I am an open, free-spirited, unmarried 38 year old New England Native diagnosed with Bipolar 1, rapid-cycling.  

 I am an outspoken (my mother uses the word "obnoxious" :roll:) and energetic (my mother prefers "a mile a minute") creative writer and poker player who is better at giving good advice than at taking it. I am a loyal friend who always has good intentions, even though they're not always carried out.  

I walk really fast, talk even faster and I generally go 3 or 4 days a week with no sleep at all.  I exist mainly in an elevated state of hypomania... go go go, zooma zoom zoom. If I were a superhero, my name would be Superman(ic).   I bore quickly and am easily distracted.  I suck at math, but play poker for a living. Because percentages make my brain implode, I never know when the odds are stacked against me. That sentence alone speaks volumes and is definitely a double entendre.

My dog, a pitbull named Boo is my only "child" and very best friend.  (while we're on the subject, children annoy the hell out of me - can't stand 'em.)    Obviously, the pic below is Boo.... I challenge you to try not to fall in love with her.

I believe laughter is essential in battling my mood disorder, and try to find humor in every situation. I've been decribed as witty - I think I'm just dry. Either way, when I'm around, there's always some kind of laughter.

There are, however, some things I just cannot find any humor in.  They include (but are not limited to):

1. Chained Dogs.  Just let your pet in the house, or give him to someone who will. Would you tie your CHILDREN up in the backyard? Your pet depends on you as much as the child. (truth be told; I'd rather see the kids out there)

2. People like Jennifer Lopez or Snoop Dog who support causing pain to a defenseless animal because they want to look plush in fur. "J-Lizz-O's in the hizzouse Bitches"  And she's wearing something that used to have a face.

3. Circus Slavery. Clearly, that tiger was justified in chewing off half your face.

4. Anyone who tries to fuck with my freedom of speech. Or religion. Or Swedish Fish. (yummmmm.)
