About her

About me, wow that is an intimidating task. I love music, it captivates your soul and lets you see the world through an entirely different lens, it is my passion and religion. I love books, words, good conversation, history, perfume, writing, learning, observing, fireplaces, the color green, laughing, watching old movies, singing, the wind, watching the sunrise, lemon drops (the drink), Ireland, accents, intelligent men, walking barefoot (and no it's not because I am from Arkansas), the sound of rain against a window pane, old houses, small towns, thunderstorms, trees, getting to know a stranger, kissing in the rain, water in general (I can't resist it), Mimosas (the trees and the drink), stars, Romania, photography, snow, exhibitionists, high heels, musicals, and last but certainly not least, losing yourself in the moment.

I have a been fortunate enough to find an amazing man whom I love very much and hope to spend the rest of my life with.

I am always open to knew ideas and experiences. I will try just about anything once.

For clarification, even though I was born and raised in the south, I do not have a southern accent,... okay... I do have a little bit of a twang when I am upset, which isn't very often, and even then it is only very slight.

The picture of the owl is a small tattoo that I have on my right wrist. It has a lot of different meanings for me. I call him HOOT.
I have a blue magnolia on my back as well,and I finally have a picture of that one!
