Favorite LEGO toys/themes: CASTLE! CASTLE!!!!

My fascination with LEGO began... When I was about 8 years old. I THINK my first set was 6653-Highway Maintenance Truck. I was FASCINATED with the smaller pieces, like the steering wheel and the street signs. Ever since then it's grown and grown.

I once built... A boat about three and a half feet long. It was huge! I had a complete lower deck with galley, sitting rooms, dining room, even a piano. I spent so much time (and bricks) on the lower deck that my upper decks were NEVER quite as good....

Someday I will build... A gigantic castle. I've been amassing castle special pieces now for a few months (hardcore amassing) and am almost ready to begin.

LEGO is great because... Of the diverse and creative ways you can put them all together to create just about ANYTHING!

LEGO fans are great because... They're creative and know how to have a GOOD time!


My favorite Non-LEGO Toys: Used to be Transformers...

My favorite Hobbies & Interests: Wow how they change.... Now mostly gaming (computer and console) and getting back into reading...

My favorite Foods: Italian! YAY!

My favorite Movies & TV: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Charmed, John Doe

My favorite Artists: MC Escher, Melissa Benson, Doug Shuler, Brom, my friend Parris....

My favorite Music: Just about anything (including rap!)

My favorite Pets & Animals: Tobie, my child. He's an eleven year old Tuxedo cat. Thinks he's six months old....


Words which best describe me: Fun loving!


I love it when... I push myself to try something new and different, and find out I'm good at it.

I hate it when... I sit around and let apathy guide my life. I feel like my mind and body stagnate at an exponential rate when I start letting myself get lazy.

I can't seem to get enough... LEARNING! Now that I've graduated with my BS, I'm ready to go back to school and learn the stuff I WANT to know.

I always seem to have enough... Things to do, places to go, and people to see. But still find time to do more things, see more people and go more places.

I hope I always... Keep in touch with people, and strive to let them know how important they are to me.

I could never... Intentionally hurt someone I truly loved.

I hope I never... Forget how to have a good time and share those good times with friends.

I wish I hadn't... Gone through a Lego "DIM" age.


In my craziest moments... I go goofy and make snap decisions that actually turn out to be good ideas. Well.... For a little while any.... Until the cops show up.


More & Less:
  • more Openness to new experiences and learning new ways of living., less Ignorance, hatred, and bitter feelings.
  • more Time spent on the little things., less Time spent worrying about the big things.
  • more Honesty and support., less Ingratitude and lack of social grace.

Rules I try to live by:
  1. Don't frown, you never know who is falling in love with your smile.
  2. Be true to yourself.
  3. Tell people what you REALLY think.
