something witty eh? ...i got nothin.

About Me

i hate talking about myself. i never want it to come off sounding cocky. i hate arrogence. but here we go...i'll give it a whirl.music....i love it. you know that feeling you get when you listen to a really great song and you just feel it all over and all the little hairs on your arms stand on end...you really can't describe it, you can only feel it. that has to be the best feeling in the world.martinis...specifically dirty martinis. with extra olives of course. i think that i am personally going to make it my mission to reinstate cocktail hour. i think it would be a fabulous idea if at 4 o'clock everyday, everyone took out their cocktail shakers and mixed themselves a martini...hell, mix your neighbour one. sharing is fun.books. a little escapism never hurt anyone. (see previous)friends. i think i might just have the best set of friends in the world. there isn't a day that goes by that i'm not thankful that they saw fit to put up with me for as long as they have. the little things and the big things - couldn't have gotten thru any of it without them.ok...that last bit was a little cheesy. i'll stop now.
