One man's wrong lead is another man's counter-canter

About Me

I was gonna write a new little "about me" section but I am coming to the realization that no sleep, Willy Wonka on t.v., and a talking roommate results in my brain having sensory overload......so all you're going to get from me is random babbling. Twix bars, gummy bears, and kit kats are so yummy. Pathmark the grocery store sucks.....I mean come on, anywhere where you have to pay a quarter for a shopping cart has to be sucky. Horses are cool, my doggie is cooler though. I love artichokes and I love it even more when people pronounce it "ar-tea-choke". Little things in life make me happy....like "ar-tea-choke", the way New Yorkers say "huge", baseball, and literally little things....you know like mini toothpaste, condiments, forks, food, I think you get the picture. Hehe I am smiling just thinking about it. I like to be happy and to laugh at absolutely nothing, oh and I fall a lot. I'm a total klutz but it seems to entertain those around me. Ok, I've rambled enough time for food and bed! Yay!

My Interests

Horses, SF Giants, Softball, Tennis, Camping, traveling, Four Wheeling, hiking, torturing puppies....I just threw that one in to see if you were still paying attention!

I'd like to meet:
