I am darkly-funny, provocative, and wicked-smart.

My Self-Summary

I know where the secret trap door is. I hate the word NO. I lead a charmed life, fraught with trials and dramatic plot twists. But I have this feeling that it'll all work out in the end.
I am one of the best friends anyone could have. I am very self-aware, and mostly satisfied with working on things as i go, without over-stressing it. But I think too much anyway.I have many friends- most are creative and artistic, but I prefer not to date in my intimate circle.
I talk to strangers. I talk to myself. I eavesdrop. But i don't snoop. Real intimacy is something rare and special. I don't play headgames. Life's too short to lie. My truths are better than most lies anyway.
I have 3 documented secret superpowers.
My cat is teaching me how to take naps. i know what i am looking for, but i don't know what form it will take. I am open to possibilities.

What I’m doing with my life

I'm an artist, writer, & sometimes a consultant. I play with fire. I like working on mechanical projects. I love power tools... cutting & welding metal. I DeeJay at a local radio station - i LOVE music. Almost all kinds. I ride motorcycles. And horses. I love skiing and rollerblading and dancing.
I spend a lot of time taking care of my friends, sweeping up after the bird, snuggling the kitteh, trying to keep the rain from coming in on my closet, making ends meet, and laughing... at all of it.

I’m really good at

Photoshoppery, telling stories, writing, snogging, reading, smooching, drawing, deejaying on KFJC 89.7 FM, corrupting youth, Tarot, blowing shit up and global gallivanting.
I am NOT good at sitting still.

The first things people usually notice about me

My sense of humour. My hair (it's usually streaked with purple or fuchsia or something)

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

SNARF! now i can't type it because there is Crystal Light all over the keyboard... oh god like WHICH thing? oh now that's an evening's conversation right there... you better have some stuff to dish too!

You should message me if

you grok this:

“Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, champagne in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming “WOO HOO what a ride!”

"Live every second as if your ASS Is on FIRE!"

or

"To say yes to one instant is to say yes to all existence."
Professor, Waking Life

My favorite professor in college was Bob Solomon. He is the Existentialist professor in the beginning of Waking Life.
