About me

Gender Female
Location East Bay, California, United States
Introduction I'm a lot like a cat, but my power animal is bison. My chart is heavy on the Scorpio. I love plants and down time and think about food a lot, and if you invite me over, I'll have you show me all of your old photos. I'm a novel whore with a ginormous soft spot for my family. I believe in the importance of individual thought, and I hate it when my elbows get dry and catch on my clothes. I am bewildered and angered by humanity's current state of affairs, am easily overwhelmed by crowds, have a lot of allergies, and have walked away from a lot of old beliefs. I'm learning how to sew, seek balance, and be kinder to myself.
