About Me

Cocktails and Dreams

My Interests

My Catholic faith is very important to me. I'm an active member of the Knights of Columbus, Valladolid Council # 70 in Lynn, MA. I'm also happy to be a Eucharistic Minister and usher at my Parish.I play drums for the world famous Rabbitfoot, along with Scottish, B-Nutz and Pete Rock.It's safe to say I'm obsessed with music. Anything I enjoy is enjoyed that much more when there's music involved.I also enjoy Girl Scout cookies, Nike's, mini-golf, good beer, baseball caps, thought provoking conversation, The Mets, coffee, Best Buy, pizza, new clothes, fantasy football and the company of my friends.

I'd like to meet:

I want a girl with extensions in her hair Bamboo earrings At least two pair A fendi bag and a bad attitude That’s all I need to get me in a good mood She can walk with a switch and talk with street slang I love it when a woman is scared to do her thing Standing at the bus stop sucking on a lollipop Once she gets pumping it’s hard to make the hottie stop She likes to dance to the rap jam She sweet as brown sugar with the candied yams Honey coated complexion Using camay Lets hear it for the girl she’s from around the wayI need an around the way girl Around the way girl That’s the one for me She’s the only one for me I need an around the way girl (you got me shook up shook down shook out on your loving)Silky, milky her smile is like sunshine That’s why I had to dedicate at least one rhyme To all the cuties in the neighborhood Cause if I didn’t tell you then another brother would Your sweet like sugar with your gangster talk Want to eat you like a cookie when I see you walk With your rayon, silk or maybe even denim It really doesn’t matter as long as you’re in them You can break hearts and manipulate minds Or surrender act tender be gentle and kind You always know what to say and do Cold flip when you think your man is playing you Not cheap but petty You’re ready for loving You’re real independent so your parents be bugging But if you ever need a place to stay Come around my wayI need an around the way girl Around the way girl That’s the one for me She’s the only one for me To the bridge I need an around the way girlPerm in your hair or even a curly weave With that new edition bobby brown button on your sleeve I tell you come here You say meet me half way Cause brothers been popping that game all day Around the way you’re like a neighborhood jewel All the home boys sweat you so you’re crazy cool Wear your gold in the summer with your biking shorts While you watching all the brothers on the basketball court Going to the movies with your home girls crew While the businessmen in suits be hawking you Baby, hair pumping, lip gloss is shining I think you in the mood for whining and dining So we can go out and eat somewhere We got a lot of private jokes to share Lisa, angela, pamela, renee I love you you’re from around the wayI need an around the way girl Around the way girl That’s the one for me She don’t love him I need an around the way girl An around the way girl Fine as can be She oh yea I need an around the way girl Around the way girl That’s the one for me The only one for me I need an around the way girl An around the way girl Fine as can be
