About Me

I love winter. I love the smell of a wood-burning fireplace. I like stale cheetos. The best popcorn is the popcorn my dad grows in his own garden. I take pictures of everything (deal with it or else go away). I think it's very important to know your own genealogy (it's not only interesting, but I think that it can also explain some things about that person). I enjoy walking through cemeteries and reading headstones. I do not care anything about politics. I love American history, but only everything before 1900 (after 1900, you've lost me). I collect themed Uno cards (Care Bears, Sesame Street, Nsync, etc.). Yes, I have a deck of Nsync Uno cards. I am a cat person. I wish I could buy everything in antique stores. I also wish I had a house that I could fill with all of those antique items I just bought (in my mind). I love Happy Bunny, because I think he has a lot of great ideas. I like to read my horoscope, but only at the end of the day...just to see if anything really happened. I have weird dreams at night, and sometimes they come true.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Living?....not sure. Maybe someone like Orlando Bloom... :)Not living... Abraham Lincoln, George Washington (by 6th cousin, 7 times removed), and all ancestors...

My Blog

Ummm...so now it's April...

Yeah...if you can't tell, I don't spend a lot of time on Myspace anymore. And I feel guilty for neglecting it. So the other night I changed my profile picture and tonight I have changed the backgrou...

Raise your hand if you think it is way too soon to be October already... Uh huh. That's what I thought, too!! How in the WORLD is this even possible? I mean, at this rate, I fe...

What I want to be when I grow up.

Okay. So lately, I've really been struggling with what I want to do. What I want to get out of life. Who I really want to be. So I thought I'd blog a list of things I'd like to...

random thoughts...

So it's been a while since I've blogged anything. Did anyone even notice? Probably not...but that's okay. I guess. I don't really know what to talk about, exactly. I have a lot...

Birthdays, jury duty, and Just Shoot Me.

February....oh February. It's one of the craziest months of the year, I think. At least for me. And I'm not even talking about Valentine's Day. Nope. I'm just talking abo...

Merry Christmas!

There is something totally wrong with driving around with the windows down... and it being just a few days before Christmas. I don't like it. Not one bit. Christmas is supposed to be...

Movies, weather, award shows, etc.

Two weeks ago, I saw my first honest to goodness 3D movie. In the theater, even. Aren't you all proud? A few days after that, we had tornados come thru the area. And while the tornad...

Once you've been tagged, you have to write a blog w/10 weird, random things, facts, habits, or goals about yourself. At the end, you choose 10 people to be tagged, list their names, and why you chose ...

Arkansas, Missouri, and back to work.

Two weeks ago right now, I was at my parents' house in Illinois. I'd gone on an interview that afternoon...and was hopeful about it. I found out later, that even though the woman conductin...
