About Me

"... at every moment of our lives, we all have one foot in a fairy tale and the other in the abyss ..." --Paulo Coelho
I was born in Beaumont but grew up in Jasper, the ass-crack of Texas. After graduating, I hurried out of Hee-Haw Hell and into Austin - and wouldn't live anywhere else. I don't really have "free time" but when I do will usually spend it at the lake. I'm a pretty granola but not overly so.... not that there's anything wrong with that.
I'm a little conservative... a little liberal (it could happen). It's dependant upon the issue we're discussing... or maybe even just my mood. Being rather impatient, I prefer instant gratification over having to wait. That's not to say I'm not good at faking patience - it's my job.
I love my boyfriend, Tony, very much. He makes me smile. He also makes me yell. He's perfect. I'm a better person because I'm with him.
I love my dog, Sebastian, very much. He makes me smile. He also makes me yell. He's perfect, too.
They're my happy place.

- Charles Kingsley

For someone must stand up for what's right
'Cause where there's a man who has no voice
There, ours shall go singing.

... in the end, only kindness matters.
