tis' a curious thing how we find our way into each other's lives. this one and i spent our first moments in each others presence beneath a glassy moon, "dance with me gypsy" i commanded, she had no choice. since this pleasant and most unexpected connection we have shared many things. we are very different and yet we always find splendid ways to bring our experiences to the table in a way that amazes! and astounds! and sometimes maybe kinda makes the other person just say "gosh, you're really wierd" (that's probably her talking to me). Amanda is a matriarch of tremendous vision and ability. She is exactly what our community needs yet you may not even know it cuz she's too busy trying to help people that really need it and save the world! I believe in her no matter what. She is beautiful and caring and complex and simple and loving and she has a sparkle pony ;)

Big Love, gratitude & delicious wishes to you my dear on Valentine's Day! You rock!
I love you dear sweet SOLID sis-star! Thanks for being so graceful with me and with the intense fluctuations around managing my life! You have been such a blessing to me, my home & my business. May Your Cup Floweth Over in Divine Enrichment!

What can I say about this selfless, elfish, N.Y.C. harder than a shell fish, shelf- ish wonder brains. hotter than a biscuit straight out tha oven, saving the world one shine at a time.. phenomenal nominal Anthropological logical tropical diabolical comical Amanda... she puts the blue in my suede. the glue in my cage, the whip to my rage, the uhhh yawl get the picture..

If you're watching her on the dance floor, you'll be blown away ... this woman can MOVE. She doesn't miss a beat, and she rarely stops moving. She takes up a lot of space, but never loses awareness of her own. But the real joy in Amanda is when you look into her eyes as she describes the various ways in which she wants to make this world of ours a more beautiful place. She is truly lovely.

this woman lifts my heart each time i see her. her encouragement and praise is tonic for my lowest moments. she inspires me. and when we dance together i become completely convinced--no matter what else existed during the minutes prior--that i am happy and content, and the world is well.
