I should have been born 25 years before I was, even though that would make me 55 and I hate the idea of getting older. I get a paycheck being a marketing assistant, but I fancy myself a writer and a poet. I inexplicably and unforgivably love My Chemical Romance. You won't catch me being fake, and for the most part I expect the same for people around me (except drag queens, because that is part of the allure, isn't it?). I will almost always be nice to you, and you will probably like me even if you don't want to.

Writing, reading, music, movies. My Chemical Romance. Counter-culture, randomness, activists and anti-status. Service, charity, community projects. Vegetarianism, Feminism, Christianity, Hippies and Yippies. Web design, graphic design, Photoshopping. Drag queens, guinea pigs, shoes, chocolate. Mondegreens, engrish and updating my internet spaces.
