Every day I wake up and make the decision to live life on my terms. I decide to be honest with myself, and kind to myself and to live the way I believe is right. Every day I wake up and decide to exercise my free will. Every day I wake up and decide to move forward. I am a work in progress.

I love my life. I love connecting with people in deep and real ways. I thrive on good interpersonal relationships.

I'm responsibly hedonistic and ethically slutty. (Meaning I'm ethical about my sluttiness not slutty with my ethics) =P

I'm a quirky gal from a small North Florida town. I grew up in a doublewide on nine lush wooded acres. My parents are both liberal hippies from Pennsylvania. As a child I would wander into the garden and snack on snow peas, cucumbers and banana peppers. I showered outside (yes we HAD indoor showers, but the outside one was way more enjoyable). My only neighbor was my grandmother. I never had a friend that lived within walking or biking distance. My dogs lived outside, as did the cats. I was barefoot until it got too cold, and naked until I got too old. I never had cable or video games so free time was spent playing make believe games with stuffed animals, My Little Ponies and Barbies. Sometimes I would read books, but I much preferred the more active past times. I spent most of my childhood and teenage years riding horses and dancing.

I mention this because when people know these things about me I suddenly make a lot more sense. =)

I'm very liberal and passionate about personal autonomy and freedom. I am emotionally intelligent and try hard to act responsibly with my own feelings and respect the feelings of others. I believe in logic, love, freedom, passion, experience and the inherent good in (most) people. I believe in giving people a chance to succeed, but not in doing the work for them. I believe in personal responsibly. I believe in giving what I can, and sometimes more than I can, in order enrich someone's life. I believe our wealth comes from the richness of our experience and our willingness to love, not our physical bounty. It hurts my heart to hear conservatives so concerned with their wealth and personal gain. It hurts my heart that there are those who can see individuals, families and communities absolutely devastated by poverty, disease, drug addiction and complete psychological undoing and not feel a sense of responsibility to make a difference. I'm saddened by the materialistic obsession, the equation of status with quantity and price of possessions.

I identify as polyamorous. I love many and will love many more. There is a lot of room in my heart for good people. My soul is a piece of a puzzle not a half of a whole. At the end of an honest life, I will have a complete puzzle. Some pieces fit well and even putting the puzzle back in the box for a while can't undo them. Some pieces fit together loosely and only work when there are other pieces around for support. Every single piece is important, every single piece is a part of the big picture. New pieces are very exciting indeed.

I grab life by the clit and rub.

I'm thriving socially.

I'm working on aligning my passions with my career.

I'm working on being the assertive, self-assured woman I want to be.

I'm periodically involved with the Gainesville Community Playhouse. "I can't, I have rehearsal" is a phrase I often use.

Multi-tasking, cock massages, dancing, parading about in my underwear, karaoke, paying attention, packing boxes of books, cooking, removing an orange peel in one piece, finding my way around, masturbating, friendship, shopping for music, kissing, sex, looking busy, planning trips, riding a horse, being truthful, crying, kindness, laughing, honesty, owning my mistakes, maintaining relationships, trusting, accepting, sleeping, being a partner, loving

I'm getting better at...

Letting go, living in the moment, believing in myself, guitar hero, cooking, reading slowly, sitting still, interpreting my partners, taking care of myself, attending to my finances, owning my good, saying no, relaxing, asking for what I need

I'm really BAD at...

Small talk, lying, pop culture trivia, word jumbles, boredom, hating, being late

That my inner monologue usually remains unchecked. I say what comes to mind. Sometimes it's a good thing, sometimes it's a bad thing.

That I am weird.

That I am always on beat. I'm a metronome.

That I am satisfied with life.

That I exude understanding.

That I'm a juke box. I have a song for every occasion and the music in my head is almost always stronger than whatever music is actually playing. I sing at random and on command. You won't even need a quarter.

That I plan my daily driving routes to avoid left hand turns whenever possible. They are so inefficient!

