About Me:
I was raised a proper southern debutante, but I've got the mouth of a sailor (some might say a French sailor).
I have an inordinate number of shoes, some of which can be used as lethal weapons.
I have wee hands.
I like the rock music.
I put packs of salted peanuts in my root beer.
I laugh a lot and can tell a story funny enough to make you snort out loud.
I irritate myself with my frequent use of southern colloquialisms.
-
Who I Want to Meet:
People captivating enough to pull me away from the work, home improvements, crafts, or hanging with my excellent group of friends.
I.e.
Whipsmart, sardonically witted, slightly askew folk
Consummate storytellers.
Show buddies.
Someone to give me their copy of the NY Times Crossword during my Sunday crepes at Joe Bar.
Meat-eating foodies.
Owners of hypoallergenic puppy dogs.
People from Ibor City.
*Or*
Those who can get me massive price reductions on Artemide light fixtures, Adam Shaw paintings or Siematic kitchen accessories. Or a color consultant, if such an occuptation exists, to help me to determine what color to paint my den. I'm an interior-design whore.
Also accepted: John Hodgman.

contradictory historical contingencies.
Allow me to explain. On the one hand,
her southern roots stretch deep into
Pacolet soils of Alabama and she
encompasses the best her southern
heritage. Go ahead and ask Lee Dicks
about her debutante ball, or how to
make a gin fizz, or the ins and outs of
properly hosting an engagement ball.
Yeah, she knows: check, check, and
check. But on the other hand Lee Dicks
isn't stuck on the antebellum glory days
of old which fell after the War of
Northern Aggression. Her love and
knowledge of rock can put any cha cha
hipster in his place; the artwork that she
produces at her studio is amazing; and
her Brazilian is so damn scandalous
that it makes me blush just thinking
about it. Damn.
bands that I give her money everytime
kexp has a pledge drive. She is a kick
ass hostess, but she is not afraid to
kick your arse should you say, buy,
do, or (in my case) screw
something/someone she does not like.
She can drink more whiskey per inch of
height than anyone I know. She's quick
to make fun of her southern belle
roots, but coyly balances her new
englanded-educated, in your face
liberalness with the sweetness of a
girl from alabama. In 2 words she's a
dope debutante.
everything; hilarity, style, grace,
hospitality, cuteness, and every other
good thing on earth. She loves shoes,
fried donuts, and vanilla cokes. How
on earth can she be anything less than
perfect!!
rock goddess, sassy southern sex
symbol, loquacious drunk, with a nice
streak that matches her cuteness. Lee
Dicks has rediscovered, and embodies:
originality inside of irony, cool
inside of nerd, warmth inside of
sarcasm, and rock inside of roll. In
other words, cuts like a knife, but it
feels so right.
just mean by blood, but in her
ghettofabulous style and smarts.
Easily amused, offensively short, and
erratically annoyed - - a true Clark.
the best southern accent of all of us
(y'all hold onnnnnn). She studied
fractals with Mandelbroit,for god's
sake. Her house in Alabama is haunted
and her family christmas parties are
legendary. She is beautiful and
brilliant and caring and funny. Also,
she can high kick like a mofo. You
should all be so lucky...
prettier, too. But you're probably
taller.
we'll just, like, quiz her: "Hey, Lee Dicks,
what's the square root of 100?" And she'll tell
us! But there's so much more to our Li'l Dixie
than just her mad human calculator skillz.
She's pretty, witty, catty, and lots of other
words that end in "tty." She's an awesome
cook, she has a flair for, well, just about
everything, and she always, always lets me
come to Seattle and sleep on her "Danish day
bed" (ahem...futon...) when I want to see rock
shows. Plus she let me astroturf her loft. You
will be a happier person having her in your
life.
