"Joyous love seemed to me, the while he held my heart within his hands, and in his arms my lady lay asleep wrapped in a veil. He woke her then, and trembling and obedient she ate that burning heart out of his hand; weeping I saw him then depart from me."
"Dr. Fell, do you think that a man could become so obsessed with a woman, from a single encounter?"
"Could he daily feel a stab of hunger for her and find nourishment in the very sight of her? I think so. But could she see through the bars of his plight and ache for him?"
Ancient history, tattoos, world mythology, various world customs, traveling, animals, classic movies from the 30s and 40s to the early 50s, Egypt, art, music, acting, playing Poker, Rummy, Dominos, and Bingo (I really am an old lady at heart), metaphysics, poetry, ghosts, opera, concerts, psychology, vampires, motorcycles, New Orleans, the Goddesses and Sirens of the silver screen (Marilyn Monroe, Sophia Loren, Joan Crawford, Hedy Lamarr, Lana Turner, Norma Shearer, Maureen O'Hara, Myrna Loy, Elizabeth Taylor, Katherine Hepburn, Jayne Mansfield, Lauren Bacall, Barbara Stanwyck, and others), karaoke, the ocean, the unseen powers of the human mind, photography and modeling, yoga, bellydance, Polynesian dancing, playing some old-school Toejam and Earl, thunderstorms, conventions, and working out.

I'm a half Samoan/half Italian actress, writer, creative consultant and web editor for WXW, and many, many other things. I always have SOMETHING in the works. Go to my OTHER MySpace (www.myspace.com/actresswritervale) to learn about all that fun stuff.
My two dogs completely own my heart. I have a chihuahua named Madison and a pit bull named Siva.
It both infuriates me and breaks my heart that pit bulls have such a terrible reputation. They are the MOST loyal, loving, sweet dogs you could ever imagine. It's irresponsible people who make them into the monsters portrayed on the news. It's not the dogs' fault. I make it a personal crusade to tell the world how special and great pit bulls are.
My family IS the wrestling business. We eat, sleep, and breathe it 24/7. My dad, uncle, tons of cousins and all my brothers are professional wrestlers. My dad and uncle, "The Wild Samoans", were inducted into the 2007 WWE Hall of Fame, which was a huge, very well-deserved honor.
***PLEASE don't ask me personal questions about the wrestlers or their private lives. I am not some wealth of information, and even if I was, I wouldn't share it with the world. They need their privacy just as much as you do.***
I am a combination of high class, glamorous, glam-rock, 80s metalhead, goofy, intellectual, highly eccentric, very down to earth, fun, charming, outgoing, confident, hypnotic, and very broad-minded. In other words, there aren't many people like me floating around this world!
I frequently credit my parents for raising me "old school" and not letting me get away with anything when I was growing up. They've produced a VERY, very strong-minded and respectable daughter. When I see other people my age acting the way they do, with no respect for themselves or anyone else, I always thank my parents for being hard on me...
I miss you Brandy! 1991-2006. Fifteen years is an amazing life for a rottweiler, and she was an amazing dog.

Well it's 2 am, it's dark and raining, and guess who was just walking around the parking lot all in black? lol I love dark rainy nights, there's something very sadistically romantic about them.
Saw V is a few weeks away, and from what I've been reading, alot of questions will be answered. Saw 6 will be out next year. It's very rare that a series keeps getting better....
Have a great weekend! Paint the sun out of the sky!
