I am here for Friends

About Me

Hi, there! I'm a busy working Mom with two kids and a very understanding, hard working husband. I work in the insurance field (yawn), but I wear a lot of "hats" which breaks up the monotony, and my position allows me to be creative and have some fun!

My Interests

Myriad.I love my family and spending time with them.I LOVE Halloween! As far as I'm concerned, the entire month of October should be set aside for celebrating all things Halloween, and each year I do my darndest to make it happen.Beyond that, I love movies and television, especially of the horror and scifi/fantasy genres. I'm not happy unless I have a really good book to read. Music is a very important part of my life, and I also love cooking and wine; something my husband and I share with a passion.Finally, I love to dance, especially to the Blues, although I don't get to do so as often as I'd like.

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet Roger Waters and David Gilmore from Pink Floyd, also David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson. I'd also like to meet George Bush, if only to tell him what a mess I think he's made of our country. No offense to all you Republicans out there; that's just the way I feel. I'm voting for Jon Stewart & Stephen Colbert in 2008!I wish I could have met Stevie Ray Vaughn before he died.

Music:

Check out King Johnson
for funky roots music !

Animation provided by dluxproductions.comThe Blues is my favorite, followed by Rock and then Jazz and Classical. I love everything from ACDC to Led Zeppelin and beyond, but some of my favorites are Stevie Ray Vaughn, Pink Floyd, Tom Petty, Sheryl Crow, Coldplay, BB King, Eric Clapton, Gorillaz, Talking Heads and the list goes on and on.My favorite local (or regional) band is King Johnson, from Atlanta. Miss you, Guys! I also love Eric Lindell from good old New Orleans, and I can't forget about Tom Principato, a man whose amazing guitar skills have kept me dancing like a crazy woman at the Double Door for more than 20 years. Much love, Tom!

Movies:

The Godfather Parts 1 and 2 would be at the top of my list. Some other more recent favorites are Sling Blade and American History X. In the horror/suspense category I love Black Christmas, Rosemary's Baby, the Shining, and let's not forget about Night of the Living Dead. My favorite horror comedies are An American Werewolf in London and Shaun of the Dead. In the SciFi category, some of my favorites are Blade Runner and the Matrix trilogy. There are many, many others, but these are just a few of the movies I love.Right now I'm very much looking forward to the new movie, Death Walks the Streets. Can't wait to see it!

Television:

The X-Files is my very favorite tv show of all time, followed by Buffy and Angel. Other shows I've loved in the past were Millennium, Twin Peaks, Farscape and Roswell. I also miss Six Feet Under, Carnivale and Deadwood, and I hate HBO for cancelling those last two before they were finished! I'll also miss Rome on HBO.My current favorite shows are Dexter, Lost, 24, Reaper, Californication, Heroes, Chuck, Pushing Daisies, Moonlight, Torchwood, L.A. Ink, and just about anything on the Food Network.

Books:

The Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon, Harry Potter, Charlaine Harris's Sooky Stackhouse mysteries, ANYTHING by Neil Gaiman, the Dark Tower series by Stephen King and many, many more.

Heroes:

My husband is my hero, and that's all I have to say about that.

My Dream House...

Back to business as usual...

Well, it's been an interesting couple of weeks.  I can tell you I've had much better Thanksgivings but I won't complain because it's my poor husband who really had it bad.  He's been so sick...
