I LOVE THE WATER!!!! Put me near the ocean whether it's on a boat, with my snorkeling gear, with a boogie board and some great waves - heck I'll just body surf then - or on a beach chair with a good book and I'm happy. Gonna get SCUBA certified - who wants to go the the Bahamas for my certification dive???
I also sell Mary Kay - love the products and the people I work with. How many people can say that?! :)
Examples of my artwork. I tend to do pencil/charcoal drawings, but you can see here one oil painting. Have done watercolors and pen and ink. Anyone looking for illustrations for books, please let me know. I'm interested in using my drawing/painting skills again! Pics are a little fuzzy when viewed larger - sorry about that.
The beach - lounging or body surfing, gonna learn real surfing someday, skiing, my crappy convertible, beach bars (sensing a theme here), movies, novels, tennis, working out, dancing and drinks, Phillies games as the summer soundtrack, Eagles games..
Music
U2, Chris Isaak, John Eddie, Foos, Audioslave, Linkin Park, Jimmy Buffet, Robert Hazard, Breaking Benjamin, HIM, Johnny Cash, Susan Tedeschi, Jack Johnson, Etta James, Bee Gees (yes I admit it), Josh Ritter, Bruce, Monkees, Clancy Brothers, Gabriel Donohue, funk/motown, anything but rap or new country.
Movies
Raiders of the Lost Ark, Princess Bride, Caddyshack, original Star Wars, Wedding Crashers, Hitchcock stuff, Pirates of the Caribbean, dramas, comedies, action, horror. I'm one of those rare females who actually quotes movies. :)
Television
24 rocks!! Boston Legal, Desperate Housewives, Lost, Animal Precinct (I wanna see one of these cops lose it and beat the crap out of someone). Used to love Due South.
How about Magnum PI and Simon & Simon - both on Thursday nights. What else could a teenage girl ask for?
Books
Stephen King, Carl Hiaasen, Janet Evanovich, Koontz, Grisham, Anita Shreve. Fiction, history.
My recent trip to Costa Rica! Hey it was for work - forgive me for not having more pictures!
My cruise to the Eastern Caribbean on Holland America ship the Zuiderdam. Dam good time!

Thought I'd catch up with the rest of the world and get on here! Looking to make some new friends or maybe more than that. As you can see, I am single and looking, so stop by and say hi.
Not into the club scene, but I've been known to hang until 4:00 am if everyone's having fun. That being said, I do enjoy going out to hear live music or go dancing with my friends. I'm basically a laid back person but I don't need a month's notice for a last minute weekend getaway. :) Any other beach bums out there??
Great concert in Philadelphia!!
Please watch this heartbreaking video my brother made and please do all you can to stop animal abuse.
Chris Isaak - love that guy and not just cause he's easy on the eyes! I'm interested in making virtual friends here. But also real people, friends and I'm interested in guys who are looking for a relationship. I'm NOT looking to just hook up - NO swingers either! If you are NOT prepared for a real relationship (eventually), no offense but please chat up someone else. :)
I'm looking for someone who basically has their life in order and knows where they're going (or may already be there). Not looking for drama, but definitely looking for someone who knows how to have fun anywhere. Not into head games (been there, don't wanna go back), and it would be nice if a guy could actually express what he's thinking in a way that I can understand. Ideally, I'd meet someone who has some of the same interests, but will be able to show me new things like surfing, riding a motorcycle, or how to pick a really good wine (okay, I sorta know how to do that last one - sorta). Ultimately, looking for fellow beach lovers!!
What a great concert this summer in AC! I had pretty good seats too!

"More than a cocktail for hot flashes and fluctuating libido, Carla Matteo's fragrance addiction numbs the pain of her father's tragic death, wards off the sting of a severed adolescent friendship, fortifies her against the stench of employment inside her husband's waste management company, and wafts through fantasies of having a fling with hubby's paesano...
