Someone once challenged me over several bottles of wine to recite some of my favorite, or her favorite, literary quotes. I do believe that it was the poet Edward Moore who said that quoting other people's works shows a supreme lack of originality.

“If you're losing your soul and you know it, then you've still got a soul left to lose” - Charles Bukowski

I'm a slave to being fashionably on-time. I choose to leave my nose in a book. Writing poetry for me lately is slower than aging a good bottle of wine. I am a messy haired, procrastinating, silly, emotional roller coaster. Shapes in the clouds? Yeah, I see 'em.
I'm a writer, searching for her purpose, dedicated to her craft, second guessing every sentence.
I'm a lead singer in a shower band; my shampoo's on drums.
I dance to feel alive, but I hung up my dancin' shoes long ago.
Is it wrong to replay one perfect moment in your head over and over again? I sure do...
I miss Paris. I can't wait to go back to London. I miss the sunsets on my grandma's lake in Louisiana and the pasta in Venice. I am worldly, a traveler, a seeker, and an explorer...just heading out on another journey....
Who I'd like to meet: Billy Collins and John Keats
Hey Mere, it's Chris or Silvertoe. Just dropping by to say hello and see what's up. Finally took a long break from WoW. Well, if you get a sec hit me up =) later, take care
Just taking the time to say hi! Things are good here, just hectic. Between work, family and everything else I'm trying to make time to play Warhammer as well. Few of my buddies and I have been playing since release and its rather addicting simply because it's a new game. If you're still playing, you should check it out!
