About Me

N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N NSo here I am....We'll begin our fantastic voyage from where I originate-Chicago...traveled around a bit, landed in LA for a few years, moved to Vegas for a few more (turns out--miserable) years, picked up and moved to NJ to open and run a clothing store with my sister...willingly sucked into NYC where I spent the rest of the best year EVER....UNTIL...Mom got sick. Of course I moved back to Chicago-suburbs to take care of her while she agonizingly died for a year :(...moved back into the city, stayed (reluctantly) for a couple more years................Lightbulb! Get the fuck back outa the ridiculously slimy hot/frigidly cold midwest!! So...back to NYC or LA? From a financial standpoint, and a 'building on an existing life' standpoint...LA is the logical choice .......................So here I am, back to LA- Aug/07.
Generally speaking....I like goingoinggoing. I wanna do it all and I wanna do it right now!
Oh- and I'm currently getting certified to be a personal trainer so I can kick your ass into shape!

I'd like to meet:

First, let me say that I am eternally grateful and appreciative of all that I have. Really, my life is a life that many would kill for. Many others might kill themselves in my place, but hey, I prefer to concentrate on the former. I think toooo much for my own good. I'm very real, honest (sometimes brutally) and true to my word. I know myself well, and work hard to keep myself centered and balanced. I thrive on learning from every life experience, good or bad, there's always something valuable to retain. All of the people that have come and gone (or are there through and through, you know who you are:)in my life have been there for one reason or another, and I'm thankful for it. Even the ones who were jags, cause it just makes me appreciate the good ones even more. I'm a loyal friend and do my best to always treat people as I would like to be treated. If you make plans with me/say you're going to call, keep them/call me....don't be a dick and don't be flaky, I'm not....there's nothing worse than flaky people!
