I am here for Friends

About Me

What about me? Really? You wanna know? You're in for a treat.
I'm not the best person. I'm not gonna lie. You'll get that a lot of that online. "Look at me! Look at me! I'm wonderful. I'm the best thing around! I have no drama or issues, no expectations at all, am fun all day, every day and I'm gorgeous!"
Yea . . that ain't me. I'm hot-headed, bad tempered, sharp-tongued, impatient and I throw tantrums (I rarely throw things, though, so there's that). I have bad credit. No car. A sparse selection of pants. I burp, I fart, I pick my nose. I get moody. I get bored. I don't like to watch sports on TV, I don't fish or go camping. Surprisingly, I'm single, have no kids, I've never been married. I've wrecked . . hmmm, what is it now . . . 4 . . . no 5 cars (no, they weren't all totaled or all mine). I'm under the impression I don't drink enough. I've lived in 8 different cities, 5 different states, moved 15 times in as many years. I like to and can cook, but don't. I have no couch. I'm bad in bed. I talk while I chew. My feet stink. And, I'm not the prettiest thing you'll ever see. Um, yea, that about says it all. :) And, okay, I'm only half-joking . . . but, which half is it? That's the question.

My Interests

What involves chocolate, the wind on your face and kissing? A chocolate pie acrobatic hurling contest in the nude? I mean . . . you gotta be nude, right?

I'd like to meet:

What tree did you fall from? Find your birthday, find your tree and then scroll down... This is really cool and somewhat accurate, also in line with Celtic astrology.

Music:

Um . . . I have no real preference when it comes to music. With the exception of heavy, open-up-a-vein metal, I like most of it most of the time.

Movies:

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, Shirley Valentine, Pan's Labryinth, Halloween, Clue, Hair, Fame, Animal House, Its a Wonderful Life, Waitress.....The list is long and continues to grow.

Television:

I will watch anything except: soap operas, bad reality tv, game shows, gossip shows, mediocre sitcoms, anything involving Britney Spears or predictable formulaic writing. . . .Nevermind.

Books:

I CAN read and, therefore, COULD read.

Heroes:

I don't have heroes. I admire beautifully flawed human beings; their souls wrapped in fragile and flimsy sparkly skin.
