About Me:
I don't put things away in their proper place.
I'm emotional.
I'm pretty.
I'm really good with kids.
I'm pregnant.
I sometimes say things that most people are thinking but afraid to say outloud for fear of being mocked.
I am a skeptical person's worst nightmare.
I don't kiss ass.
But I do coddle, sometimes.
I'm kidding about being pregnant.
People always think I'm a little dumb when they first meet me.
I'm more crafty than artsy, a little bit country, a little
bit rock and roll.
The Lisa is a very open book on tape. I am a very
good girl who seems to draw the attention of very bad
people, or at least people who think they are bad. I can't
complain, it's fun to let them try to corrupt
me...sometimes. .
I am almost always 77% right about things.
I can be very stubborn. I prefer to say that I am resolute.
I love to hear a
good story just as much as I love to tell one.

Who I Want to Meet:
Anyone who can keep up with me or doesn't have a need to, if y'are a person who sucks the marrow out of life, and/or a dignitary,
a poet, a glass blower, a philosoper, a wise man, a wiseacre,
a criminal and/or just yourself, I'd gamble we can hang....oh yeah, and a benefactor....so that I can live my life with untempered whimsy.

I owe you!
move. And not just her body. Her hands,
her words, her aura - they can all do
something amazing. If I'm lucky enough
to witness and experience some
cacophany of movement in Bminor, my
head may just explode. We are now in
each other's debt. She has helped me
get over the stigma of my electric slide
dancing, and I have saved her from
Sharpie wielding Nuge-wannabe's.
Someday we shall laugh over
Jameson's and a freshly cooked
cassarole and discuss world events
and the top 3 Pez dispensers ever
created. Until then, I shall simply sample
scents and subtle sounds that surround
her supple self . And learn some Pilates.
your jaw drop but you don't want her to
see that your jaw dropped so you smile
and nod and then when she leaves, you
say "holy shit, did you hear what she
just said?!" Girls like that are so fun
to know. She also says nasty things
within ear shot of even nastier girls
and that is way cooler than anything I
would have the guts to do. If I were a
guy and I were clicking around
friendster looking for a lady I'd
totally click on her link. (not a
euphamism). Word.
kind of flower of a girl. A
passionate/ romantic/ sensitive/
balleria/ good student/ serious-issue-
debater type. Sometimes when I talked
to her I felt like I defiled her just
with my presence -- like a transient
pawing at the hem of her long pretty
skirt with my filthy hands to solicit
change for a bottle of Nightrain. But
then, the bitch would show up in some
red lipstick, down some booze and let
loose with some swears, and you'd
realize she was undefile-able. So
then you'd slap her on the back,
invite her to sit down in the gutter,
and start talking some trash. Good
stuff, Stevens.
the street and start talking. Forget walk/don't
walk signs. I have known her from my 1st
day of classes, and she was always real
intense and focused to the n-th degree for
work, love or play. Now when Stevens is
mentioned by others, it is often with "I saw
Lisa Stevens and she was x. Then, she
brought x up, and we all laughed." A girl
from central IL. comes to Chicago and she
blooms further. She is pretty, different and
quirky. A real solid woman. (Clinking
glasses) To Lisa...good people are hard to
find.
sensitive, considerate, hardworking
and talented cool woman (and she has
great hair). I've always admired her
concentration and dedication.
OH...and she always laughed at my lame
jokes. I miss you Lisa!
