I don't have a headline!

About Me

Likes: Good food, Movies, Music, Sleeping, Watching TV, Spending time with my family, open minded people, and Travel - especially going somewhere new. I also like Learning, Cats, Walking on the beach, Autumn, the NC State Fair, Full moons, Ghost stories, and the Mountains.
Some good points about me would be that I have a good sense of humor, kind and sympathetic to others, a good listener, and a really great cook.
Dislikes: Double Standards, red tape, Wastefulness, Greed, Laziness.

In myself, I dislike my hot temper and impatience. I also wish I could be more self-motivating to follow through with projects. I get preoccupied with an idea and tend to forget about everything else. Social situations terify me, and I'm painfully shy so I come off as a snob at parties.
I don't like to make waves which can be good or bad in certain situations. Whenever I experience something new, I savor it with what Sammy says is "childlike wonder". You could say that I am easy to make happy, but also easy to piss off! Stress is probably my number one enemy and I have a hard time relaxing.

A few personal goals and dreams: One day, I want to own my own restaurant and feature my artwork for sale on it's walls. I'd like to be a husband and a father.

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
