About Me
Hi! Thanks for coming. My name’s Greg, I’m 24 years old and I live in a little city in Maryland known as Glen Burnie. I created this profile on The Day Before Halloween, Two Thousand Six; hope you have a little fun here getting to know me. As there is easily way more about me than could possibly fit here, I think I’ll most likely have to forego posting every last detail about myself--you can check out the Blogs for that--and just stick to the basics. I'm working on turning it into a full-blown Greg extravaganza. One day I’ll probably give you a big dossier with all the essential stuff—while I’ll also be posting pictures and other goodies. Here is the profile info for the time being. Thanks!
Love,
GregA(n abbreviated) MESSAGE--PLEASE READ:
I've been getting a lot of requests lately from spammers, who have all turned out to be the same person. I am not an idiot; I can spot identical MySpace profiles with only the smallest differences at a glance. This is not to address this spammer, but rather to tell everybody this is simply why I turned on the "last name or E-mail to request me" device. Okay? That's the ONLY reason. And the spammer's requests have ceased. The last thing I want to do is discourage people from trying to add me to their lists or slam the door on them. All I ask is that if you want to be pals on MySpace, please please PLEASE send me a message, because I check every day, and I promise I'll write back to you. If you make the point you want to be buddies, I will send YOU a friend request. Sound good? And don't be afraid to open up. Tell me a little about yourself! How you found my page, what it is you might like (or might NOT like) about it, why you would want to be friends...PLEASE PIPE UP if you like it/me!!
Big Love, Greg

TELL ME ABOUT YOURSELF - The Survey
Name: Greg Edward Miloro
Birthday: 6th of April, Nineteen Eighty-Three
Birthplace: Mercy Hospital, Baltimore, Maryland
Current Location: Glen Burnie, Maryland
Eye Color: Very brown
Hair Color: Even browner
Height: Just about an even six feet
Right Handed or Left Handed: One hundred percent right
Your Heritage: Mostly Italian and a touch Polish, I believe
The Shoes You Wore Today: They're pretty much always the same. If it's summertime, they're my Teva 12 flip-flops from Ocean City, and if it's NOT summertime, they've my black, non-shined-up casual dress ped protectors. I don't wear more than two kinds of shoes, or any more than I need. I'm a guy, remember?
Your Weakness: Kindness, hugs, smiles, tears, cold weather, holidays, chocolate, Mountain Dew, pizza, pop music and heart-wrenching movies.
Your Fears: Self-doubt, needles, apathy, being ignored or shunned, oblivion, nightmares, the dark and insects I have never seen before or that pop up without warning.
Your Perfect Pizza: SHOOT...Pizza Hut's Supreme Stuffed Crust: All the toppings, all the fixin's, in large size, eaten backwards, extremely filling, always a little bit left over for the next day, even tastes great re-heated as a leftover.
Goal You Would Like To Achieve This Year: Gosh, which one...finish and get my story published I've been working on since August 2005, star in or at least act in several more theatre productions, maybe even another film or two, write some more songs and recreate a few of my old lost ones, read a hundred more terrific books, break a record of two thousand CDs, watch more classic movies, make some more friendly acquaintances on MySpace and elsewhere, cohabitate with my girlfriend permanently eliminate depression, violence, war, famine, poverty and hunger all over the entire Earth...wait a minute...no, you know what? I have already accomplished all of that.
Your Most Overused Phrase On an instant messenger: Heh?...I don't do Internet shorthand or anything like that, although I do say, "Ah, yes, indeedy-roo" and "Righty-ho" quite a bit.
Thoughts First Waking Up: Lately, "Where is that 'Snooze' button?" Otherwise, it's "Where's my Roxette videos DVD so I can get through the day at work?" or something like that. Here's a frequent one: "Hey, self, didn't we just do this yesterday?" Or if I'm somewhat nonchalant, "I wish I could have that dream again and it could have a happy ending."
Your Best Physical Feature: You would have to ask Jenny, my significant other, and not to toot my own horn, but I'm not even sure she would be able to narrow it down to one thing. If I had to pick one, I'd say my smile.
Your Bedtime: Come again? Well, usually, I try to shoot for 10:15 p.m., at I normally get up at 6:15 a.m. to get to work on time, but falling asleep then happens about as often as winning the lottery.
Your Most Missed Memory: See initial gut reaction to the "Goals" question. To list off just a few, first grade, before my whole school world was so shook up, watching all my favorite old TV shows, going for rides in the car and hearing what would become all my favorite songs years later, staying up late to go to the movies, going to my grandmothers' houses in Dundalk, bowling with my brother on the kids' league, playing in the snow when we still got snow, riding my bicycle to the mall and back and just the thrill of wanting to be so much like my superheroes.
