An Irish Toast
Here is to a long life, and a merry one. A quick death and an easy one.
A pretty girl,and a honest one. A cold pint... and another one.
WE are the music-makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea-breakers,
And sitting by desolate streams;
World-losers and world-forsakers,
On whom the pale moon gleams:
Yet we are the movers and shakers
Of the world forever, it seems.
With -wonderful deathless ditties We build up the world's great cities,
And out of a fabulous story
We fashion an empire's glory:
One man with a dream, at pleasure,
Shall go forth and conquer a crown;
And three with a new song's measure
Can trample an empire down.
We, in the ages lying
In the buried past of the earth,
Built Nineveh with our sighing,
And Babel itself with our mirth;
And o'erthrew them with prophesying
To the old of the new -world's worth;
For each age is a dream that is dying,
Or one that is coming to birth.

My main interest is art, I could get lost in an interesting piece of work for hours at a time. I tend to be drawn to the things that most "enthusiasts" do not consider art, but ARE still art just the same. I am a firm believer that you fill a child's mind with art and they will grow up to be brilliant (but then I am biased), I don't believe that you should have to color inside the lines for it to be perfect and I think that is a rule for everyday life as well. The world would be a much better place if more people did color outside the lines. I love and collect all things
Care Bear
AND ALL THINGS
Butterfly,
as if you could not tell by my page. The Care Bears are just something from my childhood that I just love and the Butterflies are something that has deep value and are held deeply to my heart, that is pretty much it. :)
I love gaming of all types, I love Madden and and can kick any boys ass at it (Except BJ and his powers on that game are beyond comprehension.)!
I love being outside in any shape fashion or form,
I go camping, hiking, and fishing (and yes I can bait my own hook). I love to just be out side and walk slow, I firmly believe that it is the journey not the destination. I think that alot of things should be that way in this world.
I play neopets from time to time as well.

I love going downtown for a beer, to listen to music and to dance, and maybe just maybe a late night romp in the fountains. :)
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the lord my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake
I pray the lord my soul to take
Save me from the things of hell
That seek inside my mind to dwell
Strengthen my hold on reality
In the face of adversity
And if it ever comes to pass
That madness pulls me down at last
I pray there is a place for me
Away from all this misery.
Amen

I would love to meet anyone with a respect for another human being. Anyone who is their own person, and knows what they want from life.
Would love to meet a Viking who looks the part as well as knows their heritage. Those men are soooo HOT!
Oh and I would like to meet some people that like to travel and go to the Ren Fairs! So here is to those people who understand, and if you have never heard this song sung in a pub with one or two hundred of your closest friends you could never understand, it is truly amazing!
Here's a Health to the Company
Kind friends and companions, come join me in rhyme
Come lift up your voices in chorus with mine
Let us drink and be merry, all grief to refrain
For we may and might never all meet here again
Chorus:
Here's a health to the company and one to my lass
Let us drink and be merry all out of one glass
Let us drink and be merry, all grief to refrain
For we may and might never all meet here again
Here's a health to the dear lass that I love so well
Her style and her beauty, sure none can excel
There's a smile upon her countenance as she sits on my knee
Sure there's no one in in this wide world as happy as we
Our ship lies at harbor, she's ready to dock
I hope she's safe landed without any shock
If ever we should meet again by land or by sea
I will always remember your kindness to me
My life is defined by the music that I listen to and it keeps my hold on sanity very tight. Music is a big part of my life and my tastes are very broad indeed. From Celtic tunes, to pop, metal, and punk. The only thing I refuse to listen to is rap... and well that is obvious. I listen to country in very very small doses, LOL- it's not all bad just most of it. :)My main groups are Nickelback, Three Days Grace KORN, Sarah Mclachlan, Disturbed, TOOL, gee the list goes on and on. You should listen to my iPOD sometime :).

When all our tears have reached the sea
Part of you will live in me
Way down deep inside my heart
The days keep coming without fail
A new wind is gonna find your sail
Thats where your journey starts
Youll find better love
Strong as it ever was
Deep as the river runs
Warm as the morning sun
Please remember me
Just like the waves down by the shore
Were gonna keep on coming back for more
cause we dont ever wanna stop
Out in this brave new world you seek
Oh the valleys and the peaks
And I can see you on the top
Youll find better love
Strong as it ever was
Deep as the river runs
Warm as the morning sun
Please remember me
Remember me when youre out walkin
When the snow falls high outside your door
Late at night when youre not sleepin
And moonlight falls across your floor
When I cant hurt you anymore
Youll find better love
Strong as it ever was
Deep as the river runs
Warm as the morning sun
Please remember me
Please remember me
Pain
3 Days Grace
Pain, without love
Pain, I can't get enough
Pain, I like it rough
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all
You're sick of feeling numb
You're not the only one
I'll take you by the hand
And I'll show you a world that you can understand
This life is filled with hurt
When happiness doesn't work
Trust me and take my hand
When the lights go out you will understand
Pain, without love
Pain, I can't get enough
Pain, I like it rough
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all
Pain, without love
Pain, I can't get enough
Pain, I like it rough
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all
Anger and agony
Are better than misery
Trust me I've got a plan
When the lights go off you will understand
Pain, without love
Pain, I can't get enough
Pain, I like it rough
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all
Pain, without love
Pain, I can't get enough
Pain, I like it rough
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing
Rather feel pain
I know (I know I know I know I know)
That you're wounded
You know (You know you know you know you know)
That I'm here to save you
You know (You know you know you know)
I'm always here for you
I know (I know I know I know I know)
That you'll thank me later
Pain, without love
Pain, can't get enough
Pain, I like it rough
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all
Pain, without love
Pain, I can't get enough
Pain, I like it rough
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all
Pain, without love
Pain, I can't get enough
Pain, I like it rough
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all
Rather feel pain than nothing at all
Rather feel pain
Those lyrics and that song are me in a nutshell. I looooove that song!
My movies list is alot like my Music list, a very wide range. My favorites are... The Iron Giant, Finding Nemo, Children of Men, Legend, The Labryinth, Dirty Dancing, I love any and all Horror Movies, and I love the true cult movies...
HELLO Rocky Horror Picture Show!
DON'T DREAM IT, BE IT.
I also love all the Disney movies new and old, but you will be hard pressed to find anyone from my generation that does not.
I really do not get to watch alot of tv anymore, it seems like I am always working. But the ones that I make time for are The Family Guy, How I Met Your Mother, andHereos
My favorite book is "A hope for the flowers", it is the most amazing book every written and will inspire your life and our soul.
I love love love the Lemony Snicket Books, The Series of Unfortunate Events , there not literary works of art that some authors produce but they are alot of fun and I really enjoy them. I have found a passion for reading again here of late and well, a trip to the bookstore will leave me in the poorhouse. :)
Dare to dream, dare to fly, dare to be the ever chosen one to touch the sky!
My Granny. She is so wonderful, I have never seen someone with such a strong mind, body, and soul, and I am so proud to have her in my life. We lost her on May 4, 2006 and a part of my heart and soul died along with her, she is forever in my heart and I will cherish every minute that I had with her, as well as make every minute count from here on out to make sure that I never let her down.
