Brewing Beer, Travel, and Renaissance Festivals... that's just a sampling though as the list tends to be endless... if nothing else I'm usually game to give new things a try before I ruling them out... of course then there's Skydiving - better make sure the pilot is jumping right in front of me, so I know there's no damm way that plane is going to land safely and I have no choice but to jump...
Someone who hasn't forgotten how to dream or be a kid at heart while still managing to grow up in their day in and day out life. Passionate and tender while confident and secure. Someone who is capable of sharing in my excitment and sorrows when needed. Also someone who is not loud and obnoxious but still knows how to be fun in and out of a crowd.
I like new and old, Country and Rock, Classical and Jazz. I love music from the Renaissance Period and from RenFaires - specially brawdy pub songs and sea shantys! Favorite instruments include - Celtic Harp, Celtic Flute, Irish Fiddle, and Cello stuff... heck even been known to enjoy bagpipes every now and then (although after a couple tunes it does start to sound like someone is torturing several cats in a barrel!!
A wide variety of favorites here - a great topic of conversation for sure.
The West Wing, ER, The Unit, 24, House, Greys Anatomy--- those are just whats programed in to my DVR but there's tons of other stuff... A bit of a news freak, like knowing what the weathers going to do and all those channels of general interest stuff about military history, industry and all that cool stuff - yeah I can get lost in TV Land real easy....
I consider myself "well read" and have quite the diverse library at my house, albeit most are in boxes right now - they've been all read at least a couple times... love biographys and adventure reading... Some mystery and novel stuff also. Most recent book I've read was the one that the TV show "Dangerous Catch" is based on about Crab Fishing in Alaska. I've got "The Divinci Code", a "Harry Potter", and Victor Hugos "Les Miserables" sitting there ready to read though.
One person I do look up to is a woman who having just returned from a hard deployment to Iraq in September is now getting ready to go back into Harms Way - yep in to another bad part of Iraq for a year (I know, I know - there isn't a good part of Iraq right?) To that person and they know who they are - YOU WILL BE IN MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS EVERY DAY YOU ARE IN IRAQ!!!!!
