I don't really want to explain myself to the masses. It's easier to get to know me on your own. I have a dry sense of humor, and sometimes I act a little retarded. But if you can't laugh at yourself, what can you laugh at? I don't really talk about myself a lot, so begining all of these sentences with "I" is starting to annoy me. I'm really not this self-absorbed. Let's see- I take care of my disabled mother, and help her to raise my two little sisters, while being a single mom of two boys. I have my hands full, obviously. I love to read, write, sing, dance, and paint. I spend more time on the internet than I should, and I enjoy excercise.

I'm about to go back to school, and finally decided on a path to take after changing it many times. I "plan" to major in art, specializing in photography, and minor in english lit. I'm taking care of my basics, and that will keep me going in the event that I change my mind- AGAIN. I kinda wanna make movies. Not like home movies, but I have read some great books that I would love to see as movies. There are so many things I want to learn how to do, but haven't had the opportunity yet. Some of them are: Foreign languages, cello, guitar, ballet, salsa, swing dance, better art techniches, carpentry, and opera.

Reading, and I have good grammar most days. I'm a pretty good speller. I have a lot of experience with kids and I think I'm good at being with them and taking care of them. I'm also decent at (yes I'm going to say it again) dancing. I'd like to learn more styles though. Semantics, and playing the devil's advocate.

I am really small framed. I hate being called skinny or anorexic. I just keep in shape, and have an extremely high metabolism. But sometimes people notice my glasses. And I fidget. A lot. ADHD kinda does that to a person.

*I love Anne Rice, Dracula was a great read, Edgar Allen Poe, Harry Potter, The Dark Tower Series, Gregory McGuire, William Shakespeare, and most other classic British Literature.

*All 4 Crow movies, Austin Powers trilogy, Nightmare Before Christmas, Breakfast Club, House of a Thousand Corpses, most horror movies, Donnie Darko, Serenity, Phantom of the Opera, Edward Scissorhands, Karate Kid, Stardust, Labyrinth, Mulan, Romeo+Juliet, Better than Chocolate, But I'm a Cheerleader

*A little of everything but mostly rock(classic, punk, metal, alternative), new wave, and techno. My faves are Tool, Smashing Pumpkins, Deftones, NIN, Tori Amos, The Cure, Modest Mouse, Within Temptation, Kill Hannah. I could list more but it would take more room than I'm alloted I'm sure.

*As a woman I'd have to say chocolate comes first. I also enjoy Italian, Chinese (especially pizza which was brought to Italy from China by accident), Mexican. I can't eat onions, but do enjoy the flavor they provide when cooked into foods. Also, I'm deathly allergic to cherries, so I tend to stay away from them. I've been told that in most cultures, puffer fish aren't extemely attractive. Oh and I really like hot pockets. They're breath-taking.

Well, I'm assuming that these six things would not be essential for survival. That said, my list is as follows:

My Children
My Glasses
Music
Chocolate
Books
Intelligent conversation (which is much harder to come by these days).

The meaning of life, and why I do what I do. I think pretty deeply about life and how everything is connected in some way. I like to imagine and wonder about how all decisions, big and small, can affect so many other things, even if we don't notice right away or even at all. I guess you could say that I have no regrets because if I went back and changed any moment in my life, I would not have my boys, nor would I have the experience or life lessons that I learned in the process. That said I wouldn't be who I have grown into, and I've learned to love me. I also wonder why people change who they are for someone else. If you love someone, love them for who they are, flaws included. And if they love you, the same goes, and they shouldn't expect you to change. If you want to change something about yourself, do it because it makes you happy.

Also, I think about many random things. At any given moment I could be thinking about 10+ things at once. My train of thought moves very fast, so I try to keep busy, to slow it down some.

Mostly I'm at home because I don't get a chance to get out much.

Both of my parents were lifeguards and I can't swim.

I'm a textaholic.

I have a math fetish. (I'll probably regret putting that on here, but oh well.)

You are a real person. I expect honesty, and prefer if you have a picture. Not that I'm superficial, but I like to put a face with a name and personality. Besides, I put mine out there for everyone and expect others should as well. Some intelligence is required, and humor is a bonus. Also, any gay men are welcome to message me, as I love them all, and miss being around them. Kisses to those fabulous mens!!

Please dont message me if all you want is sex. I need more stimulation than that. I really despise when guys try to IM me while naked, and think its gonna get me naked. I'm sorry, but I'm the kinda girl that would rather get freaky with someone who's ass I just kicked in an old-school nintendo game.
