I am here for Friends

About Me

"It's hard to walk in a single woman's shoes, that's why we have to buy REALLY special ones every now and then to make the walk a little easier." This is my absolute favorite line from Sex and the City...so true!!!I love wine, everything about it. In my free time, I enjoy taking wine classes and attended tasting events. I also love experimenting with make-up, my creative outlet. Scrapbooking is another hobby I started about seven years ago. Travel is a good friend of mine; if I don't spend some quality time with it, I go crazy.

You Are Most Like Carrie!

You're quirky, flirty, and every guy's perfect first date.
But can the guy in question live up to your romantic ideal?
It's tough for you to find the right match - you're more than a little picky.
Never fear... You've got a great group of friends and a great closet of clothes, no matter what!
Romantic prediction: You'll fall for someone this year...
Totally different from any guy you've dated.

You Belong in London
A little old fashioned, and a little modern.
A little traditional, and a little bit punk rock.
A unique woman like you needs a city that offers everything.
No wonder you and London will get along so well. What City Do You Belong In?

My Interests

In general, I crave a good time. I love spending the day wine tasting or spending a night at a wine class (Vintage Wine Merchants plug). Going out or hanging out with the girls. Going to bars/lounges/clubs where I can just relax while dancing to good music. I love applying make-up, if only I could make a career out of it. Traveling: Been to New York (twice; just went again December 04 for New Year's), Cancun, Italy (best 6 weeks of my life), Texas (Austin, Houston, San Antonio and good 'ol Del Rio), Chicago, Hawaii, Washington DC, and of course Las Vegas. I spent a week in Kentucky and three weeks in Michigan, but both were for work and it wasn't very interesting.
