You keep runnin' that mouth and I'm gonna take you in the back and screw you

About Me

Hmmm....well...I'm honest, loyal, a little anal and fun-loving.I'm also a very sensitive person. Not, "oh my goodness you called me ugly, now I'm gonna cry", (though that would hurt my feelings). I'm more of a "I could never say anything to hurt you" kind of a person. I remember being in elementary school, and watching a film in which a guy is constantly falling, getting bonked on the head, etc. While the whole class laughed, I was stone faced, failing to see what was funny, and thinking he could get hurt. I guess that's why I became a nurse. It's a great feeling to know that you can make the slightest difference in someone's day. If they are scared, you can hold their hand, if they are in pain, you can comfort them. I truly love my job, it's a great fit for me. That being said, I'm a huge fan of horror movies!! I grew up on them, and I still eagerly await new releases of scary movies. I can easily envision myself as a 85 year old sitting in the front seat of a theater, watching "Friday the 13th part 37" with a blood-thirsty glee. I also love video games. Right now the game I play most is Grand Theft Auto, but I also enjoy the "cute" games too. Travel is also a passion. My father was in the military, and I spent most of my life living all over the world. Seeing other countries has given me a wanderlust that will never be satiated. Luckily, I will be able to blend travel and nursing. My plan is to work as a travel nurse, and travel the world. Ultimately though, I want to end up back on the east coast. I moved to MN from Virginia, and I miss the warm weather, and the ocean. However, my next destination is definitely Florida.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


Whomever made the freakin' video below...cause they are F*&^%$ awesome!!!!
.. ..

I really don't have a preference, I'm pretty open-minded, and willing to meet a lot of different people. I appreciate honesty and sincerity in people and I give back the same. I'd love to meet other nurses too. Obviously people who share my passions (horror movies, video games, travel)will mesh a little better with me. However, if you can discuss the finer points of 80's musical artists, you will definitely have my attention. Celebrity wise it would have to be: Tommy Lee (smokin' hot!!), Sean Connery, Adrien Brody (yummmmy!), Halle Berry, and Morgan Freeman. How could I forget...my favorite furry friend...ELMO!!!! He's so adorable!
I also have Neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) and I would love to meet others who have this disorder. NF 1 is quite common, but in my 34 years of living I've only met one person who has it, but I know there are many people out there. I hope that I can connect with those who do have to vent, laugh and talk about the difficulties of this disorder.

Behind the Mask

If you haven't seen this movie...run...don't walk...and go see it. It fucking rules!! The downside is it is very limited release, and only three theatres in the Twin Cities area are showing it. Behind...
