| Introduction | I am a creative type with interest in everything! I am an army brat who has lived in lots of places as a child, and continued that pattern until about 6 years ago. I am still trying to decide what to do "when I grow up..." and since I don't think I want to do the same thing forever, I've given up on the concept of finding "It." I am just going to live day by day, with the goal of establishing a healthy, well-adjusted family, and a balanced life. That's all any of us can do. I love lots of different music, and attempt to read as much as possible. I have picked up the acoustic guitar again, and am starting to cross things off my "waited too damn long to do this..." list. For example, went to the shooting range (done), obtain and/or create a little art that feeds my soul, buy a house... I like to work with polymer clay, paint, and mosaics, jewelry. I have amassed a nearly complete set of camping gear, and hope to hit the road more this year, including kayaking, etc. Visit me on my photo site: http://www.flickr.com/people/expiring_mind/ |
| Interests | Politics, travel. mosaic making, polymer clay (art of any kind), camping ...not necessarily in that order. Reading, possible writing... |
| Favorite movies | The War of the Roses (I always forget how much I love that movie until I think about "I hate the way you breathe." Secretary, The Professional, Being John Malcovich, Clerks, Dogma, Pulp Fiction, pretty much any Quentin Tarantino flick. Office Space. A Beautiful Mind. Blade Runner. Mad Max. Raising Arizona, True Stories. The Big Chill. Shawshank Redemption. Heartburn. About Last Night. The Station Agent, Heartburn, A Scanner Darkly. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (screws with your head... in such a good way!) Donnie Darko...Hearburn. |
| Favorite music | Alternative, bluegrass, rock, jazz... Loving the new Robert Plant/ Alison Krauss. I am totally impressed with Blue October (seen them live twice) I think they are the new U2. I like alternative and old style rock.... (good) 80s when I get in the mood for it. (Usually old) Billy Joel, Peter Gabriel, Annie Lennox. Beatles, Motown. Cake...Neil Young... Love Flaming Lips. My first concert was New Year's Eve. It was great--and the boys loved it! |
