I am here for Friends

About Me

I grew up in Michigan but left there after school. Raised my family in Alaska, where they remain. I, however, am now a permanent resident of the Great Southern Land, Australia, and plan to become a citizen here in the next year. I've had a lot of interesting experiences in my life, some wonderful, some terrible, others just curious :) Too much to tell here!
Made with the MyTheme myspace editor

My Interests

Fishing, bird watching, country dancing, arts & crafts, darts, and so much more. I am also a longtime avid player of the online game "Utopia"

I'd like to meet:

In myspace, I'd like to meet fun, easy going, friendly people.In person, I'd like to meet Sean Connery and Capt Sarah Perry

Music:

I love a variety of music types ... but can't really get into rap, hip hop or loud "dance mix" music that has no real melody or words you can understand!

Movies:

Good horror / thriller movies, sci fi, fantasy, romantic comedy, quality dramas and action movies. Movies I can always watch again ... Sound of Music, Blues Brothers, Priscilla Queen of the Desert, Rocky Horror, Shrek, Dances with Wolves

Television:

I really enjoy all those law shows, all the Law & Order series, especially SVU; CSI (Vegas and NY, don't like the Miami one), Judging Amy, etc. I even like Monk *blushing* ... I hate to confess to it, but I'm a sucker for the Idol shows. I am also hooked on Medium.

Books:

Favorites, the whole Clan of the Cavebear series and Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. Most recently finished, Don't Tell Them Goodbye (by Alison DuBois). I'm usually in the middle of 2 or 3 books, many that I never find time to finish, sadly.
