About Me

WATCH OUT!!!

My father is a big nerd, but has the best sense of humor.
My mom is a kindred spirit and also my best friend. (And HOT!)
So, mom + dad = me.
I lived in many places as a child and as an adult and I plan to continue doing so as long as I am able. I love adrenaline and playing like a wild child! I think life is really about being a people person and as a close friend said to me "Live for love." Without that, what's it all about? I mean, really...don't sweat the small stuff and as they say in Costa Rica, "Pura Vida."
I like to consider myself conscious of things around me, whether globally or right in front of my face. There's a lot going on now that I'm a big kid and have a big expensive education. "Through knowledge, we suffer." But also, with knowledge we can help the suffering. Do you ever think about how our children will suffer from the way we are treating our planet, ther same way we suffer from disasters, caused by global warming we are creating? It's bound to be now, which really sucks, so I often just chalk it up to life. Life happens and lots of the time, it is out of our hands.
So I keep an open mind, and hope that others will delight in the arts, creating things into the world constantly as I do, writing, talking, and sewing, and taking photos of life. It's easy when you find happiness within, God shines upon you and blesses your path. No matter where you are or where you go.
GOD = LIGHT = LIFE = LOVE ... anything I forgot? What really matters anyway?
Here's something to think about:
If your house was being evacuated because of approaching fires, what would you grab first?
If you couldn't get anything because you were forced to leave right then, what would you be most thankful for?
Here's something nice...
this is where I live...
It's nice here, but I do miss my friends and family back in Kansas City everyday!!! Really though, What is life without FAMILY?
GOTTA MAKE THE FAMILY FIRST PRIORITY!

My Interests

Travel.

IBIZA!
HAWAII!!

Writing.

In any order, at any time.
Being active outdoors and camping out under a full moon, or a crescent moon, I just love the moon and it's feminine qualities :)

Read the book, "Where the Wild Things Are" and watch how the moon changes...it's totally his mom watching him.
And I love finding the hidden meanings in things...

I am interested in anything ART and love being involved in collaborative projects.
I love other people who have creative minds and who speak with conviction.

"SPEAK, EVEN IF YOUR VOICE SHAKES!" Just say something that you have thought about first. Who likes to feel asphyxiated anyway?
I like meeting people in my own town, Ocean Beach, because we have an abundance of musicians, artists, and happy people (and dogs). OB=Dog Beach.
And I LOVE hanging with people from around the world, aka "international chillers." Chances are, if they are travelling to the same places you are, then they have a lot to share with you; whether for a moment or a lifetime.
Ohhh yeah, I love being the instigator...it's amazing what people will do, if only YOU do it first!!!

I'd like to meet:

This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? Go get one!

I love people watching and meeting other people who want to see the world before they die! I want to meet other creative souls, and of course, I'd like to someday meet God.
And a real life panda bear, up close and in person!

Music:


Anything that sounds original.
I LOVE Bob Marley. The best Bob song to describe me is "No Woman No Cry", but I love picking through "Redemption Song" on an acoustic guitar. What's your BOB song?

Postal Service,
Modest Mouse,
