I'm a dreamer, poet, mother, lover...
27 years old, married to a computer programmer, mother of a fabulous five-year-old girl.
I used to live in Western PA, now I live in South East Florida near the ocean.
I love paper crafts!
I PLEDGE TO RATE!!
poetry ~ butterflies ~ swans ~ gryphons ~ geishas ~ collages ~ ladybugs ~ sunsets ~ trees ~ snails (paper trail and slimy) ~ mandalas ~ malas ~ hookahs ~ birds ~ lizards ~ faeries ~ camels make me laugh ~ purple ~ orange ~ sky blue ~ green ~ peacocks ~ seahorses (but no other sea creatures, please...they scare me)
MUSIC:
Death Cab for Cutie ~ Pink Floyd ~ Led Zeppelin ~ Tool ~ Sublime ~ System of a Down ~ Nonpoint ~ Korn ~ Fiona Apple ~ Portishead ~ Nina Simone ~ Garden State Soundtrack ~ VAST ~ Ours ~ Muse ~ Incubus ~ Gorillaz ~ Evans Blue ~ Morcheeba ~ Album Leaf ~
on and on and on...
I prefer heavy alternative music, genuine lyrics, music that transports me to another part of the world...
SCENTS:
I adore patchouli, sandalwood, beachy, lilies, pomegranate, berries, cinnamon, rain...
My daughter's name is Nova.
She is celestial.
Her faves are: lions (esp. Alex from Madagascar), dolphins, male Disney characters (ie. Aladdin, Robin Hood, and Peter Pan), stars, sparkly things (she is a tomboy Fancy Nancy...) mermaids, Madagascar, magnets and art projects.
She is extremely interested in learning Spanish as her best friend is bilingual. Anything related to teaching children about Spanish would be a blessing.
I'm looking for Reading Level "1" and "2" books for her right now since she's beginning to read now, if you have any to pass on...

WORKOUT
I have recently begun working out, so I would really love to receive anything that encourages me to stick with it.
A nice workout top or tank top with a cute design (Size L or XL if it is a clingy material)
a mixed cd of high-energy music (fast tempo)
a small spa towel, white or blue to wipe the sweat off!
a small water bottle
a nice headband to keep the hair out of my face
yoga gloves (my hands get too sweaty and I can't stay in downward dog)
books on nutrition/workouts
ZINES
I have recently got into collecting/making zines and would love to receive more! There's examples of some on my Etsy Faves, but I would love one made by YOU, too!
EMBROIDERY
My girlfriend and I are going to start embroidering together on the weekends. Would love any ideas, kits, supplies for projects we could do...
My favorite number is 8. I live my life by it. If two roads diverged in the wood and one marker said "Path 2" and another marker said "Path 8", I would take 8 every time. No questions asked, even if it looked spookier or was full of spiderwebs...
I'm a bit obsessive about it really, sometimes, some would say. But it is a symbol (infinity) that I put my faith into and I follow it when it comes in front of my path.
I would rather pay $8 for something than $6.97.
I put :28 mins on the microwave instead of :30.
I pay $20.80 to fill my tank instead of $20.00.
Ok, you get the point - I'm done now...
