I am here for Friends

About Me

"DON'T WASTE TIME LOOKING BACKWARD. YOU'LL JUST TRIP."

MySpace Avatars
I used to think that I knew myself...lately I think that I don't know myself at all. But I will tell you some of the things I am pretty sure of. I live on the fine edge of that blade that's consciousness on one side and dream on the other, that thin silver horizon where you hover right before falling asleep, and right before completely waking. I am very open and love conversations, no matter how strange they are. There isn't a question you can ask me that you won't get an answer *lol*. I am kind of shy and I try to hide that by talking a lot. Many people have no idea how shy I really am. I'm peaceful and funny and can also be very quiet at times. I love my son Skylar and he gives my life meaning. He's really an easy child to raise...he's funny and smart and I feel really lucky to be his mom. I love to read and when I'm not with my animals, with Skylar, working or sleeping I'll be reading. I read anything and everything and I am very thankful for all the wonderful friends who lend me their books and share their poetry and stories with me. Animals are my passion and I have many... horses, dogs, a Cockatoo parrott, chinchillas, surgar gliders, rabbitts, ducks and a bunch of Himalayan cats. I'm a fan of the race horses, and my horse 2 Hot 2 Cruz Shaylee is directly from the lines of the famous race horse Man O War. That always amazes me...that I have a part of history in my barn *smile*.......I'M THE GIRL WHO LAUGHS OUTLOUD IN THE MIDDLE OF SILENCE AT SOMEHTHING THAT HAPPENED THE DAY BEFORE....
