On Gather, I'm Looking For ...: anything and everything! I'm not looking for just any one thing in particular. Whatever happens to come my way; I'll deal with as it crosses my path. Interests Favorite Music, Artists, Genres: I'll listen to almost any style of music, though there are a couple I don't particularly care for. My private library contains many different types of music...something for every mood I may be in. Favorite Books, Writers, Genres: I'm not a big reader and it's been years since I've even opened a book. I'm the type who has to be able to read it all the way through because I know I'll never go back to it, so that means anything of length I'm not even going to begin., I am my own favorite author. Favorite Movies, Actors, Genres: I have no one movie that really stands out as my all-time favorite that I have to watch over and over. There are a couple I enjoy re-watching from time to time. They have to be interesting enough to capture my attention or I lose interest. (I've been known to pay $8 admission to a theater and fall asleep during more than one film...sometimes as soon as 5 minutes into it.) I enjoy comedies. Most only make me smile. The good ones make me laugh out loud. (But then, I'm the kind of person who goes to see a comedian and sit ther straight-faced during the performance because I'm not finding them entertaining.) I also get into horror movies and rate them on how many times they scare me enough to make my nipples errect...my "Titty Hard On Scale". The first "Chuckie" movie had been my own personal #1 for years giving me 6 titty hard ons. Recently, The Grudge replaced the top spot scaring me 4 times in the first five minutes and 7 times overall. Favorite TV Shows, Actors: I have no one favor program that I must see everytime it's on and the world must stop while I'm viewing it. I like to watch a varied of things; Discovery Channel, news, court/judge shows, NASCAR races, Ghost Whisperer, Medium, crime/police programs, Idol and more. Interests and Activities: I'm simple; yet complicated! I like dining out, movies, music, community social events, fairs and festivals. I love animals (sometimes, more than humans) and like visiting zoos. I have fun at amusement parks and love roller coatsers. I enjoy relaxing sitting along the water's edge or in front of a fire, sitting on the front verranda or at a sidewalk cafe watching people go by; even just going for a walk or a drive. No matter what I do, I like to have the company of someone close to share the time with...and usually, that's my best friend., I have nothing I do on a regular basis though I've been told I need to do something constructive with my extra time. I've dabbled in hobbies in the past but never got involved with anything that captivated me and held my attention to do it the rest of my life. I did manage bands in the past for a few years. I also used to collect music and have done some writing. The closest I come now is that I have quite a few candlesticks and candle holders. Affiliations Political Affiliation: Registered Republican, but I vote for the candidate I feel will do the best job in the position. Religious Affiliation: Raised an Episcopalian. Now, God comes to MY house. Employers: Over the years, I've been somewhat of a Jack-of-all-trades and have done a wide variety of jobs: Head waiter, pizzeria/sub shop manager, general laborer, parochial elementary school phys. ed. teacher, junior/senior high school phys. ed. teacher, on-air radio personality, band management agency owner/operator, delivery service owner/operator, bartender, flower shop customer service specialist, restaurant chef's assistant, retail, telemarketer. Who knows what I'll try next. Colleges: Cayuga Community College - Auburn, NY Major: Major - Humanities and Social Sciences/Secondary Education/Physical Education Minors - Psychology and French High Schools: Waterloo, Mynderse Academy of Seneca Falls, Jefferson of Rochester Other Affiliations: I no longer activity participate in any group. In the past, I've been involved in various youth, sports and community/chartiable organizations. Now, charity begins at home. Ping Me You cannot post a blank ping.
