About Me

I can spot fake people a mile away.
I know what you're trying to hide and I know your whole story.
Dont bother me with your BOO-HOOs and how much you hate your dad.
None of this "I wanna be different just like everybody else" self-proclaimed "hardcore" crap; we're in this game every man for himself.
Get over it.
I'm certain we all know someone who provides us with daily insights into the tenacity with which some people can deny reality...
If you didn't like me then, you're sure as hell not gonna like me now.
I like routine. I don't like uncertainty and indecision. I do, however, appreciate spontaneous acts of excitement and I'm easy to please but hard to impress. I forgive but I don't forget. I don't trust easily, especially girls and co-workers. I like most animals because they're objective. I will only argue a point if I know for a fact that I'm right. I love my family and keep a small, close circle of friends. My fiance is the most amazing person to come into my life in 28 years.
He turned me into a cuddler.
I am not a cuddler.

My Interests

You will never understand why I like what I do...

I'd like to meet:

As fate would have it, I have either met or not met certain people in my lifetime and I like the way that works.

Music:

I am a fierce music fan. I appreciate music for the way it makes me feel and I listen to almost everything...I don't discriminate when it comes to talent.

Bono and Eddie Vedder have the sexiest male vocals of all time.
If you're a band, don't even think about emailing me.

Movies:

The Wizard of Oz, anything by John Hughes or Kevin Smith [except Chasing Amy, that was retarded] I love the movies I grew up with; Labyrinth, Princess Bride, Willy Wonka, Neverending Story, etc. And I love old Hollywood musicals complete with a Gene Kelly tap number and a lucky dame in the end.

Television:

Ugly Betty, 24, Best Week Ever, Celebrity Fit Club, Charm School... but I don't watch a lot of TV...

Books:

I can't stand people who think they're too cool to enjoy a good read.
Check out this Magazine

Heroes:

...are for people who can't save themselves.
...is a stupid show.
