About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To find the perfect superhero cape.
ABOUT ME
I am the queen of useless facts. if i was ever on a trivia show... i would win. I'm not particularily brilliant unless wit and charm count for anything, but i know some things.
I like tea black as bootshine, woolen socks, the smell of wet leaves in the autumn, owls, mustaches, late night car rides, bicycles, rusty things, and hats. i talk to strangers and have a deep love of chocolate
I'm an out and about regular wild childe who likes to drink, adventure and take life day by day. Most of the time an extrovert but sometimes i need some downtime in the form of a movie,or smoking my hookah and listening to soulful 70's rock. you say 'inpromtu dance party' and i say ' i'm there'. I'm a really pleasant person but don't try to take advantage of my nice-ness because if you test me... i don't take shit from anyone.
PHILOSOPHY
Beer is good.