Pepsi or Coke: DEW. That's a Pepsi product, so I guess I have to go with the first one.
MacDonalds or Burger King: The first one again, and by the by, whoever put together this thing, it's MC-Donald's, not MAC!
Single or Group Dates: Mmmm...single, with my girlfriend, Jenny, thank you very much. If I was on a date with three or four girls at the same time, unpleasant things would inevitably start to happen.
Lipton Ice Tea or Nestea: I'd have to say I'd prefer the Nestea this time if pressed...even though I'm not sure either are really my cup of...um...uh, right, well, anyway, yes, Nestea.
Chocolate or Vanilla: Oh, chocolate, without question. But only white or milk. Call me a racist, but I've never really cared for the dark stuff.
Cappuccino or Coffee: I had never had a cappuccino, and don't drink coffee after trying it once or twice and absolutely despising it. Although, on a rare occasion when I've had to pull an all-nighter to get a few things done, I'll sprinkle about twenty or thirty sugars and creams in there and by then it's at least tolerable.
Do you Smoke: Good Heavens, no. No reason. It's unattractive and doesn't impress me.
Do you Swear: Previous answer and all attachments apply here too.
Do you Sing: All the time! Always practice, currently taking private lessons at school. Ever since I was young in what is now my parents' bedroom, with all my favorite music, whenever there is a spare two to four hours.
Do you Shower Daily: Daily? Yeah, right. Whenever I've had a spare moment lately I've normally used it to close my eyes and ponder one deep, pensive thought. In other words, bathing's usually out of the question. Although when I CAN shower, singing normally also occurs.
Have you Been in Love: Has anybody ever not? I still am. Jenny and I have been in a relationship for three-and-a-half years now.
Do you want to go to College: I am, but I think this is about it for me. It's gouging me, money-wise, and I just don't think I can afford it anymore.
Do you want to get Married: Eventually, maybe, when I'm financially secure and we have a place to stay and life setting we know we want for the rest of our lives.
Do you belive in yourself: Most of the time, thankfully. Many people I've had the pleasure of meeting (and working with on a variety of projects) have helped me to do so.
Do you get Motion Sickness: Just a little bit, I think, but not enough to shake me up or make me nauseous. We went on a cruise to Mexico '06 back in January and my mother and kid brother got pretty ill, I think my uncle started to a little bit, but no, my Dad and I were just fine.
Do you think you are Attractive: Huh...do you mean physically, or emotionally, or what? Well, I guess the phrasing of the question doesn't matter so much; the answer's most likely a resounding "YES" all around the board. I like to think not enough to make me conceited, but enough to be healthy for life.
Are you a Health Freak: NO. Funny you should ask me that right after my last answer; I meant emotional health in that last one. Now I presume we're talking physical? Nah, I can't force myself to "eat right" or exercise regularly, unfortunately. Have you ever seen a jogger laughing?
Do you get along with your Parents: Yes, now, thank goodness. If not I would be sleeping in someone's car (not that one). I didn't always so well, but yeah, we have a great relationship now.
Do you like Thunderstorms: Oh, I love them! Well, when I'm indoors and just relaxing. They're not so very much fun when you're trying to drive.
Do you play an Instrument: I did start taking piano lessons when I was eleven, and I still play my keyboard fairly often, even though I've discovered my fingers don't have much rhythm. My favorite instrument right now still remains my voice.
In the past month have you Drank Alcohol: Go back to what I said about the smoking and cursing for this one again.
In the past month have you Smoked: I thought we covered that about fifteen or twenty questions ago.
In the past month have you been on Drugs: Ditto...no nicotine, no alcohol, no nothing else that's illegal, just caffeine.
In the past month have you gone on a Date: YES! There's a past month question I can affirmatively respond to. I take Jenny out all the time, to restaurants or movies or to the mall or just for a walk, whatever we feel like doing.
In the past month have you gone to a Mall: Double YES!! Once again, I said that in the last question. I love malls. I've been to nine in Maryland alone. I've even written a comedic short story about the legacy of the shopping mall and falling in love while inside it.
In the past month have you eaten a box of Oreos: Actually, no. Isn't that amazing about me? I'm a sugarholic and a chocoholic, yes, but I usually don't buy that kind of stuff myself. Sometimes Jenny does, but not recently. They are awesome, though. 'Specially the Double Stuf. You ever play some kind of game by pulling the cookies apart and seeing who gets the most filling? "I love the white stuff, baby...in the middle of an Oreo..." --Weird Al
In the past month have you eaten Sushi: You bet, yes, actually, Jenny turned me on to it in February, and we've been enjoying it on and off with the special sauce ever since. Was the big food of the Eighties, after all.
