About Me


"I beg you to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Do not search for the answers, which could not be given you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything! Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer." -Rilke

My Interests

Anything involved with having FUN! Even though FUN is what you bring with you! :D Being more specific: spending quality time with the fam, walking around SF with Dennis, spoiling my neices/nephews/godchildren rotten, daily crosswords, reading a good book, perezhilton.com (Everyone has their vice, right?), watching documentaries/anything educational, a good glass of red wine, cooking, people watching, the occassional Urban Fam. 5 min. party :) Oh, FOOTBALL FOOTBALL FOOTBALL!! I'l watch it all, mostly because I need to see which of the teams I picked won!

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who wants to talk football, hates Alex Smith as much as I do, and doesn't hate the Patriots. Those who know the difference between "there" vs. "they're" vs. "their", "who" vs. "whom","it's" vs. "its", and "you're" vs. "your", can use apostrophes and commas correctly, and can spell. People who inspire me to become a better person in all aspects - mentally, physically, and spiritually. Lovers of crosswords and playing jeopardy. Cool, calm, laid back, go-with-the-flow folks with substance and personality. :)View All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment
