Delores Evangeline Torkelson was born a mild spring morning in Alliance, Nebraska. Now to most people that doesn't mean much but to some it is the home of Carhenge. I know what you are thinking, that still means nothing. Well it didn't mean much to Dolores either. Truth be told she didn't even live in Alliance. She lived in a nearby town known as Antioch. Chances are you never heard it considering it's often left off most maps. Her parent's ran a small ranch in the desolate town. She was home-schooled for most of her life, and seeing as how the population of Antioch was under 25, Lola (as her parents called her for short) spent most of her time among the animals, who were her only real friends. To say she was a peculiar child is an understatement. It was not uncommon that Lola felt a bit neglected, she would often make her own outfits as means to garner some attention, though it never really seemed to work. The only time she'd ever be around people was when her father participated in rodeos. Lola had the chance to be around other children. Though most the kids treated her like the alien child she was. This never dismayed her. When the other kids would avoid her she merely thought they were playing a game.
She often dreamed of living life outside of the ranch, and so it was when she was old enough to be in high school her parents sent her to live with her grandmother in Portland, Oregon. It was strange adapting to life in a public high school. She soon learned that the kids who avoided her during rodeos, weren't playing games with her because she was their friend but rather because they were mean and spiteful little brats. Just when she was about ready to give up and return to the chicken and cows in Antioch, she made her first friend. Their gravity was undeniable and soon became inseparable. That is until hormones came into the picture. Lola never really understood why her friend was all moon-eyed over girls. Having grown up deprived of social interaction, she was a late bloomer when it came to such matters. When she finished high school she came to the difficult decision of staying in Portland or seeing what else the rest of the world had to offer.
She decided to enroll in a college internship program with Disney, which landed her in Orlando, Florida. She was amongst her own kind, castaways and rejects. People who where probably treated as freaks but oddly enough remained optimistic. It was here that Lola flourished(aka became quite the pervert). She loved and lost( her virginity), experimented, broke a few hearts and overall just grew up. By the time she got her bachelors she was no longer the strange naive girl from Hick's ville, Nebraska. She was a woman, self aware, still a little quirky, but sure of who she was. Not sure what to do next and after finding her childhood friend on facebook, she decided a change of scenery was in order. And so it was that Dolores came to Phoenix, in hopes of reconnecting and starting a new chapter in her life.
