About Me

I like to have fun which includes going to live shows of all kinds; I like to play pool; and I feel that I'm getting a little better. :0) Things I absolutely LOVE are music, skiing, hiking, swimming, laying outside in the middle of nowhere stargazing (alone or with friends), animals, I also love shopping for really groovy (I had to throw that word in because it's one of my favourites) new clothes and cd's, and eating really excellent food (the spicier the better.) I feel, and have been told that I'm fairly open minded about many things, but I can also be pretty stubborn at times.... I like to get to know a lot of different people from all walks of life.... I guess that's me in a very small nutshell. If you would like to know more, just drop a line. I'm more than happy to meet new people!

My Interests

outdoorsy stuff such as going on a hike in the middle of a blizzard and building a bonfire by a lake (one of the most memorable and awesome experiences I've had in a while, even if I did almost lose a couple of toes.*l* thanks J!)and fishing (even when I only catch a sunny or two); MUSIC; art of all kinds (I know music is art, but that's my fave so that's why it goes in a class of it's own); animals; cuddling up with someone (including friends, family and animals) and watching a movie or listening to tunes; SKIING; doing and attending gigs;
