About Me

Who am I? Let's see....I am a person that does stop to smell the roses. I like simple things, but simple things that a lot of people either take for granted or don't pay attention to. Life is too short people, enjoy it..revel in the small things, treat others well, for your own sake, STOP and smell the God Damn roses!

Some of the things that are important to me: A song that takes my breath away. An article that tweaks something in my little brain and makes me see things in a new light. A pint of Vino's Pinnacle IPA. Letting someone cut in front of me at the store because they look frazzled and need a break. Smiling at everyone. A good book. Always tipping at least 20%. Spooning with my husband in the mornings and talking and talking. Thai Curry. Watching the look in one of my kid's eyes when they finally "get it". Making faces at babies when their parents aren't looking and making them giggle. Actually listening to people. Kicking my husband's ass at Unreal Tournament. Moving turtles out of the road. Touching strangers on the arm when I'm talking to them. Spring, when everything is starting to peek out after being "dead" all winter.

Things I don't like: Hateful people, intolerance, people who dominate conversations, organized religion, beets, George W. Bush, other drivers who won't let you merge, people who just go along with the status quo without questioning things, cold rainy days...

My Interests

Good music, beer, books, and conversations......

I'd like to meet:

I am strictly here to keep in touch with some friends and to be able to peek at other people's MySpace sites....ha.

Oh..or does it mean if I could meet anyone in the world who would that be? Well, let me see. Counting dead people, I would have to include Ghandi on that list. The Marquis De Sade...bet he would be a trip to hang out with. Anais Nin. Benicio Del Toro...because he's dead sexy. Benjamin Franklin. Samuel Clemmons. Well...since most of the people on my list are dead, guess I would be hanging with Benicio. Due to the fact that this is pure fantasy I can imagine myself doing whatever I want to with or to him...right?



Music:

The Gourds, Mulehead, American Princes, Ryan Adams, M. Ward, Alejandro Escovedo, Social Distortion, The Cramps, Green Day, 800 Bullets (ex husband's band..pretty damn good music)...etc..etc.... Anything from roots music, to reggae, to blues, to rock, to punk....not picky of the genre as long at it touches my soul.

Movies:

Snatch...Anything Monty Python... Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels...Pulp Fiction...seems as if I enjoy a bit of violence with my humor...or is it a bit of humor with my violence???

Television:

I don't care for most things on TV...thank science for tivo..so I can watch the few shows I enjoy whenever the hell I wanna. Scrubs, Arrested Development, The Boondocks, The Venture Brothers, The Daily Show...you know, educational TV.

Books:

I have stacks of books everywhere in my house....I have a voracious appetite for reading. I've been on a Terry Pratchett kick lately. Read the Tales of the Otori recently...they were wonderful! *UPDATE* I read Little Green Men and Thank You For Smoking..both books are GREAT! Such a humorous look at human nature. Thank you Christopher Buckley for some funny stuff. Now I'm tackling Noble House.

Heroes:

Anyone with the balls to stand up for themselves.

Is Bush's memory slipping???

President Bush was recently interviewed on 60 Minutes. In this interview he was asked about the toll the war is taking on the soldiers and his brief service in the National Guard was referenced. In ...

I Salute Jimmy Carter

First of all, I need to point out that I am a very liberal person. I am not a racist, nor a bigot. I judge people by their actions, not what they say. That said, I am dumbfounded by the fact that i...

Let's all say a little prayer (even us non-believers).....

a little prayer that the new Democratic majority in both the House and the Senate can get us out of this cesspool that good ole' GW Bush has gotten us into. Can I get a witness! Amen Brothers and Si...

A brand new year....

Today is the start of a brand new year. My husband and I woke up this morning talking fondly about the past. Mistakes that we have made over the years, things that we may or may not have done differ...

To Blog...or not to Blog...that is the question...

So, I've been perusing other people's myspace profiles. I have noticed that there a large number of people writing blogs. I have read some of the blogs and have found some to be quite entertaining.....
