About Me


MySpace Layouts
    MySpace Layouts MySpace Codes MySpace Backgrounds
I'm more conservative than liberal, prefer PCs to Macs, am surprisingly decent at bowling (despite my terrible form), enjoy my job (which is a blessing), and love great music.Updates: Spring is in full swing! PT and I have been getting outside a lot lately. We've taken up beach bike-riding, tennis, and roller-blading to name a few activities. Also, we're starting a "Get-Right-In-the-'08 Fitness Challenge." If you're interested in getting together with a bunch of us for a fitness challenge this spring let me know and I'll add you to the thread! In other news... Sunday nights in FREE POOL NIGHT at Q's in Santa Monica. We're gonna try to take advantage of it, so if you have nothing to do around 8pm on Sunday nights then text me and we can all sharpen our pool skills.And finally, for anyone who has forgotten or is unsure: I still love Hall and Oates. To death. AND....I also love Sia. Ch-ch-check her out!
