About Me



My life is starting to finally get where I want it to be. Working in an Interior Design firm. Saving for Europe. Paying our big fat mortgage. I love music and travel...that sounds so cliche....but I really love music and travel! I also love mermaids and peacocks.....but not in the collect and display a million trinkets like Christine Tayor's Dodgeball character and her unicorns. Mine is a more subtle obsession. I also dream of one-day going to a real 1970's roller disco, and I know I was a Motown or soul singer in a past life (eventhough I can't sing now). I recently discovered RETRO ROLLERSKATING out in Hillsboro.....which is as awesome as it sounds!! I used to live in Australia which was wicked! I am trying to embrace my mid to late 20's with grace and excitement.....but......not always. I still want to be a GOONIE! Thanks to Jessica for always decorating my profile page!!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

tony bourdain & jeff probst

Music:

I will share just a few of my favorite lyrics...."I think that it's a sign, that the freckles in our eyes are mirror images, and when we kiss they're perfectly aligned""I see babies cry and I watch them grow, they'll learn much more than we'll know""My anaconda don't want none unless you got buns, hun""Off these bad times I'm going through just dance""I'm a little bit tired of feeling that I'll be the bad fruit nobody buys""And you can tell everybody, this is your song""I'm thinkin' about my doorbell, when ya gonna ring it""Take my heart, take my eyes, I'll need them no more, if never again they'll fall upon the one I so adore""Here we are at the transmission party, I love your friends, they're all so arty""Tell my wife I love her very much.....she knows""So you found a girl who thinks really deep thoughs, what's so amazing about really deep thoughts, boy you best pray that I bleed real soon..how's that thought for you""Got a body like soft serve, dripping down from the noon sun""Isn't she lovely made from love""Could I have been lost somewhere in Paris""We're strange allies, with warring hearts""Why did you plaster over, that hole I punched through the door?""You wear nothing but you wear it so well""Birds fly over the rainbow, why oh why can't I""I step outside my mind's eye for a minute""I've learned to love myself unconditionally, because I am a queen"

Here are some that I have watched/can watch time and time again: Moulin Rogue, Wizard of Oz, Notting Hill, Sliding Doors, Amilie, Wedding Singer, GOONIES, Lost in Translation, Chocolat, Eternal Sunshine, The Color Purple, Sense and Sensibility, Anchorman, Zoolander, Chicago, Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind, Sound of Music, American Beauty, Roman Holiday, Gone With the Wind, Little Women (90's version), Edward Scissorhands, Silence of the Lambs, Donnie Darko, Miracle on 34th St (old version), Pulp Fiction, Boogie Nights, Streetcar Named Desire, Mommie Dearest, Labyrinth, Ferris Bueler, Shakespear in Love, the holy trinity of Australian movies: Muriel's Wedding, Strictly Ballroom, Pricilla, Queen of the Desert... Woah...too many movies.... I like fun yet inventive, thought-provoking movies.........and austin powers.

Television:

The Office, No Reservations, Survivor, Top Model, Daily Show/Colbert, Flight of the Conchords, Girls Next Door, Frontline, CSI, Antiques Roadshow, Ace of Cakes, Gilmore Girls, Penn and Teller "Bullshit", etc

Books:

I LOVE BOOKS! I have a list of books I want to read, it keeps growing! I am a book freak, though. When I was in 3rd grade, I got to be in this special club for advanced readers. We stayed inside during reccess and read novels. Good times! No wonder I am not athletic. Some of my favorites have been: ALL Harry Potter The Color Purple, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, Memoirs of a Geisha, any and all Amy Tan novels, The 7 Wonders of the World (a book of famous historical lists), Desert Flower, The Orchid Thief, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, I Don't Know How She Does It, Leonardo DaVinci, His Life and Art, Bridget Jones's Diary, Wicked(now a hit Broadway musical!), Anne of Green Gables, Little Women, A Garden of Verses, America: The Daily Show Book, The Beach, Pgymalion/My Fair Lady all my art/art history books History of the World, Alice in Wonderland/Through the Looking Glass,oh, and a bunch of others. I love it when I hit a point in a novel where I cannot put it down until I finish it! Oh, did you know I am on the cover of a book? Well, I am! It was a small novel called "Through Troubles Waters". A small Tennessee publication...my parents friend was a photographer so he submitted one of of my dad carrying me as a toddler. Who cares that it is against a sunet and we are in silhouette..it's still ME!

Heroes:

MOM, of course!

About that last blog....

"Big Surprise" was meant sarcastically in reference to our Halloween obsession, not an impending baby announcement (Sorry, Boone! Maybe next time!!). Eventually, though!
