About Me



My World Visitor Map!

AIM - SmokeyCarlton

I'm easy going, be my friend!

I took a personality test and these are the traits it listed for me, and I think it was pretty accurate:

messy, tough, disorganized, fearless, not rule conscious, likes the unknown, rarely worries, rash, attracted to the counter culture, rarely irritated, positive, resilient, abstract, not a perfectionist, risk taker, strange, weird, self reliant, leisurely, dangerous, anti-authority, trusting, optimistic, positive, thrill seeker, likes bizarre things, sarcastic

My Interests


My niece Zoe and nephew Quinn.. aren't they adorable??

girls with tattoos and piercings, ROAD TRIPS!!, southern accents, hot summer nights in Vegas, thunderstorms, the beach at night, bonfires, snow flurries at sea, sunset on the Oregon coast (I've got an awesome place to watch from), people who arent superficial, shallow, or fake (that's why I hate so many of you.. haha..jk?)

I love the outdoors.. camping, fishing, hiking, climbing, rapelling, spelunking, snowboarding (I suck.. haven't been in years) and I really want to try sky diving.. hrmm.. maybe one day- want to join me? I'm definitely looking forward to getting to do more of that stuff as the weather improves.

My family and friends are important to me. I've come to appreciate the good family/friend ties especially when living so far away from them. They're a great source of support.

Love to travel and explore new places.. These are the places I've notched so far:

US:
California
Arizona
Washington
Nevada
Florida
Georgia

Outside US:

I love going new places so if any friends want to plan a trip I'm game!
