Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I am seeking a life I have not yet lived. I tried a few and they were great. I'm just ready for a new one.
ABOUT ME
I am very random. I love two wheeled things. I had 15 or more bicycles. I own(ed) a really fun cafe in OKC for a while, I love art. My children come before anything. I have adopted my daughter. My son is my best friend. I love motorcycles. I like good food, wine, beer, good friends (I do not have many, but know people everywhere). I like to travel. I love Reggae music. I do not smoke. I really like all or most music. I am a good leader. I am a free spirit. I could walk away from everything I have today and start all over again and it would not bother me one bit. I like academia, too much, but dislike the Ivory Tower. I am philosophical and stubborn and possibly genius or crazy. I am single and not really interested in anything but fun times, depending.
PHILOSOPHY
I live for today, with good intentions for the future. I have never owned a watch. I am always on time, not according to anybody but me. People interest me. I am annoyed by plastic people. I like material things but have rid myself of conspicuous consumption some time ago. Don't get me wrong. I like hand crafted foods and toys. I play on my families $80,000 wake boarding boat, snow board, motorcycle o big trips. . . i other words I have fun, with a conscious.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like music and books and I do not watch much TV or many movies. I enjoy them but am usually to busy to sit down long enough to finish one. I like cultural anthropology journals and pro-con topic books on ecology, economy life, love, art, and longevity. I am starting to watch a lot of short videos on the internet. I can window shop Craigslist for hours if I have time to kill.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I adopted a 3 year old girl after being her foster parent. I was found dead on my bathroom floor, brought back to life, spent time in a coma, told I would never walk or talk again, now you can't shut me up. I rode 1200 miles in Baja Mexico with 80 other bikers and made the inside spread of every biker magazine on the magazine shelves in bookstores I used to do A&R for record labels. I fought for my sons rights for 6 years until I knew he was safe (from a drug addicted mom) while fighting for my own life. I opened a cafe against all odds and have won many awards. I keep doing crap all the time that I really enjoy and I live everyday as if it were my last. There is still so much to do.
Teach, Learn, Share
I am positive that my background, lifestyle and knowledge is a great addition to this couch community. I happily join it as a group and as a committed couple. Anyone I get a chance to stay with will not be disappointed. I do not need to be entertained but can be very entertaining. I like solitude as well as company, talking as well as quiet. I don't know what more to say. I like to travel and meet new people. I like new things and have no problem sharing what I already know and like.
