I am here for Friends

About Me

I am about to turn 32 (not very happy bout it) but I have done quite a bit in my 31+ years. Somethings I regret but for the most part I have had a wonderfully crazy and an adventurous life. I have traveled throughout the us (several times) and throughout other countries as well. I have lived throughout the us(born in the west, lived in the east and south), but have settled down in the pacific northwest, where I have slowed my life style down a great deal. I think my past as jaded me a little, I get bored quite easily, I'm not use to staying in one place for very long. On the other hand I do enjoy the stability and tend to blend in with societal norms, or at least more than I use to!. I'm a dreamer, I want to do everything, professionally. After 10 years and enough credits to have my degree a couple of times over, I'm still going to school but still slinging drinks. That's what you get for changing your major from religious studies to evolutionary biology. I guess what I am trying to say, is even though I am sticking around in one area, I'm still lost and view life as an ever changing adventure. style type="text/css" XYZ Layouts

My Interests



.......MY NIECE, CAILYN ELIZABETH!! She is the light of my life............. My interests are of course BUGS, ants and social insects in particular. I study evolutionary bio and bugs got evolution down! My cats, they are my life, my children the only two I will ever have! Music, music of all types, but unfortunately I don't play anything and god knows I cant sing, just admire those who can. I like to travel and live/move to new cities, but I've been rather stationary lately. Really, I spend most of my time hanging out with friends & playin poker (I'm gettin darn good!). God, now that I read this I really sound quite boring.
