About Me

I have fights with myself on the inside.
The tumultuous route of my life has given me vast appreciation for the road I now explore.
Pet Peeves:
*Tape and stickers on things where they no longer serve a purpose
*People that think just because they are at work they can spill coffee all over the counter and leave it there because "someone" will clean it up. That someone is me and I am not paid to clean up after people.
*Hangers in the closet that are put in backward.
*Clothes in the closet that are not all facing the same direction and grouped by style and in color order.
*Shoes that make noise when the person wearing them walks.
Little Things That Please Me:
*When the sky is picturesque no matter the weather.
*A good cup of coffee and a cigarette on a weekend morning.
*Hearing the song that completely fits the mood I am in.
*Cooking or baking something that I enjoy eating more than I enjoy cooking.
*Happy doggies and puppies.
*When I can put onto paper the image that is in my mind.

[noun]:
A level headed person who always makes the wrong decision

My Interests

Things I like to do granted I have the equipment, money, time, and/or company in which to do them...
Baking, cooking, painting, planning elaborate parties, attending shows of all sorts, dancing, drinking, working on the house, making jewelry, Mt. biking, other outdoor sports...
There are many other things I do but unfortunately I seem to not do anything as frequently as I would like.

I'd like to meet:

A talking dog and a talking monkey that sword fights. If I had a pair of talking dogs and monkeys I would train the monkeys to ride the dogs and joust.

Some rich person that wants to give me large sums of money just for being me.

People that will allow me to plan elaborate parties with their money.
