About Me


Full Scorpio...passionate, funny, jealous, intense, sometimes wild eyed....and yes, I can be a pain in the ass sometimes....






My Interests

Winning the lottery.Like to play a little roulette...Also, love gardening...Partying..."Reminds me of my safari in Africa. Somebody forgot the corkscrew and for several days we had to live on nothing but food and water." W. C. Fields.Bleeding Red and Blue a/k/a following the Ole Miss Rebels in football...Auburn's Obomanu dropping the pass....game over.2004 Cotton Bowl winners...In yo' face!Boomer: R.I.P. my son....11/3/91-6/9/07. I'll always love you.Also loving Emma, our Lab Mix...Loving my s/o...Enjoying the best in life: the beach, traveling to the Caribbean....I've been lucky....been to Jamaica, St. Thomas and St. Croix, Key West, Cozumel...and when I die, scatter my ashes on the beaches down island...New Orleans...You only go around once in life (remember that); you can't take it with you, and I don't want to be 85 and wishing that I'd done this and that. I've traveled a lot in my short life, and want to do more...as I've always said, I work to live life, I don't live life to work.

I'd like to meet:

Stephen King, for sure....naughty boy Anthony Bourdain...and a very young Jimmy Buffett....Patrick Willis....How to Make the Perfect Tackle...watch.....

Music:

Another huge category for me....Top of the list is Jimmy Buffett and Terri Clark. I know, there's a huge disparity between the two types of music, but that is me.I love the 70's disco/dance stuff like Wild Cherry, Right Said Fred, The Ohio Players, etc.....Also like Linda Ronstadt, Kenny Chesney......love the old rock stuff like Lynyrd Skynyrd...especially classic groups like Montrose with a very young Sammy Hagar....In addition to the funky stuff like Rick James...I like some Rap, like Nelly....also like Buck Cherry...Listen to Sublime sometime....what a waste of a great talent...The old Motown tunes like The Four Tops....love the Black Crowes...The Pretenders (with Chrissie Hynde) and of course, the Hollies.

Movies:

Woo...haven't been to one in a long while, but liked "War of the Worlds".Also really liked Ghost Ship, a very underrated movie with a killer soundtrack...Love old movies with Betty Davis and the like....Kate Hepburn, Myrna Loy/Bill Powell (The Thin Man series), etc.Loved the Indiana Jones movies as well. You have to admit, Harrison Ford is one sexy something in those shows....

Television:

I really don't know what's on when, but I do watch "No Reservations" with bad boy Tony Bourdain...Love "Sex and the City". My s/o bought me the COMPLETE "Sex and the City" set (the deluxe, deluxe edition) for Christmas. The ULTIMATE gift, in my opinion!!Also love the cooking channel and like to watch those haunted shows on Discovery too....cheap thrills, I know.

Books:

Just finished Tony Bourdain's "Kitchen Confidential" and loved it...also have read "A Cook's Tour" and "The Nasty Bits". Eating at a restaurant will never be the same again...Love anything by Stephen King. Not as much time to read nowadays, but still love a good book. It's always "better than the movie".

Heroes:

My Grandmother...and my Mother...two women of the South who are/were of a generation that was the GREATEST generation. Timeless, classic, unforgettable.Oh, and of course, Patsy Stone...
