I am here for Friends

About Me

I am a business consultant working in Raleigh, NC most of the week. I left NYC last fall and moved to Morehead City. Although I am a "big city girl", I am definitely enjoying the extra time I get to spend with David and having easy access to the beach.

What else?

DAVID'S BLOG

I had two knee surgeries not too long ago: one to reconstruct the ACL, meniscus and some other stuff; and a second surgery in November 2006 to repair some additional tears that were found. As a result, I spend a lot of time at the gym trying to keep my knee in good condition and to get back into shape since I was unable to work out for about 12 months.

I also enjoy playing video games. I am addicted to Halo 3.

I love sports.

My Interests

video games - HALO 3, literature, working out, travel, the beach, movies, music, bingo, scrapbooking, cooking, photography, bowling, darts, foosball, ping pong, soccer, concerts with Brownie, Redskins, Wizards, Caps, hanging out with my boyfriend, eating food that my boyfriend cooks

I'd like to meet:

I met him when I was 14 (and he was 13)... and he's all mine.

People to hang out with in Morehead City or Raleigh. I moved from DC/NYC last February and I don't have many friends. It would be cool to meet people who enjoy watching sports, working out or playing video games.

Music:

everything but country... Rock, Hip-Hop, the Clash, Ramones, the Specials, the Temptations, Senses Fail, A.F.I., Turbonegro, Underoath, the Queers, the Real Kids, Thrice, Electric Frankenstein, New Found Glory, Keane, Saosin, Bright Eyes, Motion City Soundtrack, Willie Nelson, Otis Redding, Sam Cooke, the Weaklings, Snoop Dogg, Classical

Movies:

The Professional, Taxi Driver, Battle Royale, Amores Perros, Y tu mamá también, Match Point, Harry Potter (series), City of God, In the Mood for Love

Television:

Lately I've been watching College Football and Pro Football, PTI, Around the Horn, Sports Center and sports events. When I have time, I like to watch the Simpsons and Family Guy.

Books:

I'm currently reading Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy and The Lingerie Handbook by Rebecca Aspan since La Petite Coquette is my favorite lingerie store.

Otherwise... anything by Hemingway, H. James, Kafka, Dostoyevsky, Chekhov, Tolstoy

The Torrents of Spring, Fathers and Sons - both by Ivan Turgenev

Harry Potter Series

Heroes:

My parents = I wouldn't be where I am today or as happy without their love and support.

My boyfriend = He's responsible for educating over 250 students (and then some - highschool marching band kids x2 and Constitution kids) and he has to remember all of their names!
