About Me

I live with a roommate and my pets. My friends are the best and I'm so glad to have them!! My life has been an interesting roller coaster ride, and I'm ready for the brakes. I need to slow down for a moment and see what's around me.
I march to my own drum.
My friends ARE my family.
I have a love/hate relationship with my body.
I am a daddy's girl.
Taking pictures is one of my favorite things!
Gemini definately describes who I am.
I like karaoke!
