Sometimes I joke about being a 12-year-old boy trapped in a nearly-30-year-old woman's body. Science fiction, video games and comic books frequently occupy space in my mind.
I have a weird obsession with vampires and Halloween.
I love horror movies.
I like going to book stores and record shops, thrifting, reading, hiking, traveling, biking, exploring, playing Guitar Hero or Tetris (old school NES), meeting random people and driving around at night listening to music.
I dislike styrofoam, sand, seaweed, cardboard, closed-minded individuals and liars.
I meditate, exercise and try to eat healthy. I think happiness comes from taking care of yourself and respecting others. I try to act with love and kindness towards everyone.

I recently moved back to Wisconsin from Florida due to a job loss. I'm a freelance sample specialist and work with photo studios.
I'm living with family at the moment to pay off some debt and save up for my next endeavor. I'm a gypsy through and through, and am constantly looking for new opportunities and adventures.

I am the human map. It's kinda like i have a built-in GPS in my brain.
I'm also really good at paying attention to details that most people ignore.
I have an uncanny ability to mimic animal sounds.

Right now, my hair. Part of it is bright red.
I think people tend to notice that I am open and easy to talk to.
Also, my tattoos tend to stand out.

Well, I'm filling this out on a Friday night - which would suggest that I stay at home and surf the interwebs. However, I am at a friend's house waiting for her to get ready so we can go to Comet for food and then to Mad Planet for 80s night. But sometimes I do stay home and play with my pet rats. :]~

I'm currently pursuing a spiritual path.
I am celibate and really meant it when I checked the boxes stating that I am only looking for friends and pen pals.

...you love MUSE.
or if you feel like it :]
