life and living it. i heart the smell of the atlantic and grapefruit and avocado salads. there is a particular type of weather, just short of fog, but heavier than mist where the world swims and 'tendrils' becomes a way of describing your day. i feel at home there. peeling is a favorite pastime of mine. skin, fruit, layers, and levels. i think that uncomfortable is important and try to spend some time there. my life is made of extremes, but i've tried to not be so extreme about it. reading, writing, the great outdoors, costumes, travel, hairdying, mohawks, music except for new country and ballads, cigarettes with coffee, late night talks, doing nothing on a nice day, debauchery, laughing til it hurts like hell, getting fired up about something that's worth it, meditation, spirituality, being with friends, being alone, and the list goes on and on and on.... to tell you about me would be to tell you of what i interest and what interests me. little things, simple things. i spent a long while yesterday watching ants carry a leaf. my favorite season is the fall on the eastcoast and summer on the west. i think i would like spring in ireland and summer in the greek isles. my fingers often find their way to my scars and i like the smell of burnt cheese. sometimes i don't know the difference between thought and deed, what i dreamt and what i meant. i don't know if i mind. my voice is big and i really laugh. on sundays i make a big breakfast with my girls, listen to music with the soles of my feet, and drink strong coffee under the trees. i like to knit, but i'm not that good. fire dancing and belly dancing seem like a good way to spend some time. not a hippy, but inclined towards organics. believer in change and cranky procrastinator. about me. by the time you read this it may no longer be true.
