It's not whether the glass is half full or half empty, but what a good drink of water can do for body and soul.. I'm not easy to pin down to a few easy labels, but bohemian, intellectual, artistic, philosophical, musical are a place to start, plus I enjoy getting my hands dirty with manual labor, gardening, hiking outdoors. I prefer to get around on my two feet as much as possible, especially barefooted. I feel comfortable in the city or the country, but it is nice in the city how convenient so many things are. But I get angry every time I see another grassy meadow bulldozed for more stupid buildings and pavement. I fancy myself a writer, and especially enjoy writing songs, but am seeking a muse. I wear my heart on my sleeve, so most people know where they stand with me - especially the cute guys. Woof! Redheads with lots of freckles to the front of the line..
There's a song that they sing when they take to the highway
A song that they sing when they take to the sea
A song that they sing of their home in the sky
Maybe you can believe it if it helps you to sleep
But singing works just fine for me...
- James Taylor, Sweet Baby James
Who I'd like to meet: Poets, Artists, Thinkers, Dreamers.. I enjoy being around folks with a creative streak whether it is drawing or performing or music or carpentry or whatever.
New friends, people with things to say about themselves and the world. Folks who take action to make a difference to others, a positive difference that is! Folks to go places and see things with, especially who enjoy the outdoors.
Anybody who can help me learn to play my new electric bass.
Romantically? A guy who understands that having things in common and things to talk about and just a chill comfortable feeling in each others presence is more solid and real than being knocked on your ass by that feverish sickness of being "in love". I have a special weakness for dudes who can sing, especially if they have deep voices.
