I LOVE CHOCOLATE!!!..
I'd like to meet:
I'd like to meet people around the Vancouver / Portland area. Finding other "artists" would be cool... don't care if your a starving actor, musician, or even a painter like myself.
I like to surround myself around positive people, people with energy, who can laugh at themselves, have fun and just be normal.
Don't put on an act, because I will see right through you. I want to meet people who are adventurous, who like to do random things. I'd like to meet people who have opinions but who aren't pushy with their ideas. I'd like to meet people who love life, and want to make the most of it! I consider myself a pro at gabbing, and have been told that I'm funny. My life motto is:
"Get busy livin', or get busy dyin', . . . damn straight." - Morgan Freeman [movie quote : The Shawshank Redemption]

Television:
A lot of crap on these days, but if you want to know my fav's......hmmmm but then you may think the shows I watch are crap too....... oh well.........don't care............I LIKE TO WATCH.............
AMERICAN IDOL
HOUSE
NUMBERS
VEGAS
DEAL OR NO DEAL
CSI (Vegas)
LOST
COOKING SHOWS
AMERICAN CHOPPER
hmmmmm I think that's it? Several shows, but don't always have time to watch them...
Books:
. . . I'd rather be "reading" people, I think I am very intuitive and perceptive when it comes to analyzing different personalities and moods.
However if on a rare occasion I do decide to pick up a book and actually read it, in bed, without falling asleep HA HA HA HA HA..... I like books about espionage, spying, government plots, old western themes ... you know cowboys and indians and the scary "gun slingers", I also like mysteries, and especially SCI-FI books with space ships, and aliens. 8)..
Heroes:
My hero would be my papa (grandfather on mother's side) . . . if it weren't for him, I would not be the artist I am today. Maybe he wasn't a great father, but a great grandfather whose wisdom and talent and motivation pushed me to be the best at all I do. I am my own worst enemy and critic when it comes to my "art" and anything I do.
. . . but I thank you Papa, I love you, and I miss you so much...
