Deconstruct what's not there

About Me

I like the color blue. I am a clear blue sky loving person at heart, but I don't mind the rain. I like to be outdoors breathing in the fresh air and enjoying the brightness and warmth of the sun. I think nature is beautiful. I love the stars, butterflies and roses. I also love to travel and will be doing that this summer. I can't even name all the places I'd like to visit. Life is there to be explored and enjoyed!! I'd like to leave sometime and go to Pluto. I think I'd like it there. Ok, well, my planet has been "demoted" to a dwarf planet...no longer an official planet in our solar system. What a sacrilege...

My Interests

Test me O Lord, and try me, examine my heart and mind; for your love is ever before me, and I walk continually in your truth.--Psalm 26:2-3. Justin King.

I'd like to meet:

An angel in disguise.

adopt your own virtual pet! jack is a hedgehog. he is nocturnal, like me, although I don't sleep all day nor am i prickly unless I haven't had enough sleep. he's shy and cool.

Music:

I LOVE music. I pretty much listen to all kinds of music and love going to see bands live (my second career)!! I used to work in a record store while I was in college and my manager was always surprised at what I was buying...I don't limit myself to what other people think I should be listening to, whether they think it's cool or not. Most of my paycheck went to buying music anyway--wasn't very helpful in paying for college.
I saw him live in 1995 at Great American Music Hall in SF. Was he amazing...truly, yes.

Movies:

I love the movies. Little Miss Sunshine. I also kind of like Scooby Doo, at least there was no Scrappy Doo or whatever his name was in it! The cinematic merits of watching a cartoon come to life on the silver screen....indescribable.

Television:

No TV. I love watching Anderson Cooper on CNN because he seems like an intelligent, thoughtful, involved anchor. Again, I don't get to see him much since I don't watch TV that much but I'm interested in reading his new book.

Books:

I love to read. I have stacks of books that I haven't found the time to read. I want to read The Alchemist and Miracle in the Andes. I like Dickens. A River Runs Through It. The Beach by Alex Garland, although the movie was really bad.

Heroes:

God. "Sincerity is the way of Heaven."--Mencius. "Wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving."--Kahlil Gibran.

See you then

I feel like a prisoner.  A prisoner caught in a stranglehold that will not relent.  I want to see the world but the world does not want to see me.  Sleepless nights and strange awakenin...

Let it all go

You simply make your bed and lie in it. You run around in circles and you can't remember why. If the days pass so slowly, then you should soak it all in. When rhyme or reason have no place in your lif...

Does life pass you by when you're standing still

I think that's a U2 song...Running to Stand Still, except I'm standing still and things are passing me by.  Well, if that doesn't make sense, I never said I was logical or smart.  lol. ...
