About Me

I PASSED THE CPA EXAM!!!! I hate these things - as evidenced by the fact that I've had my profile for over a year and am just now writing something in this little box. I'm 25, single, living in Tulsa. I just bought a house and I love my job. Which is sad because most people would say my job is boring. :) I love hanging out at home with friends. I have two cats who are my babies. My house rocks and was built in 1938. It's huge (considering the fact that I'm single and don't need a lot of space just for me) and I love to show it off, so feel free to visit any time. I love to travel but haven't been anywhere that exciting in a long time (except California). California is one of my favorite states and I hope to live there one day. I have a 11 year old brother who is the love of my life. I am very close to my parents and I miss them all the time - they live two hours away - by car - and are still too far away. I love beer - I'm a Bud Light girl - and I can never drink just one, but I'm trying to cut down because I'm trying to lose weight! I love pink - can you tell? But I also like most other colors, yellow, purple, blue, green. I'm a fan of color. I'm from Texas and while I love the state I will probably never move back again. I drink a ton of water every day. I like to cook but don't have enough people to cook for so mostly I eat junk. I had a will drawn up just in case. I love to talk and once I'm comfortable in a situation - watch out. I won't shut up! I'll tell anyone just about anything. I don't believe in telling lies. I love animals. I'm a big fan of recycling and I'll cart around plastic bottles and coke cans for weeks until I can get by a recycling center. Thank goodness for curbside recycling at the new house! I only let myself have one coke a day and it has to be the real thing - I actually stopped this as part of my diet and exercise plan. Did you know that having one coke a day works out to be ~1,000 calories a week? That's a heck of a lot of calories!I could probably go on and on. Like I said - I like to talk. :)

I'd like to meet:

Fun people who make me laugh.

Music:

Just about anything. I'm not a huge fan of rap. I don't like songs that only talk about sex or are mean to other people. I love country - especially the old stuff. I'm currently in love with Sugarland, Dixie Chicks, Johnny Cash, Nickel Creek, Disptach, Blue October, Bowling for Soup.

Movies:

I love movies in general - except most stupid comedies. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon; Love Actually; 50 First Dates; Thank You for Smoking; Boys on the Side, Return to Me. There's lots more.

Television:

I'm totally a TV junkie and I watch crap. But I'm ok with that. :) It's my stress relief. CSI, Ghost Whisperer, Related (I'm so sad it got canceled!), Real World Road Rules Challenge, ER, House. My roommate got me hooked on Grey's Anatomy. I also watch What about Brian, Men in Trees, October Road and Brothers & Sisters. Like I said - I watch a lot of TV. Thank goodness for the DVR!

Books:

I've always got at least one book that I'm reading. I like murder mysteries and suspense and horror. Stephen King is one of my favorites. Song of the Seals, The Green Mile, there are others - I need to look at my bookcase.

Heroes:

My parents - they are amazing. My brother - he is constantly surprising me.
