This Is Me.....

Haven't done one of these in a while so here's a snapshot - and an actual snapshot (taken 10mins ago) of me.....

I'm 41...

I'm Australian...

I live in Brisbane - the state capital of Queensland AKA The South Of Down Under ( even though we are the North Eastern State ) **insert banjo music here**...

I am a New Jew... Conversion to Judaism began in 1999 - it's a life long process.  I live a Jewish life (but non-kosher) and have a Jewish Theology.  I am a person of deep faith - respectful of all others that aren't extremist....

I love Wonder Woman - TOTES the 2nd biggest fan of ol' Tin Tits - next to Viktor over at "Maybe It's Just Me" (link in sidebar)...

I trained to be a professional ballet dancer from age 18 - 26.  I stopped due to injuries.  And yes, I was good....

I compose symphonic music as a hobby.  The Queensland Conservatorium of Music turned me down.  At 17 it was the hardest thing to hear and broke my heart....

 I love porn.  It doesn't mean I'm a bad person.  And those involved in Porn aren't bad people either...

I don't like judgemental people...bigotry of any sort is not respectful....No holy book tells you to hate someone else and if it does... it is NOT a holy book.  G-d hates no one... He/She told me so...

I like manners and civility.... Please, thank you, excuse me, how are you etc should NEVER be optional...

I haven't always been fat.  But it has completely changed my outlook on how I used to treat ppl who are, and how I live my life currently...

I love men of color - African American, Latino, Arab etc...

My favourite colour is blue...

My fave Actor is Morgan Freeman for talent...... Dwayne Johnson for looks....

My fave actress is Glenn Close... Alison Janney is a close second...

My fave film of all time is "Copycat" starring Sigourney Weaver and Holly Hunter...

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Sir David Attenborough.... I have tickets to see his Planet Earth speaking tour in June - WOO HOO !!!!!......

I live with Clinical Depression and Chronic Brittle Asthma.  I am on a total of 7 medications all up.  They keep me alive and my mental health managed.  My life could be SO much worse... There are so many more out there who have it so much worse than I do... I am thankful for the health I have...

I am thankful for my small but wonderful circle of friends....

My blog is an outlet for ME, my thoughts and my interests (namely hot men).  It is not a popularity contest or quest for attention ( although I am honest enough to admit I wouldn't mind a LITTLE bit of both lol )...

I was born clinically dead and spent the first 18months of my life in a home for sick children....

I am currently trying........ SO TRYING.... to finish a novel about genetic mutants set in Australia...

I have a broad taste in music.  Linkin Park, Streisand, Bach, Mozart, Handel, Evanescence, Kylie, Dolly Parton, Metallica, Josh Groban are just some of them...

I can't sing a note but LOVE to screech along to music lol ...

I am a top but lately have been having SHOCKING urges to bottom...

I do not believe that casual sex is skanky...  I believe having sex without the considerations of respect and responsibility is skanky...

My maternal Grandfather is American and fought in WWII in the Pacific.  He was awarded the Silver Cross for single-handedly defending his unit against an entrenched Japanese gun position..... He left us in 1977 due to lung cancer.  I wish I could have met him.  I currently am in possession of his pocket watch that he had during his time in the Army...

The United States of America is my 2nd home and I hope to return there soon...

My Ima (mother) is a saint and I will love and take care of her for the rest of her life...

I think I'm funny - but often fall flat LOL...

I have been told I can come across as a needy and over-the-top.... my emotions are somewhat more intense due to my Depression  .... I can be a little fulsome in praise.... but it's genuine and not sycophantic....

I have run out of stuff now so if you would like to know more, please ask and I'll do a second part post.

Shabbat Shalom all and many blessings to you all....

did you see the film "margaret"?

allison janney gave a performance as a dying woman that blew me away. the film was filled with excellent & thought provoking performances as well as being wonderfully constructed.
