I am complex, winter loving, and laughter filled.

My Self-Summary

there is nothing like a good cup of strong coffee in the morning to make me happy to start the day.

i love positive people who know when to bitch about the world.

there are things in life that are so important to me that i will spurn you if you disagree with me...so don't play!

i have a jolly good time though, so you may want to check me out.

What I’m doing with my life

I'm raising three adopted sons, loving my dog, playing shuffleboard with friends, waiting for the winter and the snow to fall.

I’m really good at

snowboarding, laughing, intuition, calling bullshit on people who think they are too smart for the rest of us, scrabble.

The first things people usually notice about me

My laughter, my smile, and my energy level.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books-the bluest eye, the winter of our discontent, geek love. Most recent reads-the kite runner, youth in revolt, twilight

Movies- harold and maude, boys of baraka, whats eating gilbert grape.

Music-the thermals, the beastie boys, etta james, the jackson 5, the flaming lips, yeah yeah yeahs, just about any band on the dischord label.

Food- just about anything without meat involved. i love to eat.

The six things I could never do without

caffeine

music

snow

cool people

a good dog

food

I spend a lot of time thinking about

how to do things better, driving, being human, snowboarding, teaching, learning.

On a typical Friday night I am

playing scrabble with friends, reading a book, seeing a movie(in bed-I hate Friday night crowds at the movies and my bed is so much more comfortable), chilling, taking a nap (i love naps).

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

is that I am far more interesting in person.

You should message me if

there are things you must tell me that you just can't hold back...and hi is not one of them.
