things i like





1. Animals. what is that my friend has on her facebook page... "loving animals is a substitute activity". anyway, i love animals. my favorite mammal is the nine-banded armadillo. my favorite animal is the great white shark. i like puppies and kittens as well as reptiles and amphibians. marine invertibrate are my jam, especially cephalpods. sea birds are the shit. i know the names of every dog that come to where i work. i will go out of my way to pet a dog.

2. The beach. i throughly enjoy the beach. it is my favorite place to be at any time of year. i would love to have a beach house one day. the best part of the beach is the shore, because it feels like the world is coming out and meeting you. for the longest time i couldn't handle the feeling of wet sand all over my body but i got over that. every july my mother and i take a week vacation and go down to the shore MD or DE. last year we had two additions: Sheba and my grandmother, who is affectionately called Tete. Sheba is a this little white puff of a dog. it was her first time at the beach, she loved it except the whole water thing. she looked like a little white sausage in the sand. god i love that dog. my grandma is pretty cool too, crazy but cool. which leads to my next thing i like...

3. my family. i love my family, even if we are all a bit nutso.

4.shoes. i love shoes. i was recently asked how many i owned and the visual number for now is about 30. but i know that is without counting my summer shoes. i feel dirty about it...sometimes. what's when i put on my heels and everything is ok.

5. i am heavy into perfume. don't get me wrong, i don't go overboard on wearing it. less is more in this case. i just believe that putting on a perfume is like putting on a mood. i have perfumes for the day and the night, they can never be worn out of context.

6. men. i like men, no i love men. as much as ya'll might think i am a huge lez, i'm not. I LOVE MEN. god sakes they can be so sexy. the angular faces, facial hair, low hips, the strength, their high little asses, broad chests and shoulders. i could go on and on and on. but dudes can be mad fucked up to chicks though, so it's a catch22.

7. sports. i like sports a lot, particularly full contact sports (hockey, lacrosse, American football). it's funny seeing that i am a 5'4" and not really atheletically inclined. i used to watch NBA ball when i was younger but became disillusioned by all the traveling and illegitmate fouls. now i don't even have a television and it's flipping the start of MarchMadness, i am dying to see some great NCAA games. GO BIG RED. the Superbowl this year had me on the edge of my seat, i was hysterical when the Giants won. but my favourite sporting event comes every four years and i live and breathe that shit. i'm talking about the World Cup. i can not freaking wait for the next one, i was glued to the set that summer. i think my love of sports is directly related to my love of men. i was told recently that i would be called a "jersey chaser". which is accurate except that i won't chase anything unless out of anger or hunger. my two top men right now are both on sports teams the Saints and the Galaxy. they are modern day adonis'.

8. other peoples babies. i am totally into babies as long as they do not come home with me or have 1/2 my DNA. my main baby for the last year or so has been Semai. just to let you all know he has four teeth and has started walking! Lincolnmonster is up there too, seeing him on Mark's shoulders and then doing his little plane thing were out of control cute.

9. cars. i have loved cars since i was little. one time my dad took my to the Javits Center to the annul car show. it was like 1994 and i was thrilled to bits. that is when i fell in love with the automotive. i could and can still kinda identify cars by the frame and headlights. a commerical for the Ford Probe sticks in my head. these little boys are having a sleepover and one is telling the other what kind of car was on the street based on the sound of the engine. then the Ford Probe comes ambling down the road and the first boys is like oh that's a Ford Probe and then the other boy is like yeah it is, but what color is it? i love that commercial, i wanted to be just like them. the Audi TDI Le Man is so sexy it hurts. but my favorite car company is Alfa Romeo, their 8C Spider is fly beyond belief.

10. jewelry. i want ice, but none of that blood diamond shit. i want canadian ice.
