absynthe's Profile

About this Member

What is there to tell? I'm enigmatically eccentric, have a penchant for the Gothic and all things dark and spooky and love to learn about different ways to live.

Life to me is both a burden and an adventure - sometimes both at the same time. When I'm up, I'm very, very up and when I'm down, I'm desolate.

I am a mongerel Celt (name a Celtic race and I've probably got it in my bloodstream) and am fascinated by my ancestors past.

I enjoy listening to "Faith and the Muse" most at the moment, although I'll listen to and have the capacity for enjoying almost any sort of music. Except Country and Western - the appeal of which has always eluded me.
