About Me:
pisces sun. capricorn moon. scorpio rising. i am quite sober and serious, but i enjoy moving through the world in a state of lighthearted bliss. my mind is in a constant state of conversation - a kind of waking dream, an ongoing screenplay of imaginary future discussions...when im staring off into space, in other words, im actually talking. it has recently been brought to my attention that this is slightly unusual.
