I'm shy, and can be quiet, but I do know what I like. I am very open to suggestions...very...and will let you know when and if I am not comfortable with something. I like to explore different aspects of myself with people who are honestly interested in the exploration and not just in it to make themselves feel like they have power {shrugs} I aim to please but you can be sure I talk back

random disclaimer...I am not a fan of sharing pictures if we just chat once or even a few times...I do not Skype and please please please don't think you can talk me into it if I have already told you I would rather not...i am not comfortable with it...respect the boundaries...that's all I can ask...among other things...

Interests
I like books and baking...coffee, tea, desserts, mini adventures to anywhere....getting my hands dirty and breaking a sweat as something is created...laughing and really good/interesting/thought provoking conversations.

Favorite Books
Asking for my favorite book is akin to asking a parent who their favorite child is...we all know they have one, but you just don't want to say it out loud...and I although the amount of books that I have read and that I own is more than I care to admit at times, the ones that I re-read are only a handful and I refuse to choose from among them

Favorite Authors
Stephen King, Tami Hoag, Gregory Maguire, Patricia Briggs, Janet Evanovich, Jeanine Frost, Laurel K Hamilton, Charlain Harris and whatever other random author happens to catch my interest as I'm browsing the book racks

Favorite Movies
Spy game, 10 things I hate about you, practical magic, labyrinth, hope floats, the expendables, die hard (first 3) lethal weapon, the patriot, 7 brides for 7 brothers, next stop wonderland, my cousin vinny, the replacements, adventures in babysitting, gone in 60 seconds, face off, love actually, about a boy, roman holiday, on the town, love and sex, dear Frankie, under the same moon, the court jester....I can't remember the names of the other ones I like

Favorite TV Shows

Favorite Music
I have a rather eclectic taste...as long as it has a good beat and smooth rhythm I will enjoy it...I tend to stay away from the extremes of any genre.
