I was born in Germany in 1990. My parents weren't military, and they weren't on vacation when my mom suddenly went into labor.

She’s also my travel buddy, my knitted garment ( Read more... )

I don’t like to stew. I love eating stew, but I don’t like to sit in it. Yet I still find myself stewing over some things! Want to know my trick to getting over it? Convert the time spent stewing into smaller units of measure. Say my brother cut the cord of my good headphones for giggles. P.I.S.S.E.D. If that happened at noon, and I’m still mad ( Read more... )

My name is Zazie. I am 30 years old, Gemini, lover of mother earth, and an actress.
