I am here for Friends

About Me

Canadian/ Trinidadian (Italian, Venezuelan, French, English), brunette, green eyes. I have an inability to concentrate on one thing at a time, so can generally be found doing about three things at once. Artist (paintings, furniture, jewellery, sculpting... whatever), love my family, animals, the smell of sandalwood and a weekend on the beach. Avid reader, music and movie fan.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Robin Williams, Steve Martin, Jon Stewart- I'd love to get a glimpse inside those minds... there's just so many! Billy Rose, Rembrandt, Walt Disney, Leonardo da Vinci, Groucho Marx, Jim Henson, Shakespeare, C.S. Lewis... can we list dead people? Oh, and Santa Claus.(There's tons more, but I can't list everyone!)

My Blog

Marathon Man, Calendars and Menopause

Haven't written in a long time, so... So many things have been popping in and out of my brain, causing a kind of photo-flash thing in my head at night (not good)... Firstly, just recently read Marath...

I'm going blind!!

What the Hooch is going on? This is a topic once discussed by the wise and wonderful Mr. F, but bids readdressing. When the mighty N first spoke of it, the issue was small, but has grown to outrageous...

therapy with claws

Is there anything more therapeutic than a big, fat furry cat curling up with you, purring, when you're tired, miserable and feeling sick?I didn't think so.

what does change really mean?

As I'm writing this, I've got the television on. I'm not really watching the show, having seen it, and many incarnations, telling the story of Rosa Parks. I'm checking my email, responding to messages...

Holy PR

So I saw an ad. (I've seen it several times. I've also seen several ads, for the smartasses out there who were bound to ask.) It's a new series with Holly Hunter where, if I am correct, she looks for ...

Love in the time of Dengue

The cult of O

I respect Oprah Winfrey. I think she's a powerful person who's achieved a lot, and could probably win the American presidency in a landslide if she tried. That being said, what is it with faithful fan...
