About Me

"Ideas are like rabbits. You get a couple and learn how to handle them, and pretty soon you have a dozen." --John Steinbeck
"There is no such thing as a "self-made" man. We are made up of thousands of others. Everyone who has ever done a kind deed for us, or spoken one word of encouragement to us, has entered into the make-up of our character and of our thoughts, as well as our success." -- George Adams, philosopher
"I am as bad as the worst, but, thank God, I am as good as the best." --Walt Whitman
"You have brains in your head, you have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And you are the one who'll decide where to go." -- Dr. Seuss
"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up." --Pablo Picasso
"Our problem is not that we aim too high and miss, but that we aim too low and hit." --Aristotle
"I have found that if you love life, life will love you back." --Arthur Rubinstein
"The person who would like his dreams to come true must stay awake" --Richard Wheeler
"The best place to find a helping hand is at the end of your own arm." --Unknown

My Interests



Weekend trips! I get out of town as much as possible. When I'm not busy with work, I keep myself busy at the beach, the lake, the snow... the casino, the basketball game, the gym... I get restless if I stay in one spot too long! I like hanging out with my friends at my house, at a bar, at a Warriors game... ... I also recently have developed a love for the Sharrrrrks! Thanks to Dustin, Sharks games are my favorite thing in the world now, besides him of course! I love driving. I like seeing new places, eating new foods, trying new things and meeting new people. On "rainy days" I do a lot of drawing and painting. My two favorite places in the world are San Diego and Las Vegas, in that order.

I'd like to meet:



Music:

Method Man and Fiona Apple!! I like everything. Yes, everything! I like rap AND country! And I don't think that's weird. I like anything I can sing along to. Sing, sing, sing. I sing all day long (as long as I'm by myself).

Movies:

My all-time favorite will always be E.T. Other than that, my other three favorites are Braveheart, Boondock Saints and Office Space. I could watch those three over and over. I don't really like girly movies. I like scary movies and comedies. I would rather have a bunch of friends over to lounge around with hella pillows and milk duds and watch a movie at my house instead of sitting in the uncomfortable theater.

Television:

CSI, The Simpsons, ATHF and Letterman. But I really don't like to sit around watching TV, unless it's late and there's nothing else to do. There is always something more productive to do than sit on the couch!

Books:

Grisly fiction and murder mysteries. Stephen King, Peter Straub, Chuck Palahniuk, Dean Koontz... Right now I am reading The Stand which is the longest freakin book ever, but it is awesome and I recommend you read it!

Heroes:

Heroes Schmeeeeroes
