i'm a rock-n-roll paperdoll, all glitter & gumdrops

About Me

long story short: I had colon cancer, emergency surgery with an ostomy(a what?), 6 months of chemo (done in may 06), ostomy reversal in aug. 06. this all sucked of course, but I learned and grew in the process, everything has it's purpose in life and so did this. i didn't want anyone to know i had an ostomy cause it made me feel like a freak, if i still had it i'd show and tell everyone, (which i did the last weeks i had it) there is no shame in having one, quite honestly, it turned out not a really big deal and it REALLY REALLY REALLY saved my life. If you have an ostomy, and need to talk, please contact me. If you don't feel comfortable, UOAA.ORG is a great resource. The people are very helpful and knowledgable.(I'm on there too...)now the fun stuff:Jesus, my son's blue eyes and his laugh.playing the drums, hot pink. black. art stuff. religion. family.more drums.indian food(which i'm starting to cook very well. gardens. polka dots.vintage paper dolls.sun on the floor. cold toes in the morning and nite. fried chicked.sweets.dorky quizes. singing. i love life... ice on trees in the sunlight. snow falling around your face, flowers; favorite:(peonies, poppies and tulips)Music is also very important to me. Audiophile. I need it to paint/draw. it sucks me in, make me think, makes me live, makes me breathe, i love a good beat, a good drum solo, a deep bass line, a lyrical genius. ahh, did i mention i LOVE music...?I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
