About Me

Yes, I am a girl named Clayton. "ClayN", if you're hispanic. I grew up in the huge city of Athens, Texas - population of 10,000. I never wore Rocky Mountain jeans but I did have a boyfriend in 7th grade named 'Bubba' - we were a hot item for about 2 weeks.. I think he's in jail now. Since the good old Athens days - I have lived in Oxford, Mississippi - Engelberg, Switzerland - Tampa, Florida - Santa Fe, New Mexico - and Dallas. I have been in Dallas for 8 years now, I think.
I'm done with corporate crap and now I own and run a company called 'DEADBEAT LEATHER' ---shameless plug.
I have 2 dogs. If they could talk one would have an old man's British accent and the other would sound like a slutty girl.
In my next life, I'm going to come back as a wealthy Latina that works out obsessively.
Check out my favorite artist: Mikki Mallow CHECK OUT her video from her I See Dead People Show - it was amazing! CLICK HERE
I hate curry, goat cheese and am allergic to onions. You'll have to get over that... it's how God wanted it.
I can't stand pretention so Dallas can feel like a jail - but I dig living around my friends and family. Give me a cold Chimay or a Miller Lite with jalepeno slices in it and I'm a happy gal.

My Interests

Airstreams, metal work, buying tacky road trip gifts for my friends, spontaneous day trips, my salsa garden, crab rangoon, the beach, crawfish and beer, Pecos New Mexico, sunlight, live music (when I'm not with music snobs), sitting by a lake, swamps and alligators, sriracha sauce, art shows, paranormal stories/ghost tours, truck stop shopping, xtreme sports, motor sports (anything fast and loud), good wine, cheese, my neigborhood and the weirdos that reside in it and of course, the FOE. --- and anything to keep me busy!

..

I'd like to meet:

Neil Diamond, Dolly Parton, Parker Posey, the cast of The Shield, Johnny Knoxville, Ayn Rand.... blah blah blah. Who cares.

More importantly, who I would like to meet so I could slap them:

Dustin Diamond, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Radiohead, anyone else that sings in male falsetto - gasp, Britney Spears, Bill O'Reily, Bill Mahr, Borat, the people that put the Girls Gone Wild video commercials on tv, Rosie O'Donnell, Avril Lavigne, Beyonce, all the kids on Sweet 16... oh! Laura Miller.

Music:

Dolly Parton, Neil D, Buckcherry, Old 70's Country, Space Hog, Fuel, Kasabian, BuckCherry, Faster Pussycat, Willie Nelson, KMFDM, NIN, Smokey Robinson, Rob Zombie.... I'm musically confused. Sorry, NO Radiohead. I want them to stop. Stop now before it gets out of hand.

MY NEIGHBORS ROCK!!!!

Movies:

Dazed and Confused, Waiting for Guffman, Reservior Dogs, The Others, The Misadventures of Margaret..... I like movies with suspense - not horror. I like action movies that don't have any sappy romance - that's just irritating!

Television:

The Shield, Lost, Food Network, Top Chef, Discovery Channel, WildBoyz...

Books:

The Fountainhead, Eagle and the Rose, Atlas Shrugged, Wuthering Heights, non fiction, biographies... I don't know why thinking of books is sooo hard. Maybe I've limited myself b/c I don't like fiction very much.

Heroes:

When I worked in social services I met some amazing people that are still my heroes. My worst day doesn't compare to what they have suffered through.

MY NIECE AND NEPHEW IN BRAZIL... I miss them!
