All work and no play makes Mel a dull girl!

About Me

I am a newlywed of 2 months. I just moved to Texas. My husband joined the Army after we had been dating for a year and a half. I am really bored at the moment because we only have one car and I don't have a job yet, so I am going stir crazy!!

My Interests

I recently got my Paramedic and have been an EMT/FF for several years. I am also in rock climbing, hiking, rollerblading, and obviously, from anyone who knows my email address, softball. I can play the flute, the piccolo (if I hear another "band camp" joke I swear!!), I plunk around on the piano, and with enough pratice can play songs. I dabble at painting, poetry, and children's stories. I actually have had a poem published. I draw a little, mostly Precious Moments and Pooh Bear, and that's about where my artistic talent ends.

I'd like to meet:

I have met so many wonderful people starting with these:

Music:

Just about anything. My musical collection varies so much. I have a little of everything. My main interest is country, since I am originally a country girl. The only music I don't really listen to a whole lot of is rap. I do have Kanye West and a little of Snoop, but not a whole lot in that area.

Movies:

I love action and comedy movies. My faves would have to be most of the Monty Python movies, Ladder 49, Backdraft, the Miss Congeniality duo, The Princess Bride, and the Tomb Raider duo.

Television:

House, CSI, MacGyer, Rescue Me, Third Watch, ER. They all kick butt!

Books:

My favorite series (every one of the books just sucks you in!) is by Dee Henderson. It is the O'Malley series. I highly recommend these to anyone who likes to read. It starts with a book called "Danger in the Shadows." It is the prequel to the series. It is very good.

Heroes:

Definitely my parents (cliche isn't it?). They have worked so hard to accomplish what they have and to be where they are, and yet took the time to make sure we had more than enough growing up. They work long hours and both are under constant stress. I could not do either job AND raise three kids. Couldn't do it.Your results:

So new at this.  How do you change your background and stuff anyway?  I've only been at this for like a half an hour so I guess I'll figure it out.  Everyone's been telling me I should ...
