About Me

My favorite Quotes: "Everything happens for a reason." "I am an open book. I always have been, but can you read the language that I was written in?" "Love is a compulsion. Not a choice. And pain is the price we pay." Father Time says "The clock is always ticking. Never waste time."

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Robin Williams because he's the best comedian in history in my opinion.

Music:

..
Myspace Codes

Movies:

Princess Bride - All about true love. Wish it were real. Crow - And all of the sequels.

Television:

If you like them enough to buy the seasons on DVD, then they better be good. I love: Farscape - Still mad that they canceled it. Firefly - REALLY mad that they canceled it. Serenity rocks! Buffy and Angel - Yes I am a fan too. Smallville - who can resist. NCIS, CSI and Crossing Jordan - all go together as great television.

Books:

I love fantasy!! I believe in dragons and unicorns on a mountaintop high, clashing with wonder over a midnight sky. I have been the Valdemar series by Mercedes Lackley since I was a teen. I also have enjoyed "Wicked" by Gregory Maguire.

Heroes:
