Your Dosha is Pitta
You have a quick mind, a gift for persuasion, and a sharp sense of humor.
You have both the drive and people skills to be a very successful leader.
Argumentative and a bit stubborn, you have been known to be a little too set in your ways.
But while you may be biased toward your own point of view, you are always honest, fair, and ethical.
With friends: You are outgoing and open to anyone who might want to talk to you
In love: You are picky but passionate
To achieve more balance: Be less judgmental of those around you, and take cool walks in the moonlight. What's Your Dosha?

I'd like to meet:

People who want to make a difference in the world. Those who can give not only take. My friend in Arkansas, Cory! Jennifer Garner so I can borrow her hotness, Nigella Lawson so she can teach my how to make food talk sound like soft core porn. NPH. The cast of my favourite show. The magic sprite that lives in my TIVO. Gerard Butler... Does wanting to get horizontal with him count as wanting to meet?

Music:

Artists and bands in rotation on the iPod at the moment~ The Kooks, Lionel Neykov, Colbie Callait, Juno Soundtrack, Ray LaMontagne, City and Colour, John Mayer, Etta James, Ella Fitzgerald, Tupac, Biggie, Keane, Oasis, Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake, The Fray, Ice Cube, Snow Patrol, Dane Cook, Dennis Leary, Coldplay, Louis Armstrong, Travis, Lily Allen, The Fratellis, Amy Winehouse,

Movies:

I have yet another addiction so there are a few:Grandma's Boy, Wizard Of Oz, Princess Bride, Serenity, Priscilla Queen of the Desert, Dear FrankieSense & Sensibility,Emma, Office Space, anything by Kevin Smith, especially Jersey Girl which was hugely underrated! Lord Of The Rings (any of them), Demon Knight, all of the Evil Dead movies, Resevoir Dogs, About a Boy, Bridget Jones (both), Swingers, Love Actually, White Christmas, Gone With The Wind, Elf, Dodge Ball, Home For The Holidays, Boondock Saints,.. width="325" height="250" ....Jackass, Notting Hill, Dazed and Confused, 16 Candles, Waiting, Pride and Prejudice, all of the X-Men series (Hugh Jackman as Wolverine... Need I say more?), any of the Blade trilogy, Slither, both of the Underworld series, all Indiana Jones moives but especially The Temple Of Doom... there are more but I think that's enough!

Television:

.. width="325" height="250" ....I've actually cut the TV watching down immensely but these are the shows that I could watch at any time: The Office, Ugly Betty, Bones, CSI, Rescue Me, ER, Alias, 24, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Angel, Firefly, Queer As Folk, South Park, Six Feet Under, Far Scape, Jackass, Da Ali G Show, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, Absolutely Fabulous, Little Britain, Sex and the City, What Not To Wear, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition (guaranteed I cry at the beginning and end), Lost, Extras, Heroes, Hell's Kitchen, Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares.

Books:

Wicked by Gregory Maguire. Next on the list is Brief Interviews With Hideous Men then John Stewart's America. After that, Persuasion by Jane Austen. I adore Jane Austen and just read Darcy's Story which is Pride and Prejudice from Darcy's point of view written in the same style. It was lovely to read. Love Roald Dahl, don't care if his books are for kids. Time Traveller's Wife, Little Women, Othello, Desperation, Gerald's Game, Memoirs of a Geisha, A Million Little Pieces & My Friend Leonard (I couldnt' give a rats ass if he took some liberties. I cried), Green Mile. Just read Little Children. It was pretty good. Not a must read but good.

Heroes:

People who choose honesty over the easy answer. Single parents doing the job of two people (we have our issues but my Mom did a pretty good job). People who follow their dreams. My Grandma, who in her late 70's is sharp as a tack and kicks my ass at crosswords every time! Now she's trying to take me on in Sudoku... We'll see who comes out on top very soon!

About two years ago I started a new relationship, or rather, started up an old one. It was a relationship with a person I hadn't seen in over 21 years. How can that be you ask when I'm not even 28? Th...
