My favorite things to do are going to the movies, listening to music, watching TV, snowboarding, dancing, hittin' the gym, hangin' with the homies, chillin' at home with my daughter, bowling, driving fast, shootin' pool, playin' darts, going to concerts, rockin' out in the car, going to my daughter's swim meets, laying out by the pool, boxing, kickboxing, shopping, shootin' guns, writing, hiking, SLEEPING, playing board games, playin' a little air hockey, camping, swimming, going to the beach, wastin’ a little money at the arcade every now and again (DDR baby!), days on the lake....
I also love art, home decor, nature (nothing better than an amazing sunset or a clear, starry night), candles, thunder and lightning, dolphins, pictures, surprises (both giving and receiving them), yoga, Pilates, photography, flowers, butterflies, make-up, massages and facials, fairies, candy/chocolate (HUGE sweet tooth here), baking cookies, walking in the rain, taking long hot baths, cozying up by the fireplace (especially on a cold/rainy night), gettin' all "did" up and going out, romance, hot tubbin', riding wave runners, quads.....

What are those? Just kidding! But, yeah, don't really take the time to do much reading these days...
All the men and women who risk their lives for us every day, striving to keep us safe and free - the military, firefighters, and police. I also give it up to teachers who put up with under-funding, less-than-adequate pay, and some real snot-nosed brats in order to educate our future and reach those who are willing/able to be reached. I admire my parents so much for their family values and staying together for 37 years and many more to come! I very much think of my dad as a hero - he just retired in December 2005 from his 32 1/2 year career as a firefighter with the city of Beverly Hills.
