Live the life you always imagined. Seek comfort through the many faces of adversity.

About Me

Making moves and moving forward knowing at the end of the day nothing is ever that serious. Understanding that life is bound to surprise you with both the good and the bad but change is always good and for the better."Honey, come sit down I've got something tough to tell you. Uh, I'm fabulous, okay? I'm an incredible dresser, I've got buckets of money, I'm a hoot and a half, and I've got a killer rack. Do you get what I'm saying...? Honey you're not me and you never will be." -K. Walker

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Loyal and light-hearted folks that don't take themselves too seriously. Creative indivudals who are focused, goal-oriented and determined are always a definite plus!View All Friends | View Blog | View Pics | Add Comment

Music:

I have eclectic taste when it comes to music. I listen to just about anything. It all depends on my mood!

Movies:

Same with music, I love all types of film. Foreign flicks are my weakness. Anything indie, please!

Television:

Anything with smart writing. But currently my Season Pass on TiVo is:1) Law & Order: Criminal Intent2) Sarah Silverman Show3) Saturday Night Live4) Larry King Live5) Will & Grace6) Heroes7) Weeds8) Brothers & Sisters9) RENO 91110)The Colbert Report

Books:

Current: Power and Influence: The Rules Have Changed - by Robert L. Dilenschneider

Heroes:

1) G-d - For the many blessings and lessons that I learn through life. At times, it might not be easy but for some reason I keep it moving.2) My Loving Parents/My Amazing Brothers - Without them and their support I don't know where I would be.3) My Understanding Friends/Extended Family - My mom used to tell me that it was up to you to choose and make a family of your own. So far so good - minus a couple of 'trial runs' - I'm happy with the outcome thus far.4) The Fakes/The Two-Faced/The Backstabbers - Thanks goes out to them for letting me get to know and study what deceit and vidiction looks like up-close. In life, one must hustle to stay afloat, but never should it be at the expense of someone else's livelihood.5) Anyone who has it figured out and know what life is, somewhat, all about - Someday, soon, I hope to be in this social class. All in its own!
