I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I was just kidding about being married to Adam. Now we're officially engaged and will be married within a year. We have a beautiful love and share it with our two cats and two dogs. In the not too distant future I will be moving to Florida to live our happy life together in his house. It seems as if I've been in the right place at the right time for the past few months, as everything's coming up roses. I have a profound respect for the universe and all it provides for me, and I am deeply grateful for the way my life has turned out.

My Interests

Music-listening and playing bassoon and sax, watching TV (no really, I love TV!), reading on occasion, cooking and eating food, traveling. Circus. Pets in general but especially dogs. Self-actualization. Introspection and spirituality. Human sexuality. Hockey. I freakin love watching hockey. I love the Sharks.

adopt your own virtual pet!

I'd like to meet:

Albert Einstein, Stevie Wonder, Dave Chapelle, Pablo Picasso, Ray Charles--true geniuses. Anybody who believes in themselves and their talent. Jonathan Cheechoo and Katee Sackhoff

Music:

Just about every genre generally--especially Elbow, Hawksley Workman, Carmen McRae, Vaughn Williams, The Band, Joni Mitchell, Sun Ra, Kurt Elling, The Beatles, AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Neil Young, Jack Johnson
Your Stripper Song Is
Pour Some Sugar on Me by Def Leppard

"Love is like a bomb, baby, c'mon get it on
Livin' like a lover with a radar phone
Lookin' like a tramp, like a video vamp
Demolition woman, can I be your man?"

Break out the baby oil, you rock it old school. What Song Should You Strip To?The Differences
Sometimes in the amazing ignorance
I hear things and see things
I never knew I saw and heard before
Sometimes in the ignorance
I feel the meaning
Invincible invisible wisdom,
And I commune with intuitive instinct
With the force that made life be
And since it made life be
It is greater than life
And since it let extinction be
It is greater than extinction.
I commune with feelings more than prayer
For there is nothing else to ask for
That companionship is
And it is superior to any other is.
Sometimes in my amazing ignorance
Others see me only as they care to see
I am to them as they think
According the standard I should not be
And that is the difference between I and them
Because I see them as they are to is
And not the seeming isness of the was.
Sun Ra

You Are the Swedish Chef

American Thanksgiving

As you must know, my boyfriend is American.  My last post was what he sent me for Canadian Thanksgiving.  This post is what he sent me for the American Holiday.  He should have his own ...

America's Got Talent...

I was looking for a Law and Order rerun tonight when I happened upon the premiere of another new Idol-like reality show.  It kept me amused for a while...but the thing that struck me most ab...

Listening to Jimi is good for the soul

I always feel full of love and joy after listening to Hendrix.  I can only imagine the musical, spiritual and ethical boundaries he could have pushed if he just lived a little longer.  I fee...

another shitty poem...practice makes perfect!

I stand as an outsider now. Through the smoke-stained glass, I look in on the life I once had. The family gathered happily in communion Of different faiths, different realities, aligned.   My rea...

The Big Chill

I've been sitting here all afternoon conjuring up images of an old friend.  I found out today that he died recently in an accident.  I have to say that I'm a little envious of the way he was...

I hate my life.

The men in my life are so shitty at communicating.  All I do is try to maintain a balance between following my heart and acting on their cues, and I just keep getting screwed in the end.  Ho...

Ian Garden is the Anti-Christ

On this not-so-momentus day 6/6/06, Ian Garden expelled me from my circus family.  He is such a judgemental, misogynistic, small-penis-syndrome-having bastard.  He still hasn't told me why, ...

I hate that effing cat

That lazy, stupid personality-lacking cat just woke me out of the hard-to-come-by sleep I had just achieved by scratching my foot to shit.  Apparently she was sleeping at my feet when the other c...
