About Me

Complex and Simple - Go figure that one out. Actually I do enjoy the simple things in life; spending time with family; hanging out with friends; sitting around a fire drinking wine, sangria or martinis; meeting new people and becoming friends; talking to strangers.How about just the simple act of smiling at a stranger and watching their face either light up and return the smile or just look at you like - "What?" Most tiems they will smile back and might even say hello. We need to smile more at one another and say "Hello". Let people know that they are specialI can't let this pass without saying what my favorite pastime is - RIDING ROLLER COASTERS. Now, I've only been to Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio. It's the best in my opinion. I love going down there and if you ever feel like joining me - just ask and I'll let you know the next time I'm going. Now I'll challange you... If you think that there is a better place for coasters, I'd be happy to go try them out with you. If you live nearby a park, even more the better - instant place to crash. LOLI love to play guitar, flute and piano. Yeah, even sing once in a while - but don't listen to me sing karaoke when I've had a few too many drinks. It's pretty funny or bad, depending on how you look at it. Just ask my friend Kevin.

My Interests

I love Cooking Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. Good desserts are awesome. Now I believe that you should enjoy all of a meal with some Great Wine & Spirts. They compliment one another - - -I enjoy the Arts; Watching Plays; Listening to symphony; Going to Concerts, or just attending a museums or art display. - - -Roller Coasters "CEDAR POINT" - What more can I say. - - -Music: Playing my instruments; Composing new pieces and just listening to music. - - -Designing Homes - Inside & Out - Gardening -

I'd like to meet:

Genuine fun people who enjoy life.I'd like to meet friends; people ot hang out with over a home cooked meal with a bottle of wine or a good beverage. I'd like to meet people who like to just hang out and play cards; watch a movie or just talk. I'd like to make friends who enjoy life, but don't become ruled by the fact that enjoyment means going to the bar all the time. I'd like to meet my soul-mate and share life with one another.

Music:

Everything but Twangy Country. If you like JAZZ - check out my friend John's website. His first CD came out on August 1, 2006. The site is www.johnproulx.com

Movies:

I like most everything - I'll tell you if I don't. My all time favorite is Simon Birch.

Television:

OK - HERE GOESAmerican Idol -- -- So You Think You Can Dance (How sad that IVAN got voted off) -- -- That 70's Show - So sad it's over, but not on DVD Prison Break -- -- The O.C. -- -- House -- -- I guess I just love the FOX Network.
