Am i the only one who wants to play hop scotch and bake cookies and watch the McLaughlin Group? Hell

About Me

I’d rather be barefoot. My southern accent is only noticeable when I’m on the phone with my mom. I love music but I can’t play any instruments and growing up I was only allowed to listen to southern gospel and the oldies channel. And I still like both. Yes, I’ve seen Hee Haw. I hate making decisions. I love to sleep. I’m really good at text messaging but not so good at calling – it’s not personal. I never think people understand what i'm saying because my brain always works faster than my mouth. And i really do like the Jazz. But not as much as i love ryan adams.

My Interests

stuff that makes me laugh, people that make me happy, loud music, shopping, sunshine, thunderstorms, my little Moses, sleeping in, beer with my friends

I'd like to meet:

laid back people that like to laugh and are open-minded and love animals and will quote funny movies. People that don't take themselves too seriously but do care about other people's feelings. Mark Ruffalo, Will Ferrell, Isaac Brock and the guy that plays Zack on Bones. Also, my 4th grade english teacher in a dark alley so i could tell her how wrong it was to be mean to impressionable 10 year olds.

Ryan Adams, Modest Mouse, 311, Ben Harper, Beth Hart, Ray LaMontagne, Jack Johnson, the Eels, Devendra Banhart, Cowboy Mouth, Smashing Pumpkins, Sublime, Tool, A Perfect Circle, Peter Gabriel, Camera Obscura, Bright Eyes, M.I.A., CCR, Eminem, Rusted Root, Reel Big Fish, The Killers, Johnny Cash, Elliott Smith, Weezer, Antony & the Johnsons, Ted Leo, Zero 7, Natalie Merchant, Outkast (old school ATliens Outkast mostly)... there's just not enough space to list everything i listen to!

Movies:

Anchorman, Wedding Crashers, Garden State, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic, Dodgeball, Swingers, Talladega Nights, Elf, Zoolander, Superman Returns, Fight Club, Babe (don't laugh! that movie WILL make you cry), Best in Show, Vanilla Sky, The Simpsons movie was awesome ...this list could go on for days...as long as it's not scary, i don't do scary!

Television:

Flight of the Conchords (wear an EYE patch, Bret), Entourage, Dog Whisperer, the Simpsons and Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe. oh yeah and i heart Cash Cab. if i ever go to NYC i'm only taking cabs that are vans.
