About Me

Spent my early adult life as a college DJ, and dabbled in recording engineering. Was a pro DJ at a large rock station in California for several years. Was married ten years. Got a corporate job during my marriage. Divorced. Kept the corporate job. Been single almost 5 years. Left the corporate job in August 2006. Been crunching numbers for a tax accounting firm for a couple of years. I love hearing new bands. I love when old bands get back on the road! I took up mountain biking in January 2007 and I went to Portugal in May 2007 to ride. This year I have ridden on the road more than in the dirt, but I haven't been convinced to give up my mountain bike! I decided to pick up a tennis racquet again. I suck, but I'm having fun playing. I'm trying to convince myself that I can play soccer again too. Watching Eurocup has made me put air in my soccer ball. I've gone to the park and kicked in around a little, but I wouldn't call myself a "soccer player" just yet. I'd love to meet some new friends who want to hang out and go to some concerts or who like to ride bicycles/play tennis/soccer or who like to travel. (or who want to go to Europe and combine concert-going and bicycling!) Seriously, I'm not THAT crazy. Or maybe I am? Oh yeah, I am never without my camera. I love to take pictures!

About being content in ones own head

I'm not one to blog about the weather, but I must set the atmosphere in which these thoughts have converged in my head. Last week it was unseasonably almost 100*F for several days. Yesterday it was co...

Does having a boyfriend make a woman sexier?

The question in life to ponder today is: "Does having a boyfriend make a woman sexier/more desirable to other men than a woman who is completely single?" I ask this because in the last month I h...
