March 26, 2007 is D-Day! Yay

About Me

Andrea. Who is she? I often wonder this myself. As of late, I wonder this a lot. Am I to have my one great "life epiphany" in the short days to come? Or is this something that will happen when I am old and gray... given the chance that I will be old and gray.
Not like its that far off.
Life is, after all, a matter of blinks. Each one takes away something, reveals something else, and ..wets your eyes so that you can continue to view a little of each.
So we were discussing who Andrea is. I was listening to something earlier today, June 8, 2007.. and there was this challenge. Step back and Realy take a look at yourself. Who are you? Can you truly see yourself from a different perspective? The good and the bad? And I take that challenge.
So Who Am I?
Andrea is: Vulnerable, she is human. She is caring, sometimes daring, but even in her daring, never is she "not afraid". She witnesses life with the eyes of the wise, while learning with the heart of a child. She can be a furious leader, protector. A gentle comforter... nurturer. But at times she finds it best to follow. To watch ..see.. realy see..
She can seek your revenge if she feels you deserve it. She is... a mother. Not the best in the world, but she does try. She isn't superhuman, but she can wipe a tear from their eyes and sometimes catch the fleeting glimpse from them that says "You are my hero." And sometimes she cries when they hate her, even if just for a few minutes after being scolded.. She knows that they will love her again.
She is.. a hopeless romantic who still believes that one day if she is worthy enough, she will feel. Realy feel. See the emotion.. taste the sweetness and breathe in the intoxication that blinds you of any negativity.. she believes...
She hopes for a better future, a cleaner way. To be not alone, but surrounded by all those who care, who respect one another. She dreams..
Andrea is, just that, She is Andrea. A maker of mistakes. Someone who jumps in feet first at times and forgets to take a deep breath before being pulled under the crashing waves. Someone who gives the benefit of the doubt to the wrong person and shuns the right person.. she .. is human. She makes mistakes. She thinks without Speaking, she speaks before she thinks.. She lets a moment slide by that could of meant everything to the person and situation, because she has her guilt. She has her fears. She has her pain and she has her blame. Andrea is, Human.
And Andrea is who I am.
Suffer all Ye Emo Children.. Suffer and be distressed.. It just leaves me more room on the dance floor if you are hiding in the corners cutting yourself anyways...

My Interests

Gentle Night, I hear you beckon.
I bask beneath your Promised Vision.
Fill me with your Eminent Wisdom.
Insinuate my souls empty spaces.
Shield me from Conspicuous Vulgarity.
Remind me that some Humanity exists.
Offer Harmony, to which I can confide.
Enshroud me Night, so that I might Survive.
~Andrea Cool
"You are the air that stirs my burning ember to life from a seemingly dead and gray, cold pile of ashes.....threatening to burst into flames at any moment...to consume the very thing that churns me.."~Me

Quote "Fuck you! Fuck you with something..Hard..and Sandpapery!" ~ Liam Sullivan AKA Kelly

I have a fond love for written word. Poetry. Arts become me. I love to bellydance while I am trancing and tuning into the energies that surround me. I love to capture the essence of a persons emotions on film.. I love to experience through others. Listening and watching. This is but only a few of my interests. If I gave them all away, I wouldn't be a very Interesting person to get to know, now would I?

*pulls string* ........The Japanese Fighter Crayfish goes.... "KIOSK!"...*whining noise of string winding back in*

I'd like to meet:

The One who make a Leap of Faith...No.. doesn't have to jump off a building.. but.. it better be something unique and spectacular and breathtaking... I'm an overly romantic person.. you ain't gonna impress me with fucking lame ass shit every other girl falls for.. nuff said..



Now, roses and violets please many a wench,
But I've found a taste for the cane and the bench,
And bunches of blossoms be treated with scorn,
It's "To hell with the roses - just give me the thornes!"
~THE ROPES by S Hartwell

I love way too many Movies.. so I'll just list a few of them. Phantom of the Opera, Quills, Legend, The Neverending Story (No, not the sequels..) The Seventh Sign, Princess Bride, Poltergeist, hrm.. I'll add more as I think of the ones that really stand out that I would watch again without getting bored.

Television:

Heroes, House, Lost, CSI, 4400, Law and Order. IN that order, yes

Books:

I read .. No, I don't think you understand. I READ a LOT! So to keep the list down a little, I will tell you what I am reading at the moment. So this will change from time to time.
Wheel of Time Series

Books that influenced my reading so much?:
Alas Babylon
Stephen King-too many to list
Anne Rice-Too many to list
Keats
Green Gables (yes.. when I was a kid.. I read this series)
Pippi Longstocking was another from childhood.
Various Romance novels.. God did I read the hell out of those for a while.
Various Vampire based stories.. read the hell out of those too.
I'm not kidding when I say I've read a lot.. that's ALL I used to be allowed to do.

Heroes:


My Children:
Gage, because he brought new life to me, made me see that it was worth living. His humor always puts me back in the right frame of mind.. even when I can not admit it.
Maura, who see's life through eyes of justice and leads herself with a good heart. She is compassion.
Erica because she knows what she wants, when she wants it and she hard headed enough to get it. Be it by wit or pure pushing, she is strong. Bold. Outgoing.
Autumn, because she always has a smile on her face and even in the dreariest of days she will look at me and smile that smile and it cheers me up. She is my Happy Go Lucky.
My Non Lesbian, Platonic WIFE, Laura. She has been the stone foundation that's kept me upright ever since I met her. She is NOT afraid to tell it like she see's it and she will also be the first to console me when I truly need it, without pity. Honest. She is a Mother of 4 boys and She might be irish, but piss her off and I see an italian backhand coming at ya! She is THE BEST Second Parent my Kids have EVER had. She's a better "Momma" To Autumn than her Father will EVER be at being "Dad".. Chew on it fagboy.
