I dig: car rides to no place in particular,Hang'n out, movies, woodland creatures, Italy, dancing, sweet tea, Sailor Jerry, cooking,handwritten letters,actin goofy, run-on sentences,traveling,laughing,Dark Spicy Belgium Beer, details, art& books turn me on.

I live in Cary work in Durham. I have actually met in-person almost everyone on my friends list. (Cause I'm just that cool.)
so.... I ran out of words....here are some stolen quotes :
A witty saying proves nothing. Voltaire
This above all: to thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man. William Shakespeare- Hamlet

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO, What a Ride"
Create Your Own

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Folks that go and do more than just bars...it's fun but gettin old.

This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness." H.H. Tenzin Gyatso
