I love music, movies, musicals, theater, concerts, crafts, reading, nature, the mountains and the beach. I enjoy writing (check out my AOL blog), and being creative. I have been known to create scrapbooks, try out new recipes, write poetry and sing karaoke stone cold sober. I'm hooked on Soduko, logic puzzles and The Office. I enjoy travel whether it is a day trip or cross-country. I've only been out of the country twice but I would love to have a chance to see more of the world.

About me: I'm a DWF living in the DFW area. Two grown kids and a brand new granddaughter! Check out her pictures! I got a MySpace account so I could see the pictures my son was posting of his adventures in Colorado. I promised him if he would add me as a friend I would try not to embarrass him. So far, so good.
I am always willing to try new things and this is the latest.
Who I'd like to meet: Meryl Streep, George Clooney, Diane Lane, John Travolta (I don't care what you say about him!), anyone from The Office, Paula Poundstone, Barry Manilow, Bette Midler, Trace Atkins, Il Divo
