About Me

I'm extremely outgoing! I love to laugh and make people laugh. I enjoy raunchy humor and slapstick. I'm a sweet girl, but don't mistake my kindness for fear or weakness. I'm a smart cookie, but I downplay it like Columbo. I can see the good in people, even if they are hiding behind a quiet, tough or angry exterior. I understand that every human being just wants to be unconditionally loved and appreciated for who they are - not what they look like, do for a living, how they "play the game," blah, blah, blah. I'm patient with people, and I'm a forgiver. I know why people do the things they do. I care about humanity, and I'm extremely compassionate. I don't believe in regret, accidents nor coincidences. I think everything happens for a reason.I really enjoy intelligent, deep, spiritual and philosophical conversation. I love clever music and movies. I love it when somebody can analyze them and keep up with me.I'm very creative. I have to express myself - whether it be talking, writing, drawing, painting, making crafts, taking photos, decorating, cooking, making cds and movies on my computer, singing or dancing. I LOVE to sing and dance! I'm usually the one at parties that everyone enlists to get it started. I'm not shy, and I'm not a wallflower.I LOVE to jam with musicians! I would rather do that than just about anything...especially if we are camping! I am currently learning to play the drums and guitar, and I've just started to write songs as well. I really, really love to wail on the mic (wail being the operative word)...especially hair band songs from the '80's.Basically, I am a very energetic, passionate and nice person.

My Interests

My family is the most important thing in my life. Here is a picture of my sibs and me when we were kids (from the bottom: Paige, Paula, Parker, Penny, Patty and Pam). I look the most Irish of all of us!Here's what my fam looks like now:My Mom and Dad back in the day:Christian Bale's body in American Psycho! Oh yeah, mommy likey! Hahaaa!!!God, music, movies, pop culture, art, fitness, Studio Pilates, self-improvement, health, beauty, decorating, outdoor adventures, psychology, philosophy, philanthropy, spirituality and astrology. I love to play volleyball, one-on-one soccer, hacky sac, foosball and ping pong. I love doing gymnastics, dance and cheerleading.

I'd like to meet:

A man who loves God (most important), 6'+, brunette, athletic, plays sports and will workout with me, college educated, articulate and witty, deep and philosophical, communicative (I mean with me, so we can work out our differences when they arise), loves music and movies, kind and compassionate, plays the guitar, good hygiene (no dirty boys...OCD a plus!), masculine (no metrosexuals for me), family oriented, loves to camp and canoe, loves me for me and will be a man and pursue me! I'm aggressive, but that doesn't mean I don't want to be swept off my feet! I'm a very nice girl...have some courage! I have a lot of guy friends, but I am the most loyal girl you will ever meet in your life. I'm sooo over the bar scene, so I want someone who likes to make a home, travel or do something more stimulating and adventurous than just drink and hang around.

Music:

I admire musicans very much! I'm mesmerized by them! I love '80's music: hair bands, new age, even some of the cheesy pop! I love old-school rap. I'm sentimental, and I love nostalgia!
