About Me

I'm half Irish, half French reincarnation of Scarlett O'Hara. I love all things historical, and I am searching for a deeper spiritual truth to everything. I'm very loyal and a terriffic friend to those who deserve it. I am a person of conviction and passions. To me life is almost not worth living unless done with passion, energy, and excitement. I look for love out there, but I'm not willing to settle for a luke-warm person or relationship. I love to party and go out, especially to kareoke. My background is in the Theatre Arts, which I try to make pay as a career. I also play flute and guitar and I do sing. I view life with a special blend of hope, optimism, pessimism, and cynicism. I'm a little crazy, I say things off the cuff. I can laugh at myself, but will also laugh at you. Fair, honest, blunt to a fault, but like I've always said ; Why lie when the truth is so much more fun! No one can say I'm boring, I know that much! I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

My Interests

I'm interested in movies, music, theatre, television, politics, egyptology, theology, metaphysics, philosophy, history, astrology, past lives, garden and home design, drinking, parties, meeting quality people, and sec with lots of kissing. More importantly I'm not interested in pain, violence, hatred, corruption, or war. I think people need to be nice to each and do what they can for each other.

CREATE YOUR OWN! - or - GET PAID TO TAKE SURVEYS!

I'd like to meet:

People who have a goal, dream, or ideal. People that are self aware and understand what's really important in life. They should have an opinion but not a fixed opinion, because you should always keep an open mind. And they should never take life too seriously. We're here to have fun! Honest, I just talked to God and that's what She told me!

Music:

I enjoy alot of different music. Being a musician I find beauty in all forms of music. My influences vary from Oldies and Jazz to Ska and Punk. I find alot of rap and hip hop music seems to sound the same so I don't listen to it much, but I still appreciate it as an art form. Some of my favorite artist are Ani Difranco, Fiona Apple, The Indigo Girls, Rage Against the Machine, Prince, Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson (before he got creepy), Madonna, Ella Fitzgerald, Nina Simone, Big Brother and the Holding Company, Simon & Garfunkel, Michael Buble, Frank Sinatra, the Black Eyed Peas, and the Flogging Monkeys -

Television:

My favorite shows are The West Wing, Friends, CSI, Shark, Heroes, History Shows, Will and Grace, So You Think You Can Dance?, Rome, and Sex in the City. But I watch movies more than I watch TV.
Mysterious, elegant, creative and calm. You are a sprite of the Water. Creative and one of
the most beautiful of sprites, you strike
wonder and curiosity into the hearts and minds
of all. Even though you are capable of
attraction and seduction you are way above all
that, you understand the true meaning of life
and are very open and understanding of lifes
mysteries, most likely you are one of them. You
are respectful of all ways of life and do not
judge one due to their position or station in
life. You are gifted in the ways of
understanding and given the chance are usually
full of good, wise advice. But your not the
type to take the stand and express such things.
Your laid back nature can be troubling, you
don't take many risks and prefer to keep things
as they are. You are one of the most unique of
sprites.

Books:

My favorite author is Richard Bach. He wrote Jonathan Livingston Seagull, Illusions, One, and Bridge Across Forever, among others. I also love the Celestine Prophesy by James Redfield, Animal Dreams by Barbara Kingsolver, the Once and Future King by TW White, 1984 by George Orwell, and Past Lives Future Lives by Dr Bruce Goldberg. These are some of the books that adorn my study. Along with Astrology guides, ghost stories, Self Help, and Erotica books.
You are the Devil card. The Devil is based on the
figure Pan, Lord of the Dance. The earthy
physicality of the devil breeds lust. The
devil's call to return to primal instincts
often creates conflict in a society in which
many of these instincts must be kept under
control. Challenges posed by our physical
bodies can be overcome by strength in the
mental, emotional, and spiritual realms. Pan
is also a symbol of enjoyment and rules our
material creativity. The devil knows physical
pleasure and how to manipulate the physical
world. Material creativity finds its output
in such things as dance, pottery, gardening,
and sex. The self-actualized person is able
to accept the sensuality and usefulness of
the devil's gifts while remaining in control
of any darker urges. Image from The Stone
Tarot deck.
