Interests
I work for a living, and I love my job.
I'm extremely into music...mostly metal, opera and classical.
Atmospheric black metal is my favorite.
I'm a seeker of knowledge...I never get tired of learning new things and never back away from a challenge.
I'm pretty friendly and laid back unless you cross me...then you cease to matter to me.
I'm not very forgiving (yeah, it's a character flaw---I'm working on it).
I really dislike liars, backstabbers schemers and gossip mongers.
I have 6 cats: Ozzy, Mr. Funnybottom, Kupo, Frankie the Pig, Rufus & Chloe.
I have 1 dog: Jack.
I have 2 rabbits: Turner & Sparrow.
I consider myself an advocate for animals. Yes, I'm one of those "animal rights people". You won't see me at a protest or throwing paint on someone's fur coat, however. I think there are more subtle and far more effective methods to show support for animal rights.
I probably like animals more than you. Haha!!
I respect others beliefs and tastes...just don't try to change mine.
I don't change for anyone.
If you want to know anything else, just ask!
