concerning the name of my blogggggg:

"one in a million, or one of a million. i can never remember which."

under other circumstances i try to avoid discussions of politics with people i've just met (or those who have just met me... however you want to look at this interaction is fine). but for all intensive purposes i feel it is important to my integrity and my fellow bloggers to proclaim no holds barred the impetus behind my blog name.


plain and simple: i'm a pro-life democrat. confusing huh?

not something you see everyday; most people just ask me if i'm confused.

but no. i am a gun hating, war avoiding, homo loving, peace freak hippy who just happens to really really really really abhor abortion, and the death penalty for that matter.

i luuuuuuve the babies

so yes politically i'm a bit funky but thats not where it ends...

plain and simple never really turns out to be plain and simple does it?



I consider myself to be an "old soul." by this i mean, i act like a technologically proficient old person. i read, i attend operas, i love classical music, i drink wine, i'd prefer face-to-face conversation with any intelligent forty year old to text messaging "exchange of grunts" with someone my own age. i cook and i want to own a bed and breakfast. i worry about my retirement and i am appling for an ROTHIRA, or i will eventually, at least within the next year. i read old books, watch old movies, listen to old music, and i love OLD art. i'm an effing history major for god's sake.

i have yet to find an almost 19 year old as old as me.

last of a dying breed is a bit ironic in that sense isn't it?

oh and the "dyeing" versus "dying" thing is just because i dye my hair a lot... a lot a lot
