Well I can say I'm an honest down to earth person (surprise surprise), I don't lie and try to treat everyone how I'd like to be treated. My biggest weakness is I'm too soft hearted, I see someone suffering and just feel I should try and help.
I have two teenage kids (one of each) from a failed marriage... hate that word "failed". At least I have like, a mint like, relationship with my kids. I'm an X electronics tech/X programmer and just got sick to death of the constant stress and pressures of these jobs (and I HATED wearing suits). I currently work for a job agency temping all over the SE burbs of Melbourne (liquor distribution centre at the moment). I actually enjoy temping as you get to meet some ace people and try out lots of different jobs...plus it pays well most of the time.
I love browsing the bands and finding those little pearls no one has heard of yet (or maybe I've just never heard of). It amazes me that you can get to message some absolutely brilliantly talented people, and sometimes even get an answer back. I don't say that sarcastically either as a lot of the music folk must have heaps on thier schedules.
I suppose I'd just like to meet some nice people to talk with who ain't gunna judge me too critically! Oh and I don't like being added just to be ignored!!

Karma rules!!

My Interests

The beach, just driving for the hell of driving and seeing where I end up, I love the unkown or the unexpected, I love music and learning to play guitar... and also did I say the beach, and pubs and clubs and just sitting in a sidewalk cafe with good friends and talking shit.
I'd really love to travel OS (especially New York City and London) before too long, the only overseas travel I've done is Philip Island (and I drove over the bridge to get there!!).
I used to ride horses alot! Had my own triple registered mare back in BC days (Before Children).
Hate wasting time on myspace but do a lot of it. I shouldn't really say that because I love gettin on line and chatting to new people.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who is passionate and honest about what they do and honest about what they really want... someone who will accept others for what they are.

All music is Ace. I love music that is trying to get a message across or telling a story about the Artist or whats going on in their world at that time.
