Favorite Number= 33 ,The Owl is my totem.I adore my friends and family,laughing is one of my favorite pastimes, I love appreciating music and art, creating music and art, reading cool shit , the theater, writing , metaphysics,philosophy,animals,birdwatching,hanging out with kids, gardening, climbing up mountains and floatin' down rivers,backpacking,campfires, running, kickin' it with Mother Nature ,and having great adventures... I'm a big fan of Planet Earth...people watching, board games (wordworm), crossword puzzles, bowling, frisbee, hoola-hoopingeating yummy food, spernting, biking or walking around town with no particular destination, cool conversations with perfect strangers, playing piano making up goofy songs on my guitar , Oh yeah, throwing some glitter on random humps, hitting golf balls, shooting baskets, serving some shit up, and challenging myself on a regular basis. I also like to step outside of my element to alter my perception from time to time
