About Me

I'm just a chick out there living life as it's handed to me... I love to laugh and have a good time. Good times for me could be catching a ball game, a good live show, bowling, goofing off, or walking down the street singing the Oscar Meyer Weiner song (and yes I have done that). It's all good times if it makes you or others smile. Music is a huge part of who I am. I also like to write poetry. I love my Cubbies and my UofL Cardinals!! I try not to let life knock me down and stay chipper but if you do see me on the ground chances are the ground tripped me or the air pushed me. I'm not saying I'm clumsy; I'm saying that walls, sidewalks, stairs, floors and so on can be very big bullies so please be careful... It's crazy out there! br

My Interests

MUSIC! I like to write poetry. You can't beat a road trip. Flying just isn't the same. There is just so much more freedom to driving down an open road with music and seeing all around you. I'm open to trying new things as long as it isn't bungee jumping or jumping out of an air plane. Sorry, I'm a wuss but I'll watch.

I'd like to meet:

People who are who they are. You can never have too many friends and there are no "clicks" with me. If you're cool we're cool. Awww isn't that sweet.

Music:

I love music and don't know that I could single anyone out. I could start listing but I fear I will leave someone out. I will give it a shot in no order and will add as I remember more: Jim Croce, Muddy Waters, Tom Waits, The Beatles, Citizen Cope, Pink Floyd, Bob Marley, the Doors, Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, Coldplay, Bright Eyes, Mofro, Cold War Kids, Otis Redding, Bill Withers, Ray Charles, Miles Davis, Guns N' Roses, Janis Joplin, Nick Drake, Ray Lamontagne, Papa Mali, John Lee Hooker, Robert Johnson, Louis Armstrong, Led Zeppelin, Amos Lee, Keane, Frank Sinatra, Damien Rice, the Killers, Jack Johnson, Arcade Fire, Stevie Wonder, Willie Nelson, Mason Jennings ... I know there is many many more so the list will go on soon enough.

Movies:

zombie movies, funny movies, scary movies, vampire movies, or to sum it all up good movies.

Television:

Waste of time unless UofL Cards are playing or my Cubbies.

Books:

I read them
