I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm a late twenty-something who wants to enjoy life! I'm pretty mellow with a hint of crazy in me. I'd rather make life enjoyable and entertaining than stressful and overwhelming. I'm very passionate about my friends and family...when it comes right down to it, they are my backbone.

My Interests

I enjoy kicking back and having a drink - either beer or coffee (whatever the mood calls for!)- and having fascinating conversation with good friends. I love to be out and about, and spontaneous destinations are always fun, so picking up and going somewhere on a whim is great...I love taking drives in the car. Either on Road Trips or just down to the beach, it's always exciting to see where we'll end up. I have a huge interest in Theatre...Once upon a time I was a Theatre Arts major in college. I have an interest in pretty much any aspect of Fine Arts. The creativity fascinates me! ..

I'd like to meet:

I'd really like to get in touch with people with whom I've lost contact with over the years, as well as meet new friends.

Music:

Avid 93.1 Jack FM listener!....But besides that, anything from the 80's and 90's (doesn't really narrow it down), Showtunes, Joni Mitchell, Josh Groban, anything jazzy, Blues, Michael Buble, The Rat Pack, Classic Rock. The Beatles, Eric Clapton, Billy Joel, Norah Jones, Tori Amos, The Monkees, Sarah Brightman, Michael Crawford, Big Band. I'm a recent Fleetwood Mac and Prince convert...I've also been known to crank up Disco Saturday Night and dance like a maniac. I will listen to just about anything.

Movies:

Back to the Future Trilogy is my favorite, Somewhere in Time, Bridget Jones' Diary, Singin' in the Rain, The Illusionist, Lost in Translation, The English Patient, Love Actually, Indiana Jones, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Princess Bride, Secretary, Wayne's World, Young Frankenstein, Sideways, O Brother Where Art Thou?, When Harry Met Sally, Girl With a Pearl Earring, Closer...Any chick flicks.

Television:

Not around TV a whole lot lately.

Books:

I've read quite a few Dean Koontz books, but it's been a while.

Heroes:

My oldest and dearest friend, Ja'Nene. I consider her my soulmate.

"In Sleep He Sang To Me, In Dreams He Came..."

15 years ago, I was given a cd from a musical and was told to listen to it.  I immediately fell in love with what I heard coming from my speakers.  I would listen over and over to the intens...

Mid-Year Resolutions

I've had a lot on my mind lately...been through a lot, learned a lot, and have just in general been thinking about myself and life.  There's so many things pressing on me that I've decided that I...

The Music of the Night

My New, Un-ghetto Car

I've done it...I finally bought a new car! It's a 2005 Ford Focus in French Blue. I have joined Ofelia, Shawnnie, and Shannon in the Paradise Pier Focus craze. We really need to start a club.

My Ghetto Car

My 1988 Nissan Sentra has been a great friend, but I'm sick of fixing it. I just celebrated 200,000 miles on that thing! It's been good to me, up until now, when every other week something goes wron...

Staying up late with Shakespeare

I feel very dreamy  tonight, sitting here in the dark with candles burning and soothing music,  so, in an effort to release some of my pondering, I thought I'd share my favorite Shakespeare sonnet wit...
