I am a crack-whore!, bookish, and open-minded.
My Self-Summary
Life, for me, is about having fun. If you're not smiling, something
needs to change. I'm not saying it's wrong to be upset or
concerned, just that it's not a state to live in. I find lots of
things in life that are uplifting, or just plain ridiculously
funny. I'm stealing this quote (and I'm not even going to get it
right, or give it credit...tell me if you know who it is!), but
human beings are so amazing that, in such an interesting world,
they have managed to invent boredom. Given that, I don't bore
easily; I always find something to engage in, even if it's in my
own mind.
What I’m doing with my life
I am a scenic carpenter, but I'm really unsure if this is what I
want to do with my life. I think I'll head back to school soon,
either to pursue
scenic design,
playwrighting,
law, or
nursing. I'd also really like to be an
editor or
The
Playboy of the Western World.
I’m really good at
Does reading count? I am very good at being clumsy...until I've had
too much to drink; then I could sachet my way across a tightrope in
eight inch heels.
I also love mixed media art, and while I would not say that I am
good at it, I try. I'm also a fairly good scenic artist; nobody can
carve and paint foam like this guy.
The first things people usually notice about me
Definitely my laugh; it's a head-turner for sure. People who know
me, use it as a homing device; people who don't, wonder where the
ambulance is. Otherwise, my distinctive over-pronunciation of p's,
b's, and t's gets commented on often. Oh, and that I'm blonde now!
Or that I'm wearing multiple shades of green.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Books: I like SciFi/Fantasy a lot. But I'll read just about
anything, besides romance novels. I'm chipping my way through a
biology textbook about sexual diversity in nature right now, but
also enjoying Les Liasons Dangereuses. I enjoy science fiction and
fantasy, most LGBTQPIA literature, Dan Savage and Gregory MaGuire
(The Kid and Son of a Witch are two of my favorite books), Mary
Renault and Harry Potter, and all sorts of sordid plays.
Movies: Again, I like things with a fantastic twist to them; be
that Willow to District 9. I really enjoy the tv series Bones; I
really wish I could be Temperance Brennan!
Music: A little bit of everything, although my Pandora play list is
mostly dance music...Cascada, Lady Gaga, 3Oh3!...I have their song
"Don't Trust Me" stuck in my head all the time. That, and "Total
Eclipse of the Heart"! My essentials are Cake, Queen, and Kelly
Clarkson.
Food: Meh, it's just food. I mean, I enjoy it, but it's not
something that dominates my thoughts.
The six things I could never do without
Well, friends and family of course. And all those things essential
to physical existence. Happiness and laughter. The internet, to be
shallow. Cigs and booze, to be shallower. And lastly, stimulation.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
What to do next: be that party, work, take a shower, find my pants,
or call my mother, I spend life usually thinking into the future,
albeit short-term. I don't dwell on the past, and sometimes I
disengage from the present, and I don't like to plan too far ahead;
I like to take life as it comes, and explore new experiences as
they come.
On a typical Friday night I am
Either going to the bar or chilling with my roommate; it depends on
the kind of week I've had. But usually the former!
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
If Adam West proposed to me today, I would say yes. No questions
asked. Especially if we could get married in the Batcave. Yep, I
think that was the first fantasy I ever had.
You should message me if
You are not crazy. Or at least, if you are not scary-crazy.
