About Me

Myspace Backgrounds
Mmm about me… I’m pretty laid back and enjoy all sorts of music – I think I’m stuck in a time warp at times with the musical tastes I have, although there are several “newer” bands I like as well. I don’t have any particular style other than the “Melissa” style. I’m just me…. I laugh a lot and am usually smiling, but then I have a slightly odd sense of humor and a lot of things amuse me. I LOVE being outside and doing stuff when the weather is nice; fishing, walking, hiking, playing with the Newfies, just listening to the sound of the water - BLISS. I enjoy photography, especially the pictures no one is expecting, not necessarily of people, but of nature as well. One of my passions is cooking and creating gourmet or regular Joe meals. That’s my time to be creative and experiment with foods and flavors. Paired with some great music and great wine, the experience is very relaxing. More often than not, when I'm inside, you'll find me either in the kitchen with some music playing or being silly with the birds ;)

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

All my buddies from Doug's and David's boards and cool people who like great music, good beer, great wine, awesome food and big dogs. People who can carry on a conversation. How about you? :)

My Blog

Nothing in particular
