About Me



"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"

"This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness." Dalai Lama

My Interests

Family, Real Friends, Travel, Laughing, Live Music, Different Cultures, Tattoos, Wine, Sunset, Thunderstorms, and being left alone when I feel like being alone.

I'd like to meet:


Music:

I think my player will give you a good idea...I'm too lazy to list everything here.

Movies:

Anything on DVD because I hate crowded theaters & not being able to pause.

Television:

Medical & Home Improvement, First 48 and my guilty pleasure...Cheaters.

Books:

I have a good murder mystery collection but reading makes me sleepy.

Heroes:

My mother BaBaWaWa. She is the most amazing woman I know and I am lucky to have her as my mom and best friend.

The Awakening

A time comes in your life when you finally get it. When, in the midst of all of the fears and insanity, you stop dead in your tracks and somewhere the voice inside your head cries out - ENOUGH! E...
