I am here for Friends

About Me

How do I describe myself? I am a hard person to describe. I am a little shy around people I do not know, but with friends I am very outgoing and very relaxed. I love my family and spending time with them. I am Irish-German descent. My Great-Great-great Grandfather/ grandmother immigrated from Ireland in late 1800's. There are many things that make me impatient. I can't stand ignorance or stupidity and they make me angry to deal with it. I do everything fast. I drive fast, eat fast, and walk fast.

My Interests

Cooking and baking. Especially Bread. I love to experiment with my bread machine and making some unique breads. I love to read, take nature hikes and bike riding.

Music:

I like several genre of music. But the ones I enjoy the most seems to be the older music (shows my age I guess) Music from the 70's especially. I like some country music (limited time). Most alternatives I really do not enjoy although I can listen to it.

Movies:

My all time favorite movie (actually 2 movies) is Before Sunrise and Before Sunset. They were the best movies I ever saw. I was introduced to them by my son when he came home last Christmas. I was so surprised that I enjoyed a movie he liked. I don't get to see many movies with a 7 year old I am limited to grown up movies time. But I like romantic movies that have great plots. I don't have time to watch a half assed movie so if it doesn't grab me usually I won't finish. The Lord of the Rings Trilogy really grabbed me too. That again is because my son got me to watch them. Each one was great in their own right. "The Notebook" is another movie that is a classic for me. I have watched so many times and I don't usually watch a movie more than 1 time.

Television:

I admit it I am a Grey's Atatomy watcher. I use to watch it all the time,although this year it seems with it moving to Thurs I don't have the time. Also, I got hooked on Dancing with Stars this year. Food Network though is my go too. If I am bored I usally can find a great show on there to watch. Also A&E and History channel are great to watch too.
