Concerts, music, satire, art, audio, intelligence, politics, debunking religion. I love radio. It is my passion, where my heart is...I love performing. Having an audience...is awesome.

Kristen Bowie Oh Anvil, I'm 5 minutes in and already hooked. Posted 55 minutes ago from Twitter view more
About me: Pretty much, I'm just a sarcastic girl that is carving her path in this world. One tiny rock at a time.
My little smooshed face dog is the love of my life. <3
I call my mom Dude.
I say rad waaaaaaaaay too much...but I'm bringing it back. (Even though my dick head friends laugh at me)
I hope that someday, I can buy an island and take over the world.
I'm one of the few girls that exist...anywhere...that hate malls. But especially Lloyd Center.
It's quite embarrassing how far behind I've fallen on current events. Damned video games. >:0
If I'm telling you a story that sounds fairly amazing and hard to believe, it really happened. 90% of it happened the way I'm telling it.
I may love the guy I'm dating, but I will hit on a midget if left alone with the wee one for long.
I'm a vegetarian, but you can't gross me out with your gross hedonistic meat eating. I'll just live longer. :)
I will drink more whiskey than you. Unless you're a lush, 400 lbs, and have a stomach of steel.
Radio is an obsession of mine. Seriously. I work....more than anyone should humanly work. And I couldn't be happier.
OCD rules. Especially when it's with straw papers. Long story.
I carry around an electronic dictionary. And, I have a word of the day...for myself....every day.
Finally, 42! (If you're geeky-cool, you'll get this. If not, you're just lame sauce. )
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone who knows how much I would have to spend to get an ice sculpture of Bender from Futurama.
Any existing pirates, duh! I'd like to meet someone who can tell the difference between urine and a real beer (stay away you budweiser drinkin rednecks). Not that I have anything against rednecks....but boy do I hate that beer.
I want to meet strong personalities with a creative flair. Someone who can look at a t-shirt and see a skirt. Someone who can see a partially funny movie drop and turn it into a drop of golden audio. Musicians, painters, cartoonists, graphic designers, radio people, actors...you name it. I met William Hurt once...and was able to turn what everyone else thought was a self-centered prick into someone quite enjoyable who seemed a little sad. Not everything is was it seems on the outside, it may take a little work...and god damn, that work is worth it.
People who know everything that they want, because I sure as hell don't. Maybe you can tell me how to do it.
Just want to give a heads up on a huge show we're having at Pepper's in Vancouver, WA on September 12th. Try to make it out to this one, it should be amazing: Oceans of Red (on tour from Spokane, featuring former members of Five Foot Thick), Bring Me Solace and Last Stand. ALL AGES, $5 at the door. See you there!
Ha, thanks! I is honored. I will definitely give you a buzz/text when I am in your neighborhood. And yes...speaking of that, I recently got a new phone and don't yet have your new digits! Do ya still have mine?
Ha, word. I shall add ya! Also...it's been AGES since we hung out! Are you ever down in Salem? Or next time I'm up that way we should get coffee or sumthin'.
Calling all Wombstretcha fans: Show this Sunday at the Astoria in Eugene, Oregon. Doors open at 8PM and it's $3 to get in. Come on, even you cheapskate college kids can afford this one! Show up!
Come out and just enjoy the show, or jump in and participate (liquid courage available at the bar!). Do you or your friends have something to share with us?
