I'm not crazy, I'm an airplane

About Me

I wanna enjoy life to the fullest, in all ways, and I do mean ALL. Hehehe :). Some years ago I decided not to be easily ashamed of myself or the things I do anymore; makes life so much easier, being the bad boy that I am. One of my favorite quotes is "Make love and be merry, for tomorrow you may catch some disgusting skin disease" . That should tell you a little something about me. LOL.
Originally Dutch, which - to a large extent - I suspect I alway will stay, now living in the US. Found the love of my life some 4500 miles away from home, right here in Lima. We got married August 23rd 2004, and although it wasn't the big to-do we might have liked, it was still awesome. If all goes well, some day we'll do it all over again, and then the whole shebang.

I'm usually a pretty straightforward guy, down to earth and such. Can be a worrywart, but I try not to let stuff get to me too much. That's the lesson I'm trying to teach others, anyway. LMAO. When things aren't going my way, I've been known to whine like a baby. Hihi. I'm mostly a (very) naughty boy, and although I don't exactly act my age most of the time, I'm pretty serious and will be grown up about things if need be. Not that I really wanna grow up; the day I feel I'm fully grown up, I wanna die. There simply always has to be room to play the fool, horse around, or whatever other cliche you can come up with. After all, life's all about fun, it's only a lifetime! Anything else you wanna know, you'll have to ask; if I'm willing to tell that is .. hihi

My Interests

Pfff, way too many to mention on here, but here's a few: my wife Ang, movies, music, (world) news, photography -- also naughty :), reading (especially fantasy), swimming, walking, watch (some) sports, generally be lazy, and last - but most definitely not least - sex

I'd like to meet:

Nah, anyone I can talk to and who's wacky enough to be able to stand me, my moods and my sense of humor I suppose; not picky really. Can be a bit shy and tentative at first, but once I'm comfy, I'll talk about anything! .. :D .. Don't be afraid, just ask and I'll answer. And if I don't wanna, you can bet your sweet ass I'll tell you. Last time that happened must be several years ago though. LOL.

Music:

Pretty much anything, from classical to jazz & country to rock, except for house, techno and affiliate crap; that's not music, that's noise. Some of my favorites are: Pink Floyd, Dire Straits, Phil Collins, Genesis, Clannad, Ilse de Lange, Diamond Rio, etc

Movies:

I'll watch anything that appeals to me and actually is some good, from romantic comedy to horror; depends on the mood I'm in. Some favorites: Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Alien(s), Matrix, Notting Hill, You've Got Mail

Television:

Hardly ever watched TV while I was still in NL, but over here we don't watch at all. We have no antenna, cable or dish. Can't say that I miss it either, though I'm not saying that it'll stay that way. Anyhoot, when I did, I kept up with the news of the world, and I (still) like ER, Will & Grace, Discovery Channel, National Geographic. I loove watching old episodes of Hill Street Blues. The other day Ang bought the first season of Scrubs on DVD. Hilariously funny at times. My life will be complete once we have all seasons of Friends. LMAO

Books:

My favorite genre by far is fantasy (T.A. Barron, Jacqueline Carey, Stephen R. Donaldson, Sara Douglass, J.V. Jones, Robert Jordan, J.R.R. Tolkien), but I enjoy a nice (non) fiction novel too

Heroes:

Superman isn't brave. You can't be brave if you are indestructible. It's every day people like me and you that are brave, knowing we can easily be defeated but still continue forward. That's TRUE bravery!

Rental Rates

Ang looked into rental rates, and it is - as we expected - a whole lot cheaper than having the moving company arrange transport from Chicago to Lima. U-Haul is quite expensive, about the same rate 1-w...
