Introduction:
The phrase that best describes me is: "I may be crazy; But it just may be a lunatic youre looking for..."

I AM NOT LOOKING FOR ANYTHING MORE THAN FRIENDS AND MAYBE EVEN RIDING PARTNERS. I AM IN LOVE WITH A VERY SPECIAL MAN...HE ACCEPTS ME FOR ME. HE SAYS HE LOVES MY UNPREDICTABILITY, MY FREE SPIRIT, AND THE FIREY REDHEAD THAT I AM.


A TRUE LOVE is like a four leaf clover, HARD TO FIND and LUCKY TO HAVE. I have found my true love, his name is Jack (actually his name is John, but he goes by Jack) - I have discovere that the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow is an Irishman's heart.


Now just cause I have my Jack doesn't mean I can't be friends. Him and I have friends of both genders. We are comfortable with us and who we are as people.

On September 5, we tied the knot. What is funny is we already had the same last name, no going through all of that red tape....He doesn't ride, but is pleased and supportive of me as I ride with the Patriot Guard Riders. We both are proud members of the Connecticut Patriot Guard Riders....he rides on four wheels and I ride on two.


The music in the background of this video was written and sang by a fellow Connecticut Patriot Guard Rider.

Photobucket I AM NOT A FRIEND COLLECTOR, IF YOU ARE A FRIEND COLLECTOR, THINK TWICE BEFORE YOU SEND ME A FRIEND REQUEST. PLEASE TALK TO ME, LET'S SEE WHAT WE HAVE IN COMMON IN A MESSAGE, I ALWAYS DO THE SAME TO ANYONE MAKE A FRIENDSHIP REQUEST. IF I GET A FRIEND REQUEST AND NO MESSAGE ACCOMPANIES THE REQUEST, I WILL MOST LIKELY DENY YOUR REQUEST. YOU CAN SAVE YOURSELF A DENIAL BY JUST TALKING TO ME.


"Once in his life, every man is entitled to fall madly in love with a gorgeous redhead." Lucille Ball


Alittle about me:
I have never quite "fit"...I am that odd person out. I am that square peg who will never fit in that round hole. I don't your approval, nor anyone else's. The only person that I can be a disappointment to is myself. I won't preach to you, so don't bother trying to preach to me, I don't want to hear it.

I am in this world, but not actually a part of it... To paraphrase Henry David Thoreau "If a (wo)man does not keep pace with his/her companions, perhaps it is because he/she hears a different drummer. Let him/her step to the music which he/she hears, however measured or far away." I have given up staying out of trouble, it is like a magnet for me. In other words, there is no reason to lead me to temptation - I can find it myself...I always do.


Accept ME or stay out of my way. I dance to the beat of my own drum, I don’t know how to do anything else. I go through life my way, your limits and rules don’t mean a thing to me. Why do you try to stop my dance? If you don’t like it, stay out of my way. I am independant, I am unpredictable. I am a freespirit. This is all part of me.


I have never met a stranger. I talk to everyone - that is just who I am. To paraphrase Will Rogers, "I never met a man OR woman I didn't like." I have been accused of being too friendly. I say, "You can NEVER be too friendly. Being friendly is part of being human. Through all this bullshit - I am human. In being human I am not perfect - that being said, accept me for who I am and I will do the same to you in return.


I have made a committment to myself that I am going to try myself to follow the premise my grandmother taught me, "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all." I know there are games being played behind the scenes. A very good friend of mine has helped me learn that big part of being a biker is being free. I cannot control what anyone else does but I can control how I react and conduct myself. If I let the actions of others control what I do then I are giving them power over my freedom. A very good friend has helped me see that the real essence of a bikers is freedom. A biker does what they want to do and doesn't worry what anyone else thinks they should. That being said, I am who I am....take it or leave it. I just won't be a party to the negative mud slinging. Life is far to short for that stuff.


I won't tell you who you can and cannot befriend. I expect the same from my friends. I won't chose sides, don't ask me. I am not one to judge anyone, I live my life not to judge, lest I be judged by anyone. I do not have have the right to pass judgement on anyone. I have realized that I am going to do what I want and not worry what anyone else thinks I should. I am who I am, take it or leave it.


I have a down home country personality, but not afraid of the big city. I am four season woman who enjoys the quiet invigorating newly fallen snow, the crispness of a Spring air, the warm sunset of a summer evening, and the beauty of the Autumn nature. I see the beauty even in the smallest thing and appreciate the challenge each day brings.


Are you Naughty or nice
Your Result: your Naughty! wild thing!
 

