Introductions...

Hi there.  I'm new to Blogger and would have started sooner if I had more time.  First posts always make me feel awkward...kind of like first impressions when I meet people in person.  I've never been good at "meeting new friends."  Quick facts: I'm 26, I live in the Midwest, and I want to move.  I work full time and attend school full-time working on my MBA.  I consider myself primarily an artist and musician, but somehow I have to pay the bills, so I work customer service in a measly attempt at accomplishing aforementioned bill-paying.

I play 3 instruments well and a few others not so well.  I'm in a rock band and we just lost our lead guitarist and lead singer...and while the only singing I've done is classical, I'm considering proposing the idea that I sing lead. But I'm kind of scared to propose it for real.  It's just a fantasy for now.

I'm obsessed with tattoos.  I only have 6, but the only reason I don't have 20 by now is money.  I fucking hate money but wish I had some.

I'm engaged to an amazing man who I will love until the day I die.  I want to die holding his hand.  Love has always been one of the most important forces in my life and will continue to be.  I'm a bleeding heart.  I love freely and deeply, and sometimes this causes me immense pain.  It's an interesting ride to say the least.

Oh, and though I don't like to get too involved in politics, I would classify myself as a flaming liberal.  I'm pro-choice, pro-environmentalism, and pro-social programs.  I try not to get into arguments but I have strong opinions and after sitting quietly most of my life I am sick of not defending them.

Sometimes I have absolutely no faith in humanity...but I am fascinated by the human condition.

What else, what else...

My fiance and I have a baby...our baby kitty.  Well, she is about 6 months old now.   Her name is Masha, and she is CUTE AS FUCK!  She's very hyperactive and her latest trick is crawling into the refrigerator when it's open.  She'll just crawl right in and lie down on the shelf next to the eggs.  She's such a weirdo.  She takes after her human parents in that respect :)

Well, methinks I will poke around on here and figure out how to use shit.  Peace out.
