In a movie so crass & awkwardly cast, even I could be the star

Bio
"That is an act that is too often neglected. It means, 'to create ties'. "



Some things other people said that I really like:

"Human salvation lies in the hands of the creatively maladjusted." -Martin Luther King, Jr.

"In those whom I like, I can find no common denominator; in those whom I love I can: they all make me laugh." -W. H. Auden

"Life is a gift horse in my opinion." --J.D. Salinger

"I accept Chaos. I am not sure if it accepts me." --Bob Dylan

About me: Riddled with Virgoan/former Catholic anxiety, pasty, accident-prone, and, according to some intrusive stranger on the street, cultivating a big bald spot from all the hair dye I've used over the years (although [info]beelzebabe, from whom I can expect complete candour, swears this is false).

I failed every Presidential Fitness Test spectacularly. At 15 I made it my mission to recite every state nickname at will. You'd never know it to read my typo-riddled journal and comments, but I made not too bad a showing on the low-grade competitive spelling bee circuit back in the 'burbs. I was also a member of the "Saintly Singers" choir and a soloist in "Hey, God! Listen!" in junior high. This should all provide some context for my "Queen of the Nerds" icon.

P.S. That is me, being a "paid entertainer" in the gorilla suit.


[NOTE: Most of my entries are friends only, but I'm always open to making new friends if you can stomach a lot of solipsistic rambling, pop culture obsession, and half-baked political musings. I personally enjoy reading any or all of these, myself.]
