I have an insatiable appetite for new things and extraordinary people. I am impressed by artists of all kinds; singers, painters, designers, writers, architects... I love words and language, I think people who are 'multi-lingual' are geniuses. I love the beach, parks, and just about anywhere I've never been. I sing and dance anywhere (not great), but you'll envy the fun I'm having. I love the TV show Friends, sunshine and alligators. I love to cook and find local fairs or festivals, I love the idea of family and friends that I've known forever, I'm a morning person and I smile even when I do not want to. I believe in God and sometimes we disagree. I believe that compassion and kindness will always bring you good things. I know, without a sliver of a doubt, that enthusiasm is contagious!
