My Interests

Snowmobiling, Classic Cars, music, movies, spending time with friends and family. I enjoy skeet shooting and bird hunting (although I never have time too). I love being like my niece says "cool" Auntie Annie to all my nieces and nephews (Cajsa,Sam,Irja,Rayna, Stina, Alex and Kyle).Love all my other Nieces and nephews too.I already love being Grandma to Jake and Alaina. I find myself having withdrawals when I haven't seen them.

I'd like to meet:

Old friends. I am not here to meet new people. No offense. If I don't know you I won't add you. I am not here to be a friends whore. Just want to keep in touch with the people I already know.

Music:

I am a music junkie. I will listen to just about anything. Not too into the rap thing though. One favorite is Springsteen (Bruuuce!! He is awesome in concert).I also love Metallica, Zeppelin, Prince(also amazing in concert), The Chili Peppers, The Darkness, The Foo Fighters, Alice Cooper, Gwen Stefani, Buck Cherry, that's just to name a very few. I am currently going through a Mika stage. I love, love him! I love everything I have heard by him. I have a folky side also. I love Nanci Griffith, EmmyLou Harris, Alison Krauss. It is crazy how some of the bands I used to love when I was young, if I hear them now I think wow they suck!!! But they were a part of the music of my life and they will always have a place in it. Even if it is just for a walk down memory lane. That is if I can get through it without losing my lunch. ..

Movies:

Lord of the Rings, Gone with the Wind, My Cousin Vinny, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Pirates of the Caribbean. Julia Roberts and Johnny Depp movies. Sixteen Candles & Weird Science still crack me up. And I will always love Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Television:

I haven't been watching much of the tube lately. It seems like so much of whats on is crap. But I do like to watch anything about ancient Egypt. I am starting to get into watching anything on the Elizabethan period also. Oh and always a favorite is Cash Cab. I swear I am going to go to New York just to see if I can score the cash cab.

Books:

Gone with the Wind. I have read it so many times I can't count. I just love the Rhett & Scarlett thing. The Lord of the Rings books. I read all kinds of medical books. My husband tells me I think I am a doctor.

Heroes:

My Mom and Grandma. If somebody told me I was anything like my Mom I would consider it the highest compliment they could give. My Grandma and Grandpa were married for 73 years. Any woman who can put up with one man that long is my idol and deserves much respect. I love her tons! My Grams just passed away on Memorial Day. My sister said that she was an ordinary woman who lead an extraordinary life and I don't think I could say it any better.What an awesome lady she was. Rest in Peace Gram. Gertrude Irene Flink 1911-2008.
