About Me

Well, it seems that I am to be here in the Hamptons for yet another winter! Not really sure that I'm thrilled with this, but I am kinda looking forward to adventuring with the friends I've made up here...although I miss my friends down in the warmth of Florida!!! As for about me....I don't know that I can give a complete description of myself....I'm me: fun (but not usually funny), caring (but don't like to be thought of as nice), difficult (but usually willing to talk), shy (but happy to play the social butterfly), gregarious (but deeply appreciative of my "me" time), adventurous (but often scared to take that first step), afflicted with wanderlust (but ready to settle down in my home), filled with drive (but good at procrastinating).....and the contradictions roll on and on! Beyond all that, I'm a girl who has come to realize that I'm lucky because I have people in my life who love me, for me, I'm lucky because I have my health...and I'm lucky because I have myself. I hope that I always take every chance that life gives me...

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet the world! Nah, seriously...I like to meet people but am terrified of being rejected. So, I come off as slightly stand-offish or cold...or sometimes stuck-up. I love to meet people who can look outside themselves and appreciate all that is here. ----oh, I didn't answer the question.....hmmm. OK, I guess I'd like to meet someone who has goals and has drive, who is still a "physical" kind of person and cares for and is aware of their appearance, and is also someone who has values and morals (even if they are not necessarily my own) but is open enough to accept that what they "know" may not be the only truth and that change is growth, and growth is life.

re: idle thoughts

Well....here I am again....wandering aimlessly about the keyboard. It's quiet, with the hum of the refrigerator, in the background...and from outside, the singing of the frogs: a vague chil...

lonely thoughts

There are moments where your soul is said to be singing.....and then there are moments where, yeah.....your soul is singing...but it's singing a lament, or maybe it's just the descant of a glorious du...
