About Me

Myspace Backgrounds
I like to take the scenic route, even if I'm running late. I'm a free spirit and I like to go with the flow. But I'm still learning to slow down. Just go with it. Don't worry. There are Signs are everywhere, you just have to pay attention and Improvise.
I can't stand small talk. Let's talk about life - whether it be deep or petty topics.
I like to read dictionaries and memorize really weird words and their meanings.
I Love mowing the lawn.
I talk to my dog like she's a person and she responds like she's a dog who thinks she is a person.
Why do the wrong guys say the right things?
I can handle myself well in large groups and crowded places. I even enjoy public speaking and performing. But I prefer to be alone or one on one. A group of 3 would be a maximum preference.
For all you unbelievers - girls DO poop!
I'm easy to please and easily entertained. I hardly ever get bored... unless I'm at a lame party.
I like to do things that shock people and break barriers. Like throw a football, tuneup my own car, forgive, listen, talk to a homeless guy, burp, dance a jig when there's no music, and point out great looking boobs (ok, maybe that's boob envy), among other things... except farting.
I really don't like text messaging, although I've been doing a lot of it lately.
I don't have a favorite song, movie, band, restaurant, or book. I have lists and I'm eclectic. I crave variety and diversity in all aspects. I'm an explorer, I'm curious, fascinated by ideas, and enchanted by information. I'm an adventurer. I hate routine, limits and labels. I quest for experience, but I'm never satisfied. The process is more important than the outcome. But I do have a favorite color... I just don't feel the need to blanket everything I own in it.
I light candles, cook nice dinners, put on music, and enjoy wine at home for myself. I don't ever get bored when I'm by myself and I treat myself well when I've been on good behavior.
I'm not easily embarrassed. I laugh too hard at jokes and stories (especially my own, ha), even if no one else is laughing. I have a great sense of humor.
I'm kind of competitive. The thought of being 'average' in anything really bothers me.
People don't know that I'm actually very shy. I've worked it out for the most part and can usually overcome it. Now I'm called 'reserved.' I think most people don't expect me to be, but even though I'm serious, I'm pretty silly and random-- people figure that out really fast and either think I'm weird and then get weird around me, or think I'm funny. I don't care.
I don't like my bread toasted.
According to popular definition, I am one that plays hard to get. But I DO NOT play games. It is what it is. And I have nothing to hide... although I think I can work on putting myself out there a little more and not be afraid of being a fool. You learn when you become vulnerable, and I need to trust that the unknown is not as bad as I think it could be as long as I'm being REAL.
I like talking and connecting, but I don't particularly like talking on the phone and I'm not really that good at it.
Despite my support for progessive thought and adversity towards narrow minded rules and opinions, I am sometimes old fashioned. There are certain things that I feel should continue to follow tradition and manners - the reasoning behind that being BECAUSE IT WORKS. I think in some aspects of our society nowadays, we've gone too far in the opposite direction.
I pray everyday that I am, and continue to be, a resilient person.
I really don't understand blue toliet water.
I drink my coffee black.
My friend and I once killed zombies armed only with Lysol and a pooper scooper. True story.
I hate wearing makeup. But I do feel prettier when wearing it. I'm girly on the outside, but a tomboy at heart.
I love words that sound like what they mean... like bubble and undulate and lackadaisical, Metamorphosis, so many... give me more!!
It bugs me when people open up chip bags upside down.
I hate the placement of the button to toot the horn on my car! (two little buttons on the bottom of the steering wheel) Who's bright idea was it to allow me to break my thumbs out of frustration and alarm?? Or have me unsuccessfully warn the other cars because I naturally reacted by punching the center of the wheel SILENTLY!
I like cheese that smell like feet.
I take advantage of as much natural light and air as I can. And I love driving with my windows down and I do it every chance I get.
Whenever I find myself losing patience and compassion, I take comfort in reminding myself that people are people and we all want and experience the same things and emotions in life.
I like the creativity of fashion, but I really hate shopping. Except for grocery shopping, LOVE grocery shopping.
I buy books and then never read them. I love to read. Actually the truth is, I'll read a book right away if I borrow it, but I'll wait if I buy it and then eventually forget because I'm on to the next book that I really wanted to read.
I'm not very materialistic and I don't replace what's not broken. My TV is 13 years old and still kicking.
I want a guy to take the time to teach me how to play Madden.
I'm a diplomat.
I've never been a morning person. I snooze 20 times before I actually get up. I love to sleep in but I hate that I've slept in once I get up. I don't get as much done as I probably should because I am almost always bargaining with myself.
I always keep my nails short and I air dry my hair. I'm SO hardcore about air drying my hair, that I went for a walk outside with wet hair in 14 degree weather and my hair froze - for REAL. (except, I WOULD have air dried my hair THAT time, but I didn't have a blow dryer in my hotel room)
My junk drawer is overflowing. People who have seen my place probably find that hard to believe.
I go to movies by myself and it's FUN.
Oprah is black. But she can't dance. I'm just saying.
And if you think it ends there, you're in for a surprise.

What's the first thing that pops into your head when asked to fill in the blank: "I'd like to meet: ?" I think it's interesting how many people use this section to talk about what they are looking for in a prospect of a significant other. I'm not judging, just sayin'.

Movies:

I pretty much like everything, especially if it isn't Hollywood, old movies like on AMC/TMC, anything action packed so I can watch it with my mother without having to pause and explain everything... foreign films, Comedy, Documentary, Satire, Indie, Coming of Age, Kung fu, horror, vampires, anything to do with psyche, B-Movies (I just can't turn away), and for some reason movies surrounding sports (like football) really excite me. They're so suspenseful!

Television:

I don't watch a whole lot but:

House, Daily Show, documentaries, educational shows like on Discovery, etc.

Books:

YES PLEASE

Heroes:

My mom.
People who do what they love and are successful at it.
Survivors.
People who know when change is needed, and then do it.
People who do their own research.
People who would rather be vulnerable and in the moment than let opportunities that are worth it pass them by.

Pink elephants on parade....

There's an elephant in my room and it's blocking my way to the kitchen.   There are dirty dishes piled high in my sink and I'm hungry for a turkey sandwich.   My deep thoughts yearn for t...
