The one note whistler

About Me

If you would like to randomly add me, go here: www.myspace.com/thegruffbandI spend too much time sitting in front of my computer listening to the various of new mp3's I get sent and playing minesweeper or solitaire. My secret love affair with my bass is not so secret anymore as I play in a folky band, The Gruff. The only other not so secret thing about me is my inability to keep my party girl quiet when the night life calls...especially if G&T's are in the plan.If you message me, I will answer. If you want to randomly add me as a friend just to boost your friends list, go to the addy above. I wanna meet people, not just be another face on a list thanks. :DOkay, and a final note, if you message me looking for a "good time", don't expect an answer....or at least a polite one.
