About Me

Myspace Layouts by Pimp-My-Profile.com

I'm the upbeat optimistic one...When life hands me a lemon, I like to make a gin and 7 and squeeze the lemon into it..Basically I can always find some positive twist to just about anything...I love trying new adventures, and meeting new people. I grew up in LAKE PLACID...but whoever knows me, is quite aware of that by now. It was exactly what you think of a small town, where everybody knows everything about everyone, or at least they think they do....It was a great place to grow up, and it's made me who I am today...But living in the Capital District has been awesome too...I can be back to LP within 2 hours, and jump on a plane in a matter of minutes to be anywhere in the world.... I went to Plattsburgh State and got a Bachelor's Degree in Sociology with a minor in Criminal Justice. I started towards North Carolina, took a pit stop in Albany...and 5 years later I'm still here!! I ended up sticking around, got a job with a research foundation where I worked for 2 1/2 years, until the grant funded project ended..oh well....I temped a bit, then ended up going to work in Auto Insurance... I ended up getting a lead on a position, from a friend... And who woulda guessed..I love it!I get paid to negotiate money from other companies all day...Does it really get better than that? Sure people yell, but who can blame them....I'd be annoyed if I got into a car accident and had to shell out a bunch of money when it wasn't my fault...haha..I'd get annoyed even if it was my fault...Life has been pretty good so far...I met a great guy almost 2 years ago,Mike..and things couldn't be better! I'm living in Niskayuna with Mike, two cats, Ty and Bonsai and my dog Sparky...it's the animal kingdom!I'm looking to connect with lots of old friends and stay in touch with my current friends :)

My Interests

Anything outdoors, new or exciting. You name it, and I'll probably give it a try, or may have already...from kayaking to banjo playing...white water rafting or running 5K's...Life's too short to not give most things a chance.Summertime brings my new found passion of Softball..You'll find me out on the field yelling like crazy, or sliding into a base somewhere :) Once summer softball ends, I'll be right there leading the team into the icy cold air to play Fall Ball...sounds like too much fun right?!?!? HAHA...just remind me how fun it is when we're still playing in november..ugh! I'm always up for a new adventure. Some things I hope to accomplish in the future include learning how to whitewater kayak, some parasailing perhaps, who knows what life will bring... I also LOVE to travel...I can't get enough of it...I try to go on a new adventure any chance I get.

I'd like to meet:

I'd love to re-connect with everybody from highschool, just to see how much we've all changed and experienced since graduating 'years and years ago'.

Music:

Anybody who knows me is probably dying to see what I will write in this section...I've been known to own such classics as Ice-T, Flinstones Soundtrack, and the opening song for Cops...you know it.."Bad Boys Bad Boys...whatcha ya gonna do..." haha...but times have changed...generally I listen to most anything, but prefer more easy listening...Trey Anastasio, Blue Grass music, that's not to say I don't have my collections of Rap and hip hop, I even own country..I have an eclectic mix :)u

Movies:

Anything John Travolta stars in is a good movie...he's soooo cute...Who cares if his acting abilities aren't always up to par;)

Television:

Not a week goes by without watching 2 and a half men...it's hysterical! I'm also constantly surfing between the Travel Channel, Food Network and The Weather Channel. Law and ORder and anything involving police and mysteries is my thing as well.

Books:

Books? What are they? Wow, it's been so long since I've sat down and read a book..I tend to stick with magazines these days..although currently I'm working through a book on Negotiation skills and strategies.

Heroes:

Heroes? Like Bruce Lee or Chuck Norris? Is that what you were expecting? No, honestly these days I'm going to have to go with my grandma...For anybody who knows me and what we've gone through together in the last year, will know why....She didn't succumb, she stood up and conquered and now she's moving on with her life as a winner!!!
