My Interests

MUSIC!!! Bees. Trees. Exercising my imagination. Dancing. Books. Fairies. Painting. Exploring the restaurants in Baltimore. Spooning w/ my kitty. Wrestling w/ people (not the official kind, but the goofing around kind). Amusing my friends. Houses. Water. Being an individual. Surprises. Birthdays. All night chats. The warmth of another person's body. Storms. Snow. Warm. Down. Karaoke . . . And my latest addiction: SALSA!!!!!

I'd like to meet:

Ok. Seriously guys. I'm flattered that you think I have "nice pics" or a "nice profile" or I "sound like fun" but I DON'T WANT TO DATE YOU!! If you have something real to say, say it. But PLEASE don't hit on me. I'll just ignore you. ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ -------------IF YOU SEND ME A FRIEND REQUEST, PLEASE SEND ME A MESSAGE TELLING ME WHO YOU ARE UNLESS IT'S OBVIOUS THAT I ALREADY KNOW YOU.

With all the suspicious profiles and crazy amounts of spamming on here, I'm no longer looking at profiles before denying them. If the name and photo don't look familiar, I hit "deny". If you send me a message, though, and it turns out we do know each other, then I'm happy to add you as a friend.

ALSO, I love reconnecting with old friends on MySpace, so if you used to know me, please stop by and say hi! I'm not interested in using this site for dating, though. I appreciate the sweet emails I've gotten, but I don't feel that this is an ideal way to meet people. If someone has something in particular they want to chat about, that's great, but I probably won't respond to messages from strangers who just say, "Hi. Let's chat." I'm not good at keeping up with the friends that I have already (but I'm working on it!!!), so I'm not going to be able to keep up with a bunch of random new people, too. So if you've already met me, please say hi even if it's been a while since we talked. If you just found me on a search, though, I'm afraid I'm not organized enough to be a good friend to you anyway, so I appreciate the thought, but you're better off choosing someone else to be your new friend.

Music:

Groovelily, 2 Skinnee J's, U2, Sting, Depeche Mode, Voltaire, Venus Hum, Bon Jovi, 80's one hit wonders, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Cherry Poppin' Daddies, Nellie McKay!, Dead Can Dance, Madonna, Josh Ritter, Kris Delmhorst, Dave Matthews Band, Billy Idol, Barry Louis Polisar, Blue Man Group, Bowie, Trans Siberian Orchestra, Type O Negative, The Joint on XM, Jamie Cullum, Colin Hay

Movies:

Reign of Fire, Underworld, Dangerous Beauty, Artemesia, I'm With Lucy, Hamlet (w/ Kenneth Brannaugh, not Mel Gibson!!), The Last Unicorn, Labyrinth, The Neverending Story, several different versions of Alice in Wonderland

Television:

I've been living off Netflix rather than actual TV for a while now and I've gotta say I like it this way. I don't even miss cable anymore. I get a steady stream of Sex and the City, Huff, 3rd Rock From the Sun, Queer as Folk, and anything else that strikes my fancy. Plus, I have the latest season of Scrubs on DVD waiting for me courtesy of Amazon! Life is good.

Books:

Anything and everything by Neil Gaiman (esp. Good Omens)! Dean Koontz. Alice in Wonderland. Currently reading The Knife Man. Fascinating biography. Disgusting, but fascinating.

Heroes:

Maya!! No one cuts, styles, highlights, etc. hair like her!!

Yup, that's me: extremely serious and a total neat freak. Clearly Blogthings has not seen my condo! I'll give them the unusual passions part, though.   You Are Bert..http://images.blogthings.com/...
