About Me


I'm simple yet complicated. I take joy in everyday miracles, like the sunrise or laughter. I'm a plain bagel kind of girl, but don't think that makes me boring. It would be impossible for me to explain how much I love my family and friends. I'm pretty good at blackjack, but I don't have a gambling problem... yet. People have always told me that I am very mature for my age. I also like to act like a kid sometimes, because you have to be young at heart to stay happy. I get cranky when I'm tired but I'm usually in a chipper mood. I would love to run a marathon one day, but unfortunately I hate running. I'm kind to everyone around me, but don't mistake that for weakness.
For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life. This perspective has helped me to see there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So treasure every moment you have and remember that time waits for no one. Happiness is a journey, not a destination. Souza

My Interests

I enjoy drinking red wine, reading horoscopes, jet skiing, summers at the beach, snowmobiling in the winter, wearing black & white, eating Italian or Mexican food, trying to become a better person, spending time with family and friends, looking at old photos, sleeeeeeping (of course!), concerts, movie nights, Broadway shows, all types of music... from rap to country and even jazz sometimes! VEGAS! &hearts Blackjack&hearts
