Travel, sewing, history, art and costume design. Opera, classical music and the theatre. I love Myspace because I can find so much creativity to enjoy: Art, expression in all it's forms and the amazing variety of music! It is also important to help my friends achieve their goals and they help me with mine. But more than anything, I love to have fun! Love, love, love to dance! Hope to go to New Orleans for Halloween again, picnics at Hollywood Forever Cemetary, dinner parties and get togethers as well as costume events.
Someday I will find the man brave enough to take me as I am. But not today. Right now I have no room for a man in my life. Getting over all past hurts so I can start with a clean slate. If you try to get involved with me right now I will cut you into little pieces and feed you to the fishes. So don't even try!
However, you may benefit greatly from being my friend, which is something I welcome.
Music
Music, yes. I love music. Classical is what I listen to most of the time. I tool around Myspace looking for interesting things to listen to and I enjoy being turned on to anything that is not all over the airwaves. And, anything I can dance to. Right now IAMX and Among the Weeds are two of my favorites. And the guitar playing of someone named Vince.
Movies
Anything that requires a brain to understand and/or movies with really good costumes.
Television
I don't watch much TV aside from CNN in hotel rooms mainly because I don't have one. I have more important things to do.
Books
I enjoy reading. I am always reading for personal development and to continue developing my abilities. There is always a stack of books by the bed awaiting my attention. I read a lot! Also all the works by Abraham-Hicks on the Laws of Attraction. Just finished an amazing saga called Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts which had me enthralled for days. Some other recent reads: The Holographic Universe by Michael Talbot. A Trial of Generals by Lawrence Taylor who is also a friend of mine. The Dancing Wu Li Masters - An Overview of the New Physics by Gary Zukav. I tend to eat books, can devour them in no time. If you have any suggestions for books that I may enjoy, your suggestions would be greatly welcome.
Heroes
My Grandfather for his courage and vision, Voltaire for being such a proliferous artist. Roman Dirge for the same reasons and because he's cute. Madam le Goth for what she has managed to achieve having not known how to sew when she started and now sought all over the world! All those so called Freaks that walk the streets looking so amazingly beautiful in their Gothic finery, torn clothes or liberty spikes. They inspire me and the rest of the fashion world. Anyone who wants to make a difference in the worlds and takes the action to do it!

It is written in the Talmud, “Whosoever saves a life has saved the world entire” [Sanhedrin 4:8 (37a)].
What, then, can be said of a man whose life work is directly responsible for abating world hunger, and saving the lives of ONE BILLION?
Such a man was Norman Borlaug (March 25, 1914 – September 12, 2009), Father of the Green Revolution.
Combining a powerful intellect, vigorous determination, and unrelenting compassion, Norman Borlaug dedicated his entire life - until the end of his days - to spreading revolutionary agricultural innovations that have saved the world countless times over: a singular, unparalleled distinction.
It is one distinction he wished us, he challenged us to repeat again.
