About Me

I'm fun, adventurous, vivacious, passionate (intense), and for the most part balanced. I've always thought I was Thai/Irish=Thairish... but recently found out my grandmother is from Bhutan, which makes me 1/2 Irish, 1/4 Thai, & 1/4 Bhutanese... I'm a Heinz 57 mut fused with some Asian spice... the best part is... I'm a martini lovin' country girl. Life is too short. I could get hit by a bus tomorrow. I'm an "in the closet" optimist wrapped in a "realist" package. I love Jazz, dirty martinis, great conversation, sarcastic humor, and creative minds. I also love boas, the color black, red lipstick, and a great kiss. You?.. MyGen Profile Generator

My nanna. She's the most amazing woman I know. Buried a husband, raised 4 children alone. A writer, poet, spiritual counselor, and my only mother figure. After losing her eyesight, and currently battling cancer, she still maintains such grace and dignity. No one I know will ever compare to her.
