Phantom Kisses

I am here for Serious Relationships, Friends and Networking

About Me

I am loving, loyal, passionate, complex, free-thinking, philosophical, a seeker of knowledge and honesty, and an animal lover. I have a weird, sarcastic, sometimes wicked sense of humor. I tend to think with my heart and not my head. I love meeting people that I just "click" with. I can be goofy and giggly, or quiet and thoughtful. I remember who I was and embrace who I have become. I am learning to look at myself critically, but not be overly critical. I want to be good to myself and not my own worst enemy. I once had dreams of becoming an actress; I now settle for being dramatic. I long to rage in the moment and ferociously kiss the mystery of life. I love to write. I am passionate about art, music, poetry, the language of the soul. When I was about 8 years old, I had a huge crush on Barry Gibb of the Bee Gees. I think I still do, kind of. I am a fantastic speller, a fan of useless but interesting trivia, and I have an amazing ability to remember things.

Travel! I have seen a lot of places in the world; England, Scotland, Wales, France, Spain, Panama, Turkey...I just recently returned from an adventure in Egypt down the Nile. Cairo, Luxor, Edfu, Komombo, Aswan, and Alexandria...my adventurous spirit has been reawakened, and I cannot wait to plan my next trip somewhere exciting, maybe India or Italy. Other interests include: Crossword puzzles, Scrabble, feeling the soil in my fingers while gardening (herbs and fresh-picked summer tomatoes...the best), cooking, yoga, knitting, writing poetry, reading (I have a serious weakness for buying books), painting, drawing, art museums, movies, laughing about weird random things with my weird random family members, remembering my dreams when I wake up in the morning, sitting in a warm house with a cup of herbal tea and watching the snow fall, black and white photographs, windchimes tinkling a mournful tune, new shoes, old houses, the feeling of deja vu, creepy vintage toys, the smell in the air after a summer thunderstorm, scooping spiders up and taking them outside instead of squishing them, ghost stories, back scratches, taking naps on rainy afternoons, sitting by the campfire, singing in the car, warm laundry, looking at the mountains under the glow of a full moon, smelling freshly mown summertime grass, the sound of crickets, stargazing, bubble baths, autumn leaves crunching beneath my feet, New York City, Trivial Pursuit, Farmer's Market, Shakespearean Festival, the ocean (Cannon Beach, Oregon), red bell peppers, sushi, cheese, good coffee, good wine, and good conversation.

My dislikes include: Porcelain faced antique dolls with itty bitty teeth (they bite you when you fall asleep at night), ventriloquist dummies, the sound of a dentist's drill, Lady Elaine Fairchild from Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood of Make Believe (she gave me nightmares), and Mr. Peanut. My god, never trust a peanut wearing a monocle and a top hat.

I'd like to meet:

A butcher, a baker, a candlestick maker, poets, artists, dreamers...I am really open to meeting all kinds of people. Drop me a line sometime. I would like to meet other like-minded kindrid spirits to share this wild ride called life. Oh, and Barry Gibb.

Television:

MythBusters, "cold case" type forensics shows (I know, a tad morbid, but fascinating to me), almost anything on A & E, History channel, TLC, and Discovery Channel. I enjoyed Arrested Development and Six Feet Under. I also loved Freaks and Geeks, X-Files and NewsRadio.

Books:

..I am having a life-long love affair with books. I own too many, I buy too many, and I often re-read books many times. I find that I learn something new every time I read a book...usually something new about myself. I love books that make me think. I love books that make me laugh. I love books that inspire me, disgust me, arouse me, and anger me. I use books to escape sometimes, and sometimes to become more aware of my reality. I can completely lose track of time in a bookstore, and I usually find at least two or three new books to buy. My dream has always been to become a writer. I need to heed the words of George Eliot..."It is never too late to become what you might have been."

Heroes:

"I need a hero, I'm holding on for a hero 'til the end of the night. He's gotta be strong, and he's gotta be fast, and he's gotta be fresh from the fight. I need a hero, I'm holding on for a hero 'til the morning light. He's gotta be sure, and he's gotta be soon, and he's gotta be larger than life." Heroes are human. Heroes sometimes fail. Be your own hero.