In the past month have you been on Stage: Not after the last several for a little while, but if you recall, at a place called the Laurel Mill Playhouse, there were three shows: Moon Over Buffalo, which closed on November the 5th, and now The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, through December, followed by Love From A Stranger, which ended in Feb.
In the past month have you been Dumped: In no manner and by no one have I been dumped. I'm pretty happy about that...although I'm pretty sure you probably mean have I broken up with someone, the answer is still a negative.
In the past month have you gone Skinny Dipping: As this edit was done at 1:33 a.m. on July 28th, 2007, I can honestly say that yes, I have. In our own swimming facility. Not the public one.
In the past month have you Stolen Anything: In the past month? No. Well, no, okay, that's a lie. Yes, I have: A couple of glances, several kisses here and there, even the spotlight. In my younger days I was more of a kleptomaniac, especially when we would play ball. Second base was not nailed down.
Ever been Drunk: I believe we went over that already, although if anyone ever spiked anything I drank and then provided me with what would prove to be quite an interesting evening, I'm glad I don't remember it.
Ever been called a Tease: Being a boy, I cannot honestly say I get a lot of that. Well, okay, once or thrice recently by Jenny.
Ever been Beaten up: Matter of fact, I have. Grisly details, don't know if I want to go into all of that right now, but maybe it'll pop up in a Blog one day.
Ever Shoplifted: Yes. You're not a cop, are you? No, it's a little embarrassing to say, but a decade or two ago, when no one was looking, my parents and I were in a department store, and I saw a watch I liked, but I knew they wouldn't buy it for me, so I took it. Gee, guess they didn't have the most amped-up security system in that store!
How do you want to Die: I want to die immortalized in a painting: Very old, sitting in the backyard in a lawn chair, looking southeastwardish on a late spring afternoon, staring at the neon horizon, the winds still blowing my hair.
What do you want to be when you Grow Up: Hmmm, at what age are you technically grown up? Well, though I may be grown up and may be this already, I want to be a terrific actor. I want to be a stand-up comedian, if I can possibly get started doing that. I also want to do some singing professionally; I don't know under what circumstances exactly right now, I just want to do it. I've wanted to be famous for some time now, still do, and I also very much want to be alive if and when all of this happens. I figure it will be to my utmost advantage.
What country would you most like to Visit: Good question! We've been to Mexico already--I wasn't exactly wild about it; THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF MOUNTAIN DEW! I AM NOT KIDDING!!--but where do I want to go?...Canada, starters, just to see what's up there besides snow...most of the countries in Europe I want to go to. Sweden especially comes to mind and stands out. "Hi, Roxette! Hi, ABBA!"
In a Boy/Girl..
Favourite Eye Color: Jenny's: A blend of the sapphire and the emerald.
Favourite Hair Color: I'm non-discriminating on this one. I like a girl with a lovely face; I'm pretty happy if she HAS hair.
Short or Long Hair: Which do I prefer? It varies...mostly, I think longer hair's my favorite, you can do more with it and all, but with some girls the short hair just really WORKS.
Height: Ideal height? Can't say I really pay that attention to that feature...Jenny's about, what, 5'5", 5'6"? So I'll go with that.
Weight: Oh, for crying out loud, don't ask me that question! What, are you trying to get me into trouble or something?
Best Clothing Style: Fashion is one of the myriad of things I know zip about, so suffice it to say, I like girls that allow themselves to wear a dress or skirt or blouse (I don't know the difference, personally). I just like someone that allows that kind of femininity in herself.
Number of Drugs I have taken: Does that include Paxil or caffeine? If not, the answer would be zero.
Number of CDs I own: Okay, as promised, I'm here to update this question. Around the turn of June, I broke two thousand. Haven't reached 2,100 quite yet, but I'm willing to bet it's in the cards soon.
Number of Piercings: Zero. Actually, the answer is less than zero. Someone took a nonexistent one from me years ago.
Number of things in my Past I Regret: Wow, I have to give you an exact figure on this one? I guess for the last four questions we exited the In A Boy/Girl... section, huh? I regret not trying to make something more of myself in my earlier years...I regret feeling like I couldn't be myself because of the pressure everybody put on me in school, so...okay, I guess there is an exact number (that I can think of right now, at least): Two.
