About Me

Let's see... here's the rundown. I'm a girlie girl who's not afraid to get a little dirt under her nails. Originally from the South (Roll Tide!), but moved to California to pursue my dream. (totally cliche, but true) My fam is the most important thing to me and I'm very close to them (even though they can drive me crazy). I go back to bama to visit them all the time and to go to a few football games. I LOVE birthday cake. The white kind with the sugary crisco icing. I'm choosy about who I hang out with, but I don't think that's a bad thing. You know, that whole quality not quantity thing!Here's me. Doin what I do.

My Interests

music (live and on my iPod), giving inanimate objects genders, the beach, travel, movies, sporting events (especially baseball and football), coffee or drinks with friends (i like the vodka), laughing til it hurts, reading, crosswords (especially on sundays), sudoku, photography, dinner parties, board games, good food - especially good steak (i'm quite the carnivore), (and i really like to use parentheses)

I'd like to meet:

People who are in to good conversation, charming, respectful, have good manners, have a positive outlook most of the time, and don't take themselves too seriously. Ooh, and if you make me laugh, you're in for life!!

Music:

mainly rock (classic and indie), country, pop, 80s, rap... pretty much anything but that techno house nonsense. i'm in to U2, bob marley, jimmy buffet, butch walker, ani difranco, dave matthews, james taylor, goo goo dolls, the fray, david allen coe, johnny cash, bon jovi, guns n roses, journey, alicia keys, sarah mclachlan, the killers, keane, the ruse, glacier hiking, ringside, nico stai, snow patrol, lily allen, annie lennox, st. america, feist

Movies:

finding neverland, the sting, shawshank redemption, elf, muppet christmas carol, ellen degeneres' here and now (does that count as a movie? i don't care... i love it!), 13 going on 30, knotting hill, princess bride, monty python search for the holy grail, finding nemo, sixth sense, return to me, troop beverly hills, anchorman, pretty much any romantic comedy, but i also enjoy a good action or drama too though! not really in to horror films unless they have a good plot - i'm a scaredy cat

Television:

brothers and sisters, grey's anatomy, ugly betty, dirty sexy money, samantha who?

Books:

book of the moment: eat, pray, lovetrue faves: all creatures great and small, the four agreements, the mastery of love, a separate peace, p.s. i love you, rammer jammer yellow hammer, all the harry potter books, water for elephants, the other boleyn girl

Heroes:
