Angie
Name: Angie

I'm an unabashed hedonist. I love wonderful food, soft and cuddly clothing, beautiful colors and fabrics, shiny jewelry and sparkly things, foot rubs, back massages, snuggles, and sex. My favorite place is bed, I could happily spend days at a time ensconced in my cozy queen-sized palace with a stack of trashy romance novels and Lindt truffles at the ready. And of course the occasional visitor!

I went to catholic school and am still in recovery from it, but it did cause me to develop a deep and abiding love of snazzy knee-socks.

I studied college in theatre, and can often be caught belting out show tunes when I think no-one is around. I'm a stage manager by trade, training, and inclination. I worked in special needs and elder-care for a decade, as a tax preparer, and at the oldest bookstore in America.

I'm usually the den mother of my social circle, and a Type A personality. I'm service- oriented, and enjoy finding the perfect gift or snack for a friend or lover, or bringing home little surprises for my partner.

I had an ill-advised youthful marriage, and am certain I'll never return to the world of monogamy, it's just too difficult a lifestyle for me to maintain. I'm bisexual and Polyamorous, and identify as radically queer.

I LOVE fishnet tights and corsets, and look longing towards the day when I can finally afford a REAL corset, not one of those costume shop pieces of crap. Lingerie is one of my reasons for living.

If I have lip balm and a hair tie I will feel comfortable and in control of my life, regardless of what else is happening.

I'm here with a quite interesting conglomeration of people- Tobias, who is my partner's ex-lover; Paxus, staying at Contact. I'm facilitating the Understanding Jealousy Workshop at PP with Pax.

The main reason I'm at Burning Man is I feel stuck in my comfy rut and I'm looking to have my mind blown. I've been assured this won't be a problem, but putting it all back together again afterwards might be.

I live in an intentional community (hippie commune) and do so because I think that sharing and creating a culture where we work together for the common good is the only way we can survive the crash that's coming. It's not always easy, but it's always worth it. I spend most of my days cooking, running after kids, doing campus speaking tours, doing corporate and personal taxes and accounting, and various bureaucratic duties around the community. I have an amazing life and am grateful for it every day. It's not utopia yet, but on a good day we can see it from here

Come by and say hi, I'll be the one cursing at my rebar and trying to figure out what SPF to wear on my lily-white derriere.
