About Me

i never knew love like this before. i am fiercely loyal, and have little interest in anyone who isn't. definitely suspicious of really happy people, respect bravery but not stupidity, and value good friendship above nearly all else. i have 3 adorable dogs with silly nicknames, one of whom is now an angel. i dig bitching but not whining, the curious and even the cynical (but not the negative), and people who aren't afraid to be themselves.

My Interests

angels (living and non-), music, mayhem, madness, piglet, piano, ponies, dessert, dogs, culture shock, sass, trouble and the art of looking for it, medicalese, latin languages, the religiously confused, ez-pass, the shuttle

I'd like to meet:

smart, unaffected people with a sense of humor and something of substance to say. anyone who rescued or is at the very least obsessed with their dog. method man fans. chicks with decks. somebody who loves to dance like no one's looking. someone who can tell me how not to look ridiculous in pictures. a fashionista who is dying to teach me how to accessorize using more than the 2 belts and 2 necklaces that i own. innovative tattoo artists. narcissistic, self-absorbed types, anyone cultivating a substance-abuse problem or sporting a tazmanian devil holding a beer tattoo need not apply.

Music:

probably not yours. sorry.

Movies:

current rave: borat, little miss sunshine. favorites: silly comedies, indie / foreign / interesting. anything christopher guest: spinal tap, best in show, a mighty wind, waiting for guffman.. .

Television:

entourage, scrubs, six feet under (WHY did it have to end?), the sopranos, discovery channel, A+E, law and order. the a-team and knight rider.

Books:

BOOKS: oranges are not the only fruit, stella in heaven, pack of two, tuesdays with morrie, found dogs, les mouches, netter's atlas of human anatomy, le petit nicolas (haha) AUTHORS: gertrude stein, flannery o'connor, bell hooks, nabokov. (too many good everything to list them all)

Heroes:

i am open to suggestion here. we're looking for heart, not balls, thank you.
