Life is not a journey to the grave with intentions of arriving safely in a pretty well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out...with ice-cream dripping all over and loudly proclaiming ... WOW! What a ride!

I try to live by the quote above. I am highly educated, perceptive, affectionate, energetic, and playful. I like to think of myself as a unique out-of-box thinker. I don't let myself bother over what others think of me...
