About Me

What is important to me... my dogs, my friends, my mom, and my job. treating people well. working hard. having fun. being authentic. that pretty much covers it. I've lived in the US for almost 26 years. I hope to move back to the UK one day, but only if I can work at a great film company, have my dream loft in london, and a stone farm house in the south of France, because one always needs a project house and a reason to go to the hardware store.I love to cook, paint, read, make things, and take care of my friends. I have a serious aversion to affected, aggressive, arrogant, pretentious people. On the other hand, I adore humble, smart, kind people who work hard at making others laugh, and feel comfortable and supported.life is short, be happy and be your real self...This profile was edited with Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5
