About Me

::::::I like to think I'm pretty interesting, but then again, I like to think a lot of things. I have fun living, I'm a vegan, I'm a dork, I'm a strong supporter of mirth and kindness in myself and others, I try to learn from where I am and what I'm doing. Among other things, I seem to occupy my time playing; Hockey, hooky, guitar, harmonica, music, games, cards, hiking, biking, camping, sunsets, sunrises...yaday yadda...Quotes by me, about me? ...sure: "If you can't ignore me...please be kind"..."In the end, all you can do is follow your heart and try not to be a dick about it to others."Yeh...that pretty much sums it up for me

My Interests

moving, kindness, joy/laughter, hockey, music, good friends, groovin', cold beer, reading, listening, learning, upsetting the norm, quiet revolution, butterfly wings, and more hockey ... and now that I said that...you can look for me #11 on Black...LOL (usually #3, but we change sometimes to keep the mojo flowin'...an No, we aren't usually so retarded...these are highlights...err...lowlights of a couple of years worth of being silly ;) ...

I'd like to meet:

You! :)Fun, smart and cool people who move. People with a plan. People who get it. People with passion. Wino's and malcontents welcome.Preferably ones who like me.. .. ...::::::
