I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm a Pisces, emotional, passionate, happy and a bundle of contradictions. I heard a new quote that sums up my perspective: The average life is dead ordinary and truly, truly amazing.
I say my favorite color is "paisley". Problem is: most people dont even know that paisley is a pattern. And comes in all sorts of colors. Blended together. Thats me. I'm paisley.
If you understand what the hell I'm talking about (and YES I took a few drugs in the 80's) then maybe we can be friends. Talk to me. I dont do chat - I dont usually sit in one place long enough to wait for an IM.
And please guys: dont send me pics of your penis. I've seen plenty in my time and am madly in love - so I'm just not interested. I'm happy for you that you're so proud of it though.

My Interests

The Outer Banks of NC. Specifically: Hatteras - hence my name Hatteras_mel. Some might even say I'm a wee bit obsessed about the place - but I've been going since I was a baby and it's the place I most feel at home. I dont know if I'll ever live there - I'm afraid some of the shine would rub off it if I lived there full time. But I need to visit about 2x a year or I go into fits of twitches...
Music (especially live), good (dark) beer, hiking, gardening, photography. And shoes - love my shoes.

I'd like to meet:

Maybe no one... I'm a friendly introvert...

Music:

Come back to the site and listen to my music-player - you should figure it out.
I Love XM Squizz - pretty typical of what I listen to. Think somewhere between Hard Rock and Soft Metal (is there such a thing?). With some blues and soul thrown in. Maybe some Funk sprinkled on top.
Just NOT Pop. Hate pop. Can not stand the canned, recorded crap written by some fat guy hiding in the hills of Hollywood, sung by some weight obsessed vocalist and bought by billions of adoring teenage fans. If billions of people *LOVE* you - you're doing something wrong. In my humble opinion.

Movies:

sure... love horror and scary stuff, sci fi, comedy - whatever... I have trouble sitting through a whole movie in one sitting - but DVD's take care of that issue for me :)

Television:

I don't really watch much TV. Pretty much anything on Comedy Central is good... and love channels like the History Channel and National Geographic...

Books:

Sci-fi and Fantasy (Vampires, Witches & Were-things, oh my!). Before Chris - I would read about 3 or 4 books a month. Now - he keeps me busy in my real life - not much time to read anymore...

Heroes:

My sister Kathy for saving my childhood and being my best friend.
Chris for saving my heart.
Our Troops
And all of the everyday working-class heroes.

Floyd quote:
"Did they get you to trade
your heros for ghosts,
hot ashes for trees,
hot air for a cool breeze,
cold comfort for change,
and did you exchange
a walk-on part in the war
for a lead role in a cage."
