Jealousy does nothing but prove the low self-esteem of the person who's feeling it.

About Me

Life isn't just about what you can have; it's about what you have to give.


My Interests

I like watching TV, chillin' at Starbucks drinking coffee and smoking my cig with someone there to have a good conversation with, and hanging out with my friends drinkin' beers. I also enjoy my son.

I'd like to meet:

My biological Grandfather and those Deadliest Catch men (a little more specifically Sig Hansen, Eric Nyhammer, Corey Arnold, Phil Harris and Blake Painter...but any of them would be cool).

Music:

Lasgo, Simon and Garfunkel, James Blunt, Jet, The Cranberries, System Of A Down, Subhumans, AFI, and Three Days Grace. I like most Classical, House/Trance/Techno/etc., Celtic and Rock.

Movies:

What's Up Doc?, White Christmas, Monsters Inc., The Warriors, Four Rooms, Kill Bill/Kill Bill 2, How to Lose a Guy In 10 Days, and You've Got Mail (yes, I like those chick flicks). I don't really have time to see movies but I love watching them when I get a chance.

Television:

My favorite TV shows are Deadliest Catch, Gilmore Girls, SpongeBob SquarePants, and Will &amp Grace. Court TV is the best though! Forensic Files, Cops, Psychic Detectives, Parco P.I., Texas SWAT, Dallas SWAT, and I, Detective. Late night Channel 13 rocks!

Books:

My favorite book is Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day. I also liked the book The Giver. My favorite writer is David Sedaris.

Heroes:

I can't really think of a hero but one person I do admire in most aspects is my son's father.

Refection of my day and the sadness/joy of tomorrow

Planning a last minute party isn't all that hard. You figure out how many people, what you want, and then do it. Not rocket science expecially when it comes to picnic food and having it at a park for ...
