Sweet Jazzy G

About Me

I'm at the point in my life where I speak my mind and enjoy the simple things (beach, kisses from my dog, a really good drink, call from an old friend, sunrise, sunset...hearing the ocean waves etc). I love being around positive people as well as funny. Also, love a really good meal whether I cooked it or someone else. I LOVE LOVE contemporary jazz and PRINCE's music. I don't care for anyone who has alot of drama or foolishness.I love being around someone who can expose me to something new whether it's a new author, musician, art....as long as we're learning from one another... I know it may sound boring but that's just me.I love to laugh and will laugh at ya! :-)
