“I think my new thing will be to try to be a real happy guy. I’ll just walk around being real ha

About Me

Hmm. I'm a handful I have to admit. (I'm sure I can get a few people who agree without trying too hard. he.) I'm USUALLY cheerful & happy (until someone steps on my buzz. I can't hang with negative people because I am too sensitive to other people's moods–yep, typical cancer girl–but I am very easy-going about stuff life thows at me.I have a twisted sense of humor. I'm fiercely loyal and protective of my closest friends and family. I don't really like to talk on the phone. I like fairy tales and potty humor. I laugh at my own jokes. I'm opinionated, clever and easy to talk to.

All kinds but esp. classic country, rockabilly, (i dig me some stand up bass), and cheezy old 80's.A few of my favorite artists are: prince, merle haggard, elvis, neil diamond, billy idol, rufus wainright, johnny cash, tom jones, cheap trick, queen, marty robbins, the killers, jesse dayton, two hoots and a holler, dale watson.I love going to Ginny's Little Longhorn for chicken shit bingo. I have met some of my greatest friends there. You can find me out back with a Lone Star.

Movies:

raising arizona, o' brother, big lebowski, elf, fight club, purple rain, the king and i, moonstruck, love me if you dare, immortal beloved, the sound of music, the life aquatic, lost in translation, living out loud, finding nemo, swingers, the commitments, 40-yr old virgin, hands on a hard body, when harry met sally, the lost boy, the jazz singer (go neil!)