You were born to be bad. Naughty by nature, you've tried everything at least once and aren't afraid to get your hands - or the rest of you - dirty when opportunity knocks. Whether that means plotting for advancement at work or toying with somebody's affections, you're willing to break the rules. As long as you're having a laugh and getting ahead, anything goes. And it is fun to defy convention every once in a while, but you're walking a bit of a tightrope. Every so often, try listening to that little angel on your shoulder who keeps saying "no!" - it's okay to be nice sometimes. In the meantime, keep being bad and enjoy yourself. Just don't throw caution entirely to the wind.


Your Nice! all sugar, no spice!

"Today started out like any other day but you rode to the doctor to get test results and he/she told you that you had less than a year to live what would be the one thing you would want to accomplish? The one goal you would want to reach? This can and does happen to people everyday. What would you do?
and my answer:
I would quit my job, pack up my shit and travel "MY* country so that I lay on my death bed, I can say I saw the land of the best damn country of the world - MY COUNTRY!"

"A veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve - is someone who, at one point in his or her life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of; up to and including my life. That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand that."

'A Veteran's Reward'
On this smoky Chesapeake night,
The music was fine, Ms. Flo a delight,
Children and grownups danced with glee,
Discoveries and memories set them free.
I thought of many distant days
When I was somewhere far away,
Keeping the watch, prepared to die
Never quite sure if they'd know why
When children read their history books;
They'd only see how young I looked.
Many came back, but some did not,
Felled in the fields on which they fought.
I came back unto this time
At peace among dear friends of mine
I took it all in, and now I know:
I gave for freedom to keep US so...

Why we ride.

ARE YOU A PATRIOT GUARD RIDER?
by Groundhogpmc

"Are you a Patriot Guard Rider?"
I heard the man say,
As I just finished stowing
Some items away.

"Yes I am", I replied
And started to raise my kickstand.
Then he said, "I just wanted
To shake your hand."

Then he grabbed me and hugged me
And held me real tight.
This man I'd just met,
This very night.

I then saw the tears
Filling up his eyes.
I didn't need to ask,
I just knew the reason why.

And suddenly my own tears
I couldn't hold back,
As he told me his son
Had been killed in Iraq .

He said he just wanted to thank me
For being by his side
Then he turned and walked away
And that's why "We Ride".



Finally...after years and years of disrespect...
"Gunny" R. Lee Ermey said it best:
"Everybody respects the Vietnam Veterans of America."
(Nothing like years late and a few million dollars short).

"Compromise, hell! That's what has happened to us all down the line — and that's the very cause of our woes. If freedom is right and tyranny is wrong, why should those who believe in freedom treat it as if it were a roll of bologna to be bartered a slice at a time?" — Sentator Jesse Helms

I have faced my mortality. When a surgeon holds your heart in his hands and you are laying there on the table on a heart bypass machine, it hits you. It hits you that all the bullshit that people and society tries to dish out to you is merely that BULLSHIT! I do not have time for BULLSHIT. It is a simple waste of time, energy, and most often money. So, either you deal with me straight up and forthright OR you can just move on. I conduct myself in the manner with all of the people I encounter, meet, befriend, and have a relationship. I am who I am - nothing more, nothing less. I accept you for who you are and damn well expect you to accept me for who I am. If that isn't in your character and you can't do that...move on, I will be just fine without you. Life is just too short the BULLSHIT!

I am a 5'1" full-figured woman - I describe my body/figure as a cross between Mae West, Queen Latifah, Dolly Parton, and Camyrn Manheim.

If you send me a friendship request, please send me a message, tell me a little about you. I do the same to anyone I request friendship. I do not like "friend collectors."

"Life is not so short but that there is always time enough for courtesy." — Ralph Waldo Emerson. I do not gossip or participate in drama. I treat people how I wish to be treated.

My favorite poem that describes me:

Phenomenal Woman by Maya Angelou

Pretty Women wonder where my secret lies
I'm not cute or built to suit a model's fashion size
But when I start to tell them
They think I'm telling lies.
I say
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips
The stride of my steps
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally
Phenomenal woman
That's me.

I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please
And to a man
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees
Then they swarm around me
A hive of honey bees.
I say
It's the fire in my eyes
And the flash of my teeth
The swing of my waist
And the Joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally
Phenomenal woman
That's me.

Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can't see.
I say
It's in the arch of my back
The sun of my smile
The ride of my breasts
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally
Phenomenal woman
That's me.

Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say It's in the click of my heels
The bend of my hair
The palm of my hand
The need for my care.
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally
Phenomenal woman
That's me.

My OZ - named for the color of Dorothy's shoes in the Wizard of OZ. My OZ is a MALE! His license plate frame says - [My Ride: "HE" is the Great and Powerful OZ!] As with any male, I have a love/hate relationship with him. On good days when he behaves, his name is OZ. There are days he tries to misbehave - on those days, his name is S.O.B. If you want to know how I know his gender - ask me.
