About Me

turns ons include: low gas prices, ski socks, art galleries, sushi, raw umber, one ply toilet paper

turns offs include: lattice work, dial-up, condiment water, damp jeans, cheap tippers

i am easily amused. i love a glass of red wine or sipping on a good beer. i love a good laugh, one where you almost pee in your pants. music, music, music. i love driving, around town or cross country, mostly mountain driving though. if i were to be stuck on an island with one famous person, i would pick jon stewart. i hate pretentiousness. i love organizing. i don't have an "inside voice".

But, you sure can whip up a great chocolate mousse The Muppet Personality Test
