Acting as a transcendent journey. Exploring people. Talking about sex, in graphic detail, with everyone. Expressive punctuation, commas! -," The why's behind why people like what they like and do what they do. Trivialities. Listening. Picking up silly tricks like tying cherry stems into knots and putting my feet behind my head. Smooching. Vegan cuisine. Kink. Gender benders. Insisting my beliefs aren't really all that radical, it's just that the world has wondered off to the right. Revolution. Revo Lution. Transendance through physical pain and submission. The bizarre, the extreme, the politically and socially conscious. Circus and clowning. Commedia del'Arte.
Music
I am much more lyrically and verbally inclined than I am musically inclined. I tend to enjoy music that is very strongly lyric oriented. Bitch and Animal, Mary Prankster, Tori, Ani. I also love music that tells a story; Harry Chapin, Bonnie Rait, Meatloaf, some Bonnie Tyler.Old classic rock like Paul Simon, James Taylor, Eric Clapton, Gordon Lightfoot - Cherokee Bend, Leader of the Band. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Only recently, since my accident, have I begun to appreciate classical music. I somehow find myself able to settle down enough to move beyond lyrics and to allow the sounds to tap into a previously unexploredpart of myself.
Movies
Welcome to the Dollhouse, Alice in Wonderland (the 80s all star version with Sammy D. and Carol Channing), Harold and Maude, I have found a new love for documentary films, Drop Dead Gorgeous, Waiting for Guffman, A mighty Wind, Best in Show. Katherine O'hare and Eugene Levy. Lily Tomlin. Ice Storm. Benny and June.
Television
Just in case anyone had any lingering doubts, quizfarm clears it all up for us:
You scored as Accident. You will probably die from a accident, like a car crash, a failed stunt or you missed the net when trapezing. Oh, that's a failed stunt. Anyway, be more careful your life is on the stake. (Sorry there isn't a picture, I didn't have the guts to search 'accident' on Google Image Serach.)
Chronicles of Narnia (before I found out they wre based on Christian ethic. Sigh. I still believe in Aslan), Hitchhikers Guide, Vonnegut, Salinger - Nine Stories is my favorite, Braughtigan - prose and poetry. Not his detective novels. Alice in Wonderland (esp. the movie with Sammy D.), Farenheit 451; the temperature at which paper burns (apparently), 1984. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You scored as The Vaginal-Reference-Making Dyke. You are the lesbian who can connect your vagina to nearly every object in the entire universe, creative and a little creepy you always astonish your friends.
do you realize how our--let's face it--relatively disgusting conversation about vultures shitting from their mouths and the need for toes to be put into anuses gradually cleared all the wussies from around the fire pit? yeah! we're hard core bad asses. we should practice that in the future. if we get really, really good at it, then perhaps people will call on us to engage in one of our just-a-bit-too-disgusting-to-be-erotic conversations whenever they need a room cleared. we could even charge a fee!
:( sorry. But kids are way out of my demographic. If I were you though I'd look up all the elementary schools in the phoenix metro area and start cold calling the shit out of them. Classroom field trips would definitely be a possibility. If that's not acceptable to them, maybe you should consider proposing to do free 10 minute shows in the classrooms and then hand out flyers to all the kids and tell them if they want to see the whole show they need to give these flyers to their parents. Here's a list to get you started . . . http://www2. mpsaz. org/schools/elementary http://www. kyrene. org/ksdportal/school%5Fdirectory/ http://ww2. chandler. k12. az. us/visit_schools. html You might also want to pitch to parent/kid type meetup groups. Go onto meetup. com and do a search for "parents" or "kids" within a 50 mile radius of zip code 85211. I hope I was of some help.
