About Me

I will not die an unlived life. I will not live in fear of falling or catching fire. I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my living to open me, to make me less afraid, more accessible, to loosen my heart until it becomes a wing, a torch, a promise. I choose to risk my significance, to live so that which came to me as seed goes to the next as a blossom, and that which came to me as a blossom, goes on as a fruit. ~ Dawna MarkovaI like writing, reading and rithmatic. I really like math. Sometimes I just want to divide both sides of the equation by x. I am learning to be a better typist, friend, cook, dancer, sports player and musician, not all in that order. I hate it when people leave their blinkers on when they have no intention of changing lanes. I really hate it when parents tell thier kids to shut up. Not cool. In the city of Sanya on the southern tip of Hainan Island in China lies Tianyahaijiao Beach. Tianyahaijiao is a proveb meaning "To the end of the earth and corner of the sea". I long to go there and be still.

My Interests

You...so don't be shy, introduce yourself. I don't bite...not hard anyway...unless you like that.

Palm Desert? It should be named Bug Desert!

I have moved to the cricket capital of the world.  Since settling into my new digs, there have been more nights than I can count that I have had a little chirper in my house.  This does not ...

What do I do now?

This kills me.  Why oh why does, God, mother nature, maybe the devil, set us up for this?  Someone is attracted to you, but you are not to them.  Why does this kill me?  I try to b...

Surfing and motorcycles and cute smiles, oh my!

I have a huge crush.  I always get them for guys that are SOOO not available.  I think it is because they are safe.  There is no way they can break you heart because they will never be ...

Does this require some powder or a salve?

Welcome to 2008

    A new year is a perfect time to start over.  I was thinking why that is today.  I suppose it is due to the fact that it gives us an easy reference point to see how far you...
