About me: Well, here goes. I was my parent's original wild child. My father, in particular, believed that a child should have the freedom to explore the world as they saw it. He was conventional in a very unconventional way. School was school, but the world is your classroom. Everything interests me. My Dislikes: Rude, selfish, offensive people. Step aside, your negativity is yours, not mine. My Likes: Just about everything else. Me Personally: I have a great wicked sense of humor, love to laugh, make others laugh and tell silly jokes. I want to be remembered as the woman that always smiles, even when her heart is broken, and the one that could always brighten up your day, even if she couldn't brighten up her own. I have a serious side too, but you wouldn't really know it. I use that energy to help better the planet, mankind, the poor, needy and sick. I love meeting interesting people (even if you don't think you are), having great friends, and being there for you (I'm a Virgo, I know just when you need me). I don't mind wandering in the crowd, I just don't want to be part of one. I am unique, it is what makes me, me. I'll never judge you (people can be their own worst critics), but I will understand you. I will tell you the truth and never lie, with friends, should it be any other way. You can tell me your deepest secrets, I'll tell you mine, and I'll never blab. If you have a problem, we'll work it out together or I'll make you laugh so hard, you will forget about it. Bring me your broken heart and damaged psyche, I have a first aid kit for just that very thing. I don't mind your opinions and constructive critisms, it is what makes you, you. When we meet in person, I will look at you from the inside out. When I look into your eyes, I can see things about you, that you can't. Everybody has a shell, what interests me about you, is what is inside. The real you. I like my solitude. My friends understand that. I may disappear for days at a time, quietly writing my books, manuscripts or wandering around, meeting new people or visiting places that interest me. If there is a art museum or bookstore near by, look inside, I will probably be there. I always have interesting tales of what I saw when I was out wandering the world. As a friend, I will give everything that I have, and expect nothing back. Nothing is more precious than giving to those, that need it the most. I cannot really hate anything or anyone. It is such a strong negative emotion. There is already too much hate in this world, I'am not going to add to the bottom of the list. I love to cook. You name it, I can cook it. I love my family. They know that I am an unconventional person. While they don't always understand me, we always look to the future on life, what we can do for others and try to live in a beautiful, but sometimes violent world.
And everything I know just fades away
And where the wildflower grows it picks its space
And that's the way it is when nature plays its lovely hand
We'll understand everything
I'm just dropping by, because I thought you (and possibly your friends) might get a kick out of this:
Synopsized below is one of the 1,000 films covered in my book, Animal Movies Guide. It was released last month, and it's doing really well so far! (Details at Amazon, or my blog) If you'd like a review copy, please contact me directly and I'll hook you up.
Strays 1991, horror and suspense
“They have nine lives. We only have one.” That’s the tagline for this not-so-scary horror movie about some very bad cats living in the basement of the newly-acquired home of the Jarrett family (Timothy Busfield, Kathleen Quinlan, and twins Jessica and Heather — the latter of whom went on, ironically, to star in a naughty-type movie called Cybersex Kittens). We never do learn why these cats are so mad and murderous, but they’re good at what they do. The industrious pusses manage to cut off the phone service, open vents, and murder the family’s hapless hound.
And don't forget...

Have a delightfully zany weekend full of Seussy kinda fun!!!
