About Me

I am 29 years old (dreading 30)...Married for 7 years...no human children, but I have 4 non-human ones who I love more than life itself. I am a writer, a wife, a mother, a best friend, a sister, a lover, a person living with disease, and considered a daughter to more people than you could imagine...and I am blessed for being all of those things. I have a kick-ass, incredable husband that I have fallen in love with again and again...and a terrific family that, God bless them, still love me despite all my faults.My life is complex, demanding, yet beautifully facinating. And some would say that I am a walking contradiction...well, so be it then....reread the quote at the top of the page. I have been blessed with meeting some undeniably awesome people, and I value that my soul has been marked forever by these individuals. I base all things on my experiences, and I have had many. I would not trade for any of them...especially the bad ones. I wouldn't wish some of my experiences on my worst enemy, but I wouldn't take anything for the knowledge that I have gained from them. I can say that for the short amount of time that I have been on this earth....I have lived. What a damn ride it has been!!! And that ride is marked by those people who walk in and out of my life daily, weekly, maybe yearly...I believe that there isn't one person who is in my life by accident...and I love that.I am quick to laugh and act stupid for the sake of hearing someone else's laughter, I have a sick sense of humor, and I can be easy going when the mood strikes me...I love a good debate and a good cup of coffee, I tend to be open minded but still opinionated, and I am not a morning person in the least...therefore, perky morning people make me want to slap them. And I have more pet-peeves than anyone I know. I have heard more than once..."You are so scorpio"....so consider yourself warned. But, when I love you, you get me for life...all five foot of me...sarcasim, craziness, sick sense of humor, disease and all. I am moody at times, and I am not sorry for that either, as it tends to keep people on their toes and frankly, I've earned it. This is the tip of the iceberg of who I am, but I believe that getting to know the honest and raw parts of another person is a process that is earned. ~M

My Interests



Free Myspace Pictures from drewpydraws

I'd like to meet:

Open minded people who can actually have a good debate without getting pissy...people who are spiritual and those who live by their own rules without being sorry for it....And most certainly, John Lennon if he were alive.

Music:

I like very diverse music...I listen to music that causes emotion and inspires me. If I can relate to it, I like it.

Movies:

I tend to be all over the place with movies...I love a good horror movie...and by good, I mean that I don't have the ending figured out in the first 10 minutes. I'll admit that I cried during Titanic and that Gone with the Wind caused me to have a southern twang for a few hours....Legends of the Fall and Cold Mountain made me wish for simpler times. And I love comedy. Really the only movies that I'm not a big fan of are action. Just doesn't do anything for me.

Television:

Right now I am watching House and The Riches. I still love cartoons (the old ones) and I watch adult swim on Cartoon Network. Most of the shows that I watch are on the History Channel, Discovery Channel, Sundance and IFC. You're never too old to learn something new.

Books:

I have so many books on my "to read list"....and what do I do???? I buy more books. I loved The Vampire Chronicles, by Anne Rice. White Oleander was entertaining. Herland and The Yellow Wallpaper, by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, were really good stories. And I like Poe and Anne Sexton a lot.

Heroes:

my friend ~V, people who struggle with (fill in the blank), but do it with grace and dignity, my husband (he rocks), my sister Raven (who is amazing), my family (who are awesome and give me a soft place to land) and my non-human kids...for animals are capable of what humans can not attain..."unconditional love"
