About me

Gender Female
Location New Orleans, LA
Introduction "To dream the impossible dream. To fight the unbeatable foe. To bear with unbearable sorrow, to run where the brave dare not go." "I'd rather be blue thinking of you. I'd rather be blue over you. Then be happy with somebody else." "Strength doesn't lie in numbers. Strength doesn't lie in wealth. Strength lies in nights of peaceful slumber. When you wake -- Wake Up!" "In some secluded rendez vous, that overlooks the avenue, with someone sharing a delightful chat of this and that and cocktails for two." "Start by admitting from cradle to tomb isn't that long away; Life is a CABARET." "The best things in life are free." "The night is young. The skies are clear. And if you want to go walking dear. It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely." "Oh, what a beautiful mornin'. Oh, what a beautiful day. I got a beautiful feelin'. Everythings goin' my way." "I love Paris in the springtime. I love Paris in the fall." "I could have danced all night. I could have danced all night. And still have begged for more." "Don't tell me not to fly- I've simply got to. If someone takes a spill it's me and not you. Who told you you're allowed to rain on my parade!" Oh.... showtunes!
