About Me

Myspace Layouts Myspace Layouts******
Create your own Friend Quiz hereIs there anything I can put in here that hasn't already been said? I was born and raised in San Diego. Joined the Navy right out of high school. Big mistake. Got out of the military and moved to Vacaville (nor cal). Bounced around a few towns here. Had a kid. He's 8 now. Johnny Ray is my baby and he rocks!! I started my dreadlocks in October, 2005, after talking about doing it for probably 20 years or so. Yes, I fell in love with them before the age of 10 and told myself someday I would have them. Best decision I ever made! Then I met my wonderful friend Steve who is a miracle worker with dreadlocks. Here comes the plug... www.myspace.com/dreadsexyusa. A couple weeks before I started the dreads, I went vegetarian. I like it so far. I think I'll stick with it, lol.I'm really looking forward to this summer because of the many outdoor activities it offers. Music festivals (Reggae on the River here we come!!), camping, disc golf, going to the river and lake, playing in the park with my son.I just started working with Montana and Sith Entertainment. Doing promotions for local bands. I love it! I've always wanted to help with the music scene and finally someone needs me!! I am a bit biased when it comes to my friends band Minus Halo. I love these guys and their music is just flat out the SHIT!!! Their shows always kick ass and it's good times all around!! Check them out!!!

My Interests

Hangin' with my son (ain't he cute?)And check me out!!Making hemp jewelry, getting tattoos (just got number 9!!!), watching movies, music, live shows, local bands, talking to my best friends, bars/drinking, 420, reggae on the river, musicians, camping, swimming, disc golf, summertime, wintertime (for cuddling, lol) just being outdoors in general I suppose.....lots more, just ask......oh yeah and my spoiled rotten cats.

I'd like to meet:

People who love live shows and local music as much as I do!! Bands or people who want to be IN one, hit me up on my band page in my top friends!!

Music:

Ummm....above and by far: live shows!!!MINUS HALO IS THE SHIT!! CHECK THEM OUT!!Reggae, Jr. Gong, Michael Franti, Primus, NIN, Sublime, Raining Glass, Devon (and old Victory Gin), Mr. Bungle, Tori Amos, lots of classic rock....Led Zeppelin, Jimmy Buffett, Papa Roach (old stuff, when they were local), Nirvana, old Pearl Jam, i like lots of hard rock too. Anything from Ministry to Pantera to Gwar.... I'm pretty diverse in my music, I could go on for hours.

Movies:

Well, as of last weekend I have a new all time fave. It's called Feast. If you like horror movies, this one rocks my socks!! The 10th Kingdom (if you know of this 7 hour movie and I DIDNT' show it to you, you kick ass!!) The Boondock Saints, Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Harry Potters, Braveheart, Ravenous, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Bad(der) Santa, Drop Dead Gorgeous (I can't get enough of that North Dakota accent), Super Troopers, Weird Science, Pirates of the Caribbean, Kill Bill 1&2, Anchorman, Old School, The Crow, The Beach, Johnny Mnemonic, Constantine, damn, okay I own like 250 movies so I'm gonna stop now...

Television:

I don't watch too much TV. Usually I'd rather throw in a movie...but if I get the chance I like Las Vegas, Fear Factor and any of the good crime shows, like Law & Order, CSI, Cold Case, stuff like that. I'd rather watch stuff like the Discovery Channel, Food Network, The Learning Channel, Etc. Oh yeah, and I F@*%!&. hate the news...

Books:

Unfortunately, I haven't forced myself to have time to read as I should. Need to exercise the brain right? My fave fiction book (besides the classics like Lord of the Rings) is called Vurt by Jeff Noon. If you've never read it, check it out. It rocks. I also have a book called The Secret Language of Relationships that can match anyone by their birthday. It rocks too. I have read all the Harry Potters so far several times each. I also just discovered a new book called The Looking Glass Wars. Great so far!!

Heroes:

The person who told me I was crazy if I didn't think I was beautiful. He knows who he is. :-)
