I'm not who you think I am

About Me

I tend to be somewhat of a chameleon. I fit very easily into most situations. Though as I get older I find I get more and more resistant to blending in. I have allowed a very rare few to see the true me. And if you think you know me, you are probably mistaken.

My Interests

The great outdoors...hiking...camping...working on my house...photography

I'd like to meet:

Stephen Hawking, John Coltrane, Billie Holiday, John Lee Hooker

Music:

I love jazz and blues but will listen to most anything.

Movies:

Shawshank Redemption and The Usual Suspects rank among my favorite

Television:

Don't watch it much...In fact I do not even have cable.

Books:

One of my favorites is The Universe in a Nutshell. Otherwise Suspense, mystery, and sci-fi (especially like the Wheel of Time series (Robert Jordan))

Heroes:

My mom

Recovery Update
