Life is not about the amount of breaths you take, it's about the moments that take your breath away.

About Me

I'm a lucky HawaiIrish girl who gets paid to talk to people I admire and respect. I love to laugh, quote The Simpsons, play Scrabble, spend time with my adorable nephews, and view great art. If you'll be my friend, I will be very loyal to you and speak highly of you and drive you to the airport when I can and bring you soup when you're sick and be your confidante and biggest supporter and listen to you BUT don't lie to me (even if you think it's what's best for me) or waste my time with self-imposed drama. I have zilch patience for women who bitch about all men being jerks when they'd rather date Hitty McGee over a genuine nice guy or men who wonder where the nice girls are and why can't they find one when all they go after are brainless bimbos with eating disorders.I'm a big kid. I like the Muppets. Spongebob Squarepants. Dr. Seuss.I have a weird fascination with older, bloated character actors from the British Isles--I think Brendan Gleeson, Ray Winstone, Brian Cox, and Tom Wilkinson are hot. I might be the only person who watched HARRY POTTER 4 and walked away raving about how delish Mad-Eye Moody was.I write a lot. Some of it is good, some not so much. Here's my best movie, "Crazy Love": ..
