It Ain't Easy Bein' Queen of the Universe.............

About Me

Hmmm..What to say about me? I'm pretty easy to get along with and I'm outgoing. I don't do drama very well and like to keep that to a dull roar. I've been married for 17 years to the best guy I could have hoped for! We have a 15 year old son. He was inducted into the Tribe of Mic-O-Say at H. Roe Bartle Scout Reservation in July of this year and will be starting work on his Eagle Scout project soon. Jesse passed his driver's license permit test on his 15th birthday (10/07/07)--WOOOOO!!!!! He's a great kid and we're very proud of all the hard work he's done!!! I live in the same town that I grew up in. Its fairly small, quiet and predictable, but its home and I like it. I have one brother who is 2 years older than me--just seems like he never got past 14 in his mind....LMAO! I believe in a lot of different things & stand strong in those beliefs. If you see something in my blogs or whatever and you don't like it..oh well--I never asked for your opinion to begin with and all I can say is "tough bounce, Baby!!!" You should create your own MySpace Layouts like me by using nUCLEArcENTURy .COM's MySpace Profile Editor !

My Interests

First & foremost I totally DIG my husband and son!! I love to spend time with friends and family. We are totally into NHRA Drag Racing. Hubby has been NHRA comp. licensed for around 7 years now running in the Super Gas class. We hold NHRA Competition License S/G 5000. This here is FORD COUNTRY, BABY!!! The photo below was reproduced for me courtesy of Kelly Pelrine, Digital RaceCraft---Thanks, Kelly!!!! Hubby (Randy) proudly served our country aboard the USS Ranger - CV-61 with VS-38 Fighting Red Griffins from 1984-1988. GO NAVY!!!!!!!!!!! We are very active with Boy Scout Troop 100, Heart of America Council - Thunderbird District. Randy received the rank of Eagle Scout in 1978 and also achieved the rank of Fire Builder in the Tribe of Mic-O-Say. Scouting has forged a special bond between Randy and Jesse. I'm very proud of my men-folk!!! This is a pic of my friend, Steven - Overseas on his first WestPac Cruise - Lantau Island off Hong Kong...pretty cool, huh?

Music:

.. .. Think you're a badass? Check this out---get a clue then get back to me after they've dropped..... Check THIS out! 1,683 guitarists attempt to break the world record for simutaneously playing "Smoke on the Water" Our son, Jesse (#478) and my brother, Ross (#717) are out there jammin'--WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Movies:

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Prozac Nation, Night of the Living Dead,anything Romero. (I LOVE zombie flick-toons--yes...even the cheese) Shaun of the Dead, Tombstone, Full Metal Jacket, The Departed, Blazing Saddles, Kentucky Fried Movie and many, many B's from the 70's. The list is endless..........

Television:

Discovery Channel, NeoGeo, Military Channel and History Channel. There's not a lot on regular television that interests me and I'm happy to share my commentary on the state of broadcast T.V. WHO is the moron that thought up "Wife Swap"? That person should be publically humiliated, beaten soundly about the head and shoulders then fired. "Desperate Housewives", "Lost", "The Bachelor" & "The Bachelorette" and that's just on ABC! There's more and even worse on other channels. For an editorial on the state of broadcast television we now go to our man in the field, Al Swearengen.........Al? "I ain't p*ssed off. I'm in f*cking wonderment. I'm waiting to be kept happy by another f*cking fairytale." Thanks, Al...and with that said...I rest my case, America.

Books:

I was fortunate to inherit my mother's collection--there's P.L. Travers, A.A. Milne, Louisa May Alcott and Rudyard Kipling just to name few. I'm a avid Stephen King fan...my favorites are "Needful Things" and "The Stand"...

Heroes:

The ones who have always taken me at face value, helped me up, brushed me off and headed me back in the right direction---Randy, Jesse, my grandparents, Daddy & Bubba---Brenda & Cheralyn. Shawn....the one who always saw into my heart when nobody else understood.......
