About Me


CHECK OUT MY FRIEND, RICHARD'S VIDEO!!! His band is called THE MARCHES and if you like what you hear, go get yourself some more at www.myspace.com/themarches.
I believe in the right to not make your bed... I have lengthy conversations with my stuffed animals, particularly Stimpy, my beautiful wooly Bantha, and my Gorn beanie baby with his cute 70's vest... I'm finally learning how to say what I want instead of just trying to please everyone, and oddly enough, everyone ends up happier that way... Garlic stuffed green olives and beer are rad. As are Bottle Caps, Lemonheads, and Abbazabba's... I like things in miniature, like those mini sample tents in the camping section at Target. I want to put one of those up on my front lawn in hopes that a squirrel moves in... Our planet has traveled around the sun 34 times since I plopped out onto it, which I'm told by some is hard to believe. For that I have my mom to thank. She's 64 and still loves kicking off her flip flops to climb the trees in the garden and pick her exotic fruit for everyone...My papa likes to say he's just the wheelbarrow pusher of the garden, but he does a lot, too... My parents are the best couple I've ever known... My mom also wears a pareo like nobody's business... "Fashion" is a touchy subject for my boyfriend and me, but not in the way you might think... I promise to never stop listening to criticism and growing and bettering myself... It's been over ten years since my Grandpa died and I think about him every day... I like to twirl around while blasting old video game music like Mario Bros and Street Fighter II... My brother's new 65 inch high-def plasma flat screen is not unlike heaven on earth... I think I would be a completely different person if it weren't for my big brother... I have serious emotional difficulty getting through that ending scene of King Kong (I know I KNOW how it’s gonna end)... My beautiful dog, Oscar, is an old soul. Although he's in a young body that's falling apart, with one eye gone, four teeth pulled, and a blown out knee. My mom always said that our animals catch all the misfortune for us so that we don't have to (we also have a Lab in a wheel chair and a handicapped potbelly pig with deformed hooves)... I believe I've lived a charmed life and I will do everything in my power to give my children the same... Genuine communication, even in the form of an argument, feels wonderful... My parents were never preachy, but instead taught us through their own unwavering example... My boyfriend makes me feel like I'm one in a million... Sometimes I get so happy I can’t breathe... I've been called naïve my entire life by all the cynics and pessimists who I'm finally realizing might just never get me. It's cool. I’m not sure I’ll ever get them...
TODAY'S INSPIRATIONS: Rob Bottin created those amazing creature effects for John Carpenter’s The Thing when he was only 22 years old! And that Warren Buffet guy who donated $37 BILLION to Bill Gates’ world health/poverty solving foundation...
TODAY'S ASPIRATIONS: Write more, create more, cook more (ha!), LEARN more, GIVE more, communicate better, listen better, empathize better, drop ALL my fears and LOVE deeper, richer, fuller than I have ever in my entire life!!!
