Goals, plans, destinations. Want to join me on an experience that you’ll know we’ll both love? Or help me along on big goals to enhance my own adventurous life? You’re in the right place.
Goals
I’ve never had a “wishlist.” I plan, and I usually plan big. Below are some of the major goals in my life that I’m actively working to actualize. Find one that inspires you? You can help me along with tips, cash gifts, and commodities whenever we meet in person. Or if you’d like to help from afar, shoot me a note and I’ll share my cashapp tag. Either way, please specify what goal you’d like your gift to support, and I’ll put it aside for that goal.
Car (SUV hybrid, make/model TBD)
Living in Chicago has many perks, and I’ve enjoyed the free range pedestrian life for over 15 years now! But, some of my passion projects and wander lust is starting to make the car-free life a little too painful. Help me transport tools, equipment, and maybe even make a drive to your city with some help towards a new car. And, if you’re an SUV owner (gas only or hybrid) and in the market for a new car yourself, I’m very open to a gently used option.
Home
Being raised in the “home remodel” life from age 5-17 left me with feeling that real luxury lies in the ability to build, create, and give distinct shape to all parts of my life. To that end, I’ve been watching the market and building a hefty down payment toward my first fixer upper. If your kinks include tiny gals wielding power tools, financial gifts toward my home nest egg is the way to go.
Photography Classes and Gear
I’ve dabbled with my Fujifilm for a bit. Now it’s time to get serious. I’m currently enrolled in a foundational in person course. Help me continue to stretch my creative wings with help towards photography courses, workshops, or more gear.
If you’re a photographer yourself, I would also potentially love your gently used gear compatible with a Fuji X-mount style camera body, or other studio gear. And if you’d like to gift me gear in person, please consider supporting Dodd camera or your local camera shop. Please drop me an email if you’d like to talk more about gifting or else sponsoring gear, and you may even find a photo or two in your email box. ;-)

Wellbeing
Who needs cosmetic enhancements and spa dates when I can stay young from the inside out? This category includes some of my biggest annual investments, and are ongoing pursuits. (No surprise, if you’ve known me for a hot minute!) They help me live my best, and bring my best self to you on our date, especially when performing feats of athleticism atop the kinky chandeliers!
Supplements: a friend once referred to my supplement regimen as “7 bean soup.” Soup me, baby. (Amazon gift cards physically purchased at a store are a great option. If you’d rather send a digitally purchased gift card, please email me for my unpublished email address.)
PT/manual therapy: Ever seen Death Becomes Her? That’s loosely based off my manual therapy life. Help me work the kinks out, so I can work the kinks into you. Death. Sessions range $130-$240 per, depending on the therapist and type of work.
Trainer: I’ve built a home gym, but occasional private training sessions is a great way to guide my form, increase my gains, and help you achieve that lifelong dream of being crushed between a beautiful redhead’s thighs.
Self care: If you’ve ever seen me after a vacation, you know that special glow. A few vacations a year allow me to shut down, recharge and bring my best self when I return. AirBnb gift cards are wonderful ways to treat my downtime. (AirBnb gift cards physically purchased at a store are a great option. If you’d rather send a digitally purchased gift card, please email me for my unpublished email address.)
Companionship wellbeing: Ok, technically all of the above supports my day to days to be your stellar date. But certain religious right wing groups are working hard to limit sexual voice and expression, and this threatens everyone’s sexual wellbeing. (Not to mention general privacy.) I strongly support the Free Speech Coalition for their tireless work on defending our rights to sexual expression and access. If you feel moved, donations to their work would be very meaningful and appreciated!
Destinations & Experiences
Ever wondered: “What the hell does Eve dream of doing together, anyway?” Then this place is for you. You might call them “dream dates.” I call them “places and experiences I’ll enjoy, hell or high water.” Join me on the ride?
Wild, Quiet Molokai
My ideal tropical vacation is a lot of outdoor wilds, and relatively few (but friendly!) faces. Let’s hike and marvel at nature, and spend lots of time exploring each other when it inevitably rains.
Halloween in NOLA
Hands down my favorite US city, but not yet experienced during Halloween! Do you like to play dress up? I already have my gender bend Bob Ross costume ready to debut. ;-)
Forage for Dinner
Want to build your post-apocalypse skills? One of Chicago’s most renowned foragers offers camping, foraging tours + dinner, and wildlife safaris on his pristine land south of Chicago. Let’s get ready for Skynet together.
Mexico City is for Art Lovers
A globally recognized cultural capital, art mecca, and warm weather haven all in one. A place for us to get our architecture, festival, and exhibit kinks on, all while warm enough to enjoy me in a sundress.
Return to Fringe
In 1947, eight theatre troupes crashed the Edinburgh International Festival. And, like the persistent plague rats actors are, they kept coming back with more friends in tow every year. Fast forward to today, and you have a genuinely all’s welcome inclusive party for the near full month of August. Join me for a few days (or longer) to immerse ourselves in what creativity looks like unedited, in the backdrop of one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