That my Atomic Mass is 4.234e+28

A. ISHMAEL, Story of B, My Ishmael, The Brothers K, Twilight of the Idols, Harry Potter x7, The Second Sex, Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister, Griffin and Sabine, Fingersmith, Ovenman, Ender's Game, The Holy

B. Adventures of Priscilla Queen of the Desert, Connie and Carla, Princess Bride, ANYTHING Monty Python, ANYTHING Mel Brooks, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Return to Me... the list goes on and on

C. This is a hard section for me. I love music so intensely that it pains me to put it into categories, to sort by genre. I could list names of some of the singer/songwriters, bands, orchestras, string quartets, etc. from my iPod, but that will only reveal that I have eclectic taste. The really important thing to know about me and music is that I'm highly influenced by rhythm and sound, tone and pitch. I love interesting time signatures and rhythms, quirky lyrics and pretty vocals. I endlessly appreciate good harmonies. I love getting lost in a score, feeling nothing except the mood of the music. I like when instruments traditionally associated with one form of music are used for something completely unexpected. I love when songs made famous in one genre are performed with a different spin in another musical dialect. When I'm feeling out of balance with the world, I can always find my center with the right music. Indigo Girls always bring me home. I actively seek out new music and love when my friends play new things for me. One of my favorite gifts to give and receive are compilation CDs. I am, however, pretty useless if you want to have a conversation about who's who in the Indie music scene, who's who in the rock n' roll scene... who's who in any scene really. I don't pay attention to such things. I like the notes, the sounds, the voices, the rhythms, and the words.

And now I list...

D. I don't just consume food, I ENJOY it. I revel in it. I love experimenting with interesting tastes, textures and combinations. I eat everything. I LOVE food. I love to cook and try new things. A few favorites are anything Asian (specifically Thai and Sushi), anything my wonderful friends and lovers cook for me (I'm surrounded by boys who can cook! I'm the luckiest girl in the world!), and anything I cook for myself (I'm a damn good cook, yo... who knew!).

I was browsing profiles and noticed that someone added a section E. for favorite musicals. Why didn't I think of that??? So now I shall steal that idea...

E. The Fantasticks, Wicked, Bat Boy The Musical, Cabaret, The Last Five Years, RENT, Spamalot, The Producers, Kiss Me Kate, The Full Monty, Parade, Songs for a New World, Aida, Children of Eden, A Chorus Line, Chicago, Hot Mikado, Jesus Christ Superstar: A Resurrection (the Indigo Girls version with Amy Ray playing Jesus... it's too fucking fabulous!), Ragtime, Urinetown

In no particular order....

Love - in all its wonderful forms.

Sex - in all its wonderful forms. *grin*

www.Pandora.com - because new delicious music is just sitting there, waiting to be listened to, waiting to touch my soul in some new and exciting way.

Theatre - because creativity needs a venue in which to blossom... and theatre is my soil.

DARK Chocolate - because it tastes damn good.

My awesome dog Abeni.

sex, the meaning of life, good communication, how to be the best partner I can be, sex, why I am the way that I am, Belgian beer and how it is able to taste so fucking good, German beer and how it is able to taste so fucking good, consensual non-monogamy, existential phenomena, how to start a movement in Responsible Hedonism, sexual ethics, how to be a good partner.

being loved.

snuggling.

totally rocking out.

Grabbing life by the clit and rubbing.

I'm a lot more sensitive than I may appear.

You appreciate developing and maintaining honest and open relationships. You appreciate strong, opinionated women. You aren’t going to begin the conversation with “hey… wanna fuck?” You are open to the concept of consensual non-monogamy. You like to chat (don’t get me wrong, long rambling e-mail messages are awesome… but I’m much more adept and comfortable in real time conversation). You can appreciate weird conversational tangents. You are more interested in the people around you than in the lives of celebrities. Being silly is a desirable past time.
