I am here for Friends

About Me


Contray to popular belief with my friends I don't really like talking about myself....well...that is unless I'm in inner thought blog mode. I'm probably the worlds most accident prone person however I manage to make that look graceful *cheesey grin* Seriously though, I'm thinking in investing in a plastic safety bubble for myself. I wear many hats, wife, work-a-holic, friend, air guitar queen, hand bag and shoe obsessed freak, computer and gaming geek, sports nut, daughter, granddaughter and one day I would like to add supreme ruler of the universe to that list. Traveling the world is a passionate love of mine, I struggle to stay sitting still for too long and if I'm not juggling about 8 tasks at the same time I'm rarely satisfied. I would say the only time I'm quiet is when I'm sleeping but apparrently I still talk and sing in my sleep.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet myself at 40 to see just how things have been going. Chuck Norris (cause he's the MAN!!), The Hoff, I would say Queen Elizabeth II but I've already met her, so I'll say her grandson instead, Jon Bon Jovi (The man, The hair, the legend)
