linz's page cute as a button, and twice the fastening capability

I grew up in a log cabin in the 1800s. Pa was a farmer and Ma kept house.

Oh, wait. That was Little House.

Sometimes I confuse those books with my actual childhood. I think I was what you’d call a "book nerd."

I grew up to a whopping 5’2" in Pennsylvania, under the close scrutiny of lab technicians.

When they decided I was done incubating, I moved to Atlanta to learn how to live slower. But so did a lot of other people, so now it’s just as cranky, beepy, shout-out-the-car-windowy as any other city I guess. At least now that I’m here, cranky, beeping & shouting out my window.

I want to make music for a living, much like millions of other deluded individuals in this country. The first song I learned on guitar was Sweet Child o Mine. I still don’t know many more chords. I refuse to watch American Idol. I think it’s terrible. But I’ll try out if they come back to Atlanta.

I am 24, a Taurus and a horse. I never sleep enough & tend to make this someone else’s problem. I am sensitive, a crappy artist, a nature-lover, a landlocked beach bum, an optimist, a lover not a fighter. I practice my own religion of one, I am loud, and I like going out on the weekends even if I’m dead tired. I love being in crowds. I like laying by the pool with no sunscreen.

I am still a book nerd so tell me what’s good.

I hate TV but I watch it sometimes esp. now that my evil roommate’s rich boyfriend bought us a satellite. I am a hypocrite like most people. I think the world is terrible and beautiful.

I love people. I love getting to know them, squeezing the exciting stuff out of them like they are a big soapy sponge. People are weird, fascinating, and yet predictable.

I want to skydive, hang-glide and bungee jump. I want to learn to surf and travel all over the world. I want to make tons of money & give [most of] it to other people. I have had a crush on a boy since 5th grade and still think I will somehow win him. I have a crush on a boy who lives hundreds of miles away, who I knew for 2 days, and I think the same thing about him. I like having crushes on unreachable people rather than having anything realistic that might really hurt me.

I love music. I especially love dancing to music, be it a techno club, blues bar, an Irish pub, a hiphop joint or a hippie hole-in-the-wall. I love it all. I have an inexcusably small CD collection & still rely a lot on tapes, which many consider a sin.

I am anal about weird things, I resent people who have found their inner peace though I want to join the club, I am loyal, I know how to keep a secret. I love looking at the stars.

I think if I see enough shooting stars I might reach nirvana.
