About Me

short version-almost all my favorite things- eating/sleeping/working/traveling/movies/shows. Long version-I am 34 and have learned that everyday is an opportunity to do good, practice the golden rule and never forget that life is a gift. (I probably shouldn't have paused "Greys Anatomy" to write this). in March of '05 I had the misfortune of going through a near-death experience. However, I wasn't alone. Everyone in my life was there in one way or another. This was a test of courage, patience, the unknown, the power of healing and love. We won, as a team. On a daily basis, Now more than ever, I focus on staying healthy and enjoying life. It's a beauitiful thing. I am more spiritual than religious and I believe in my faith...myself. Let me back up. I was bown in Iowa, raised in Minnesota and spent 12 years in the bay Area. I moved to LA around 9/04. My job, my addiction, is Macintosh. Something I love and do well (Macintosh Consultant). I started my MacMan business in '93 in Oakland, CA and haven't really stopped for a moment. I don't have a chemical addictive bone in my body, however I have ADHD something awful. I like things that relax me since I don't relax easily. I have a younger sister and an older brother and we all make an effort to be close. This is often a struggle. I try to lead as stress-free a life as possible. I don't do drama. I need to learn to. I need to learn to get messy. Even if it seems to go against my DNA. I am a giver to a fault. I am such a sucker. lets end on that.

My Interests

I love hiking and eating and movies and hangig out with people. I fucking love dogs. But above all I have a real passion for travel. I live for it. I prefer International but domestic is fun too.

I'd like to meet:

I like people that challenge me therefore perking my interest. Living in LA I tend to meet the same person over and over. but that's OK. I am no walk in the park either (serioulsy) so I like people that sync with me effortlessly yet bring the drama to the table. Ya'all are rare. I like that. Just like the Mac World, we are an elite group. I would like to meet someone who knows what it means to be a woman and how to treat a man like a man (also; chill, funny, sexy, smart and financially comfortable)

Music:

aah jeez. Love it live and often. Hip-hop, folk, vocals. Anything guitar based. I like the ones that write it and sing it. I like musica that makes me feel a different way each time I listen. To me, music is like art- over time you learn new things and you grow with the piece. You become attached to it. Funny thing is I don't seem to have a musically inclined bone in my body other than to collect, listen and enjoy. If it got vibrations and there is something to be said, then you got my ear.

Movies:

Kill Bill, true romance, drop dead gorgeous, american beauty, primary colors, get shorty, big labowski, rushmore, streets of fire, never ending story, roadhouse, fargo, donnie darko, high art, revenge, straight story, living out loud, beautiful girls, The Assignment, caligula, return to paradise, space balls, blazing sadles, Big Fish, top secret, singing ..ective (original), carlitos way, a bronx tale, hedwig and the angry inch, The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, The Aristrocrats, Team America, Lonestar, The Professional, Carried Away, The Pianist, In the Line of Fire, The Brown Bunny, The Last Boyscout, The Last Seduction

Television:

Growing up in Minnesota trained me to like the TV box. Right now it's House, 24, Scrubs, Daily Show, Da Ali G show, Dave Chappell Show, Entourage, South Park, Simpsons, Resue Me, The Sopranos, Grey's Anatomy

Books:

To me, reading is like cooking, when I actually start doing it I love it but I don't usually put time aside for it. Books I have loved as of recent; DaVinci Code, Harry Potter (I). I am slowly reading Middlesex, Freakanomics and A Million Little Pieces (Thanks Oprah)

Heroes:

People that can deal with life day in and day out without assistance from an outside source. People who are able to make relationships work. My pops - My first hero and a stand up guy sitting down. A business head that you can depend on. He has survived what life has dished out to him. go dad. My mom - Where to begin. She lives out loud and makes sure everyone in the area knows. she is there with her continual laughter and love. She is a lady, a woman, a mom, a sister, an ex-wife, a friend to so many, she is where I came from. My sister - She keeps following her heart (around the world) and stay in cool and love. Love that girl, my baby. My brother - Always staying 3 years ahead of me and not making a big deal out of it. He is like the love child if Fonzie, tom cruise, MacGyver, hugh hephner and a tron had a 5-way.

Relaxed in Austin. We're out.

This doesn't happen often but down here, on my 4th day in Austin I feel relaxed and fed. So nice. I head back to the pressure cooker that is LA today but it is all gravy because it is time to get to ...
