About me: Pimp your space with these badass little links:
............................................................................................................................................................................................
A friend of mine once told me that she didn't trust anyone to who didn't let themselves feel the full spectrum of emotions; those people who tiptoe around the puddles for fear of getting their nice shoes wet. I agree with her... and I wear galoshes.
................................................................................................................................................................................................
Fuck my life! This is creepy. And awesome. Which makes it creepily awesome, if my math is right. Some of the ways in which I'm unstable, neatly packaged for gross consumerism. Feel free to defriend me based on these results, I won't hold it against you...

My best qualities:
Ability to laugh (loudly) at almost anything; endless empathy; ability not to fret about the little things and just go with the flow.
My favorite numbers:
52, 1, 338
Things that make me happy:
The tingly feeling you get from peppermint; watching summer thunderstorms from the shelter of a porch; late night alcohol-infused conversations about life, love and philosophy; when cats do that kneading thing and the rough feeling of their tongues; being introduced to new music, books, art, and ideas; random compliments from strangers that don't require a follow-up; the warmth of clothes that just came out of the dryer; laughing so hard I cry; when dogs fall asleep on your lap, reading a good book on an autumn afternoon
My strange quirks:
I wash fruit with washing up liquid/dish soap; I laugh and smile inappropriately when I'm nervous; I am constantly afraid that I'm being a bother or a burden, and so I don't call people if they don't call me first, nor approach people unless they've made the first move, I compensate for paralysing shyness with volume and questionable decisions on a frequent basis
My hidden talents:
HTML code, singing, baking
My irrational fears:
Bees, wasps, other things that fly and sting, being uninformed about necessary things, embarrassment, missing opportunities, not being liked
My overwhelming failures:
Driving, painting my nails, keeping in contact, taking decent pictures, pathetic romanticism and sappiness which I pretend to eschew, impulse control, sound judgement
Things that are essential to my happiness and continued existence:
Mascara, "Skinny Legs and All" by Tom Robbins, "Lost", elderflower liquer, herbed goat cheese, Saltines, cinnamon ice cream, jeans, ballet flats, blossom honey, my iPod, my awesomely creepy and creepily awesome friends
My vices:
Intellectually and culturally intelligent artistic men; cigarettes; alcohol, excluding tequila; sexy shoes/CFMs; shopping; good food; anything that sounds poetic or looks pretty; disenfranchised animals
My goals:
Live life as passionately as possible; read with the abandon of a starved man at a buffet; graduate in English and Anthropology and then go to grad school somewhere that has a forensics program; learn a dying language; fall in love at least once a day; make and appreciate art; to be a resource, cohort, support or simply someone to share the burden to anyone who needs it; get tattooed; learn how to do the lipstick trick Molly Ringwald does in "The Breakfast Club"
An idea that is applicable to my life at this current crossroad:
A girl from Nowhere can call Anywhere her home.

Angelina Jolie,
HEy Gia, Gia pumpkin eater, what happened you don't send me comments anymore do you not like me anymore... haha... hope ur trip in europe is swell...haha later, J
haha, i totally am! i was telling my mom about how it was so cool that i got to hold a dog's foot in sx today while the dr excised a nasty growth and she was totally grossed out...also the dr made an incision at one point that severed a small vessel and blood sprayed at me, pretty funny :)
i would if i could! he is so HOT! not sure if i'm going anymore though, there is some stuff going on with chase that makes me not want to go...took him in for bloody stools, dr did a rectal and found a lump in his rectum :( we did xrays and it just looks weird. i'm so stressed i wouldn't even enjoy the show if i went...still contemplating going though.
4 sho love. thanks for the words, thoughts and encouragement. and super uber ups and props on the trip du jour. sounds awesome, i got that jealous blood coursing through me thinking of hash and the red light district in the Dam. well...things are good on this side of the pond. im building a new glass distribution company in a secret location. shhhh. lets be in touch and have drinks and such.
dude! when are you going to be online so i can test out the skype thingy?!?! i know, you are super busy with school...but seriously, let me know so we can chat and you can see the boys! i'm excited to try it. miss you tons!
Hi, I am doing fine how about yourself? Thanks for your response to my silly questions... Grexican that's funny. That's a great latin combination. You kind of look like this italian girl Sabrina that I used to know she also had very pretty eyes :) That was why I asked you what nationality you were and also I was wondering why your were drinking amaretto, but nevermind. So hey, we might go out to Arizona to play a show would you come out to see us if we played out there. The band and I were talking about doing a national tour like sometime this year... I would love meet u.
You must have some italian blood in your heritage because you like amaretto. That is just my assumption but I could be wrong... Sorry you are homesick, well you only have a few months until the summer and that is when you come back to states right, or has your plans changed?
Oh, I forgot to thank you for the tip on where to find that pic I got it thanks! I was wondering Gia, is that you on the left or the right of your profile picture?
Ummm Ameretto...I am thinking that's a good with a canoli. Hey where did you find that banksy picture on ur page? That is so visually cool. Was that a building you passed by and snapped some pictures or what? I want that picture...haha. Hope you trip to england is going well. - Joe
Nice website. Things are good and you? Also, checkout the books "The Power of Now" and "A New Earth" by Eckhart Tolle. I'm reading these books for the third go around.
that makes two of us! although i've been good recently...my problem is answering the texts i get afterhours when i shouldn't! of course that happens once every blue moon, so it's not too often these days! good luck!
haha, i saw that blog!! very funny stuff....i hope he didn't read it either, for your sake! drunk texting is a part of our lives, we just have to accept that and be ok with the embarrassment that follows! :D
