I am here for Friends

About Me


Life is short. I wanna have fun and share good times with my family and friends. I am lucky to have found the love of my life in Los Angeles of all places. He was right under my nose for 8 years before I figured it out. I take things seriously but I also like to laugh about it. Liars and cheaters can go ahead and skip my page. I'm not interested in your game. Movies and music are my source of fun. oH and good food! I love sushi and trying new things. Dancing is completely underrated. I like to go out, but I am also completely happy staying at home, cooking and hanging on the couch.

My Interests

Cutting edge music, good films, cheesy films, warm bubble baths, smiles and giggles, good times, summer nights, amazing food, style, home improvement, family (mine and yours).. I love my cats and I make a strong effort not to talk about them too much, but they are the best!

I'd like to meet:

Madonna, Ron Paul, The Editors, Justin Timberlake.. oh, on HERE... well then...Nashville locals with common interests that can show me what's fun around here!!!Truly talented modest rock stars of the future...Honest, happy, productive and positive people...Myspace to me is a great tool to get back in touch with people I have lost over the years and a way to get closer to those in my every day life. If you are looking to simply collect people, please move on. I could complain about all of the bands that try to add me, but I have found some rare gems on here. Just know that I am not into country, metal or rap. If your music is similar to any of the artists listed in my favorites, I may actually dig it.
