard of that" or "never seen it." i'm working on fixing this. some movies that i HAVE seen (and do love) are I <3 Huckabees, Amelie, Little Miss Sunshine, Short Bus, High Fidelity, Stroszek, the Royal Tenenbaums, Perfume, and some other things, i guess.

i love nearly any music that includes synthesizers but also some other things. Accordions, brass bands, and musical saws will also make me swoon. By genre i guess you could say that my favorites are post-punk (like Siouxsie and the Banshees, the Cure, and Joy Division), new wave (like Altered Images, Gary Numan, and New Order), industrial (like Ohgr, Babyland, and KMFDM), electro (like Daft Punk, Justice, and RJD2), recent weird indie folk (like Iron and Wine, Neutral Milk Hotel, and Band of Horses), and swing music (pretty self explanatory). i could keep going, but that's pretty boring. i'm not just acting a cop-out by saying "i like all kinds of music."

I spend a lot of time thinking about

the things that i think about, and the ways in which i think about them.

On a typical Friday night I am

probably not doing much, or maybe working a closing shift. i don't have a 9-5 job, so that leads to not really placing any special sort of emphasis on "friday nights."

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

sometimes i think i would be happier with a penis because probably 85% of the men that i find attractive are gay in some capacity. (or all capacities,, ugh.) plus, i'm something of a tomboy, and i think girls are really pretty (and i bet fucking them with something that i could feel would be SO FUN) and etcetera, etcetera. but, i really like having a vagina, it's a lot of fun and i put it to good use, so i'm pretty set on keeping it.

You should message me if

you want to. let's read comic books and eat pie and then maybe make out a little (or alot?)
