Swansboro - a small slice of simple

About Me


It’s 2008 and here’s what you should know about me:
I love my partner Regina and am looking forward to our one year Commitment Ceremony anniversary (we were together for five before the Ceremony). Sir is my snuggle bunny. Jasmyne has no tail. McIver likes to knock things down. Gretta is full of energy. When I die I want to be reincarnated into a turtle. My best friend is finally home from Bulgaria. I got a baby therapy buddy for Christmas, his name is Yammie. Dark chocolate rules. I really love bluegrass. Regina’s love for llamas is semi-contagious. I absolutely love Target. Wal-Mart is hell and you should never go there. Coke is king. Bubble gum is fun. Congregational United Church of Christ is the coolest church ever, you should come visit. I’m addicted to Food Network, Discovery Channel, A&E, and Style. I still watch cartoons. I know the entire Fresh Prince of Bel Air theme song. I want to loose weight. Sometimes I only want to eat cold things. I need to find a job, anyone hiring? I’m constantly finding things in this house to give to Goodwill. I like to organize small spaces like the closets and cabinets. We now have a new self-cleaning litter box and life is much easier. I can’t cook. Sweet tea runs though my veins. My friends are my family. I think Regina is amazing at what she does. I miss my granddaddy more than anything. I believe nature talks to us. I want to be accepted as Kloe and Willow’s ‘Auntie Amber.’ My clothes have to be folded a certain way. So, that’s about it (or at least what I can think of right now). Peace!

My Interests


Floral design. Liberation Theology. World peace. Turtles. Finding my “you’re gay, it’s ok” family. Shoes. Phase 10. Quiet time. Black and White photography. Gerbera Daisies. People watching.

I'd like to meet:


I look forward to meeting you all. There is so much about myself that I have yet to discover and find that each new friendship, and even each new hardship gives me a glimpse into my soul. Thank you for being open, accepting, and loving. Now if we could just get the world to see those values for what they are we would all be better for it.

So, Regina is the cook around here.  She laughs and says that come 2008 she's passing the torch to me.  Well...she's gone until late Monday - It's 11:27PM and I think to myself "boy, am I ...
