Myspace LayoutsE-mail: [email protected] am 33 years old. Married 8 years. No children. I love kids, but the timing's never seemed right for me. I have 1 cat-daughter named Vandy (short for Vanderbilt, because she is black and gold) and one other cat who lives with my mom and dad. I am a lifelong resident of Humphreys County, born and raised here. I have one brother, Jacen, age 30. We share a birthday! He made me AN AUNT!!! My brother has a step-daughter, Taylor, 14, and a baby boy, Bryce (I call him "Jib Jab"), 1 yr 9 months. My parents are my life. I live for them. I'd die for them. I'd fight for them and kill for them. My favorite season of the year is Fall. I love the color RED. I love Italian food. I like to cook. I like music and comedy. I hate turmoil and drama but trust me, I have plenty. I love reconnecting with my old friends because it's good for my soul. They make me smile and make me feel loved. I am a good girl with a mean streak and a compassionate person with a vendictive side. I smile, but vinegar courses through my veins. I hold a mean grudge and subscribe wholly to the theories that what goes around comes around and bad deeds will be punished. I have not been to college, but I have good parents who made sure I had a good head on my shoulders and I've done alright anyway. I love peace and happiness but I don't have enough of either one. I keep my circle small because I don't trust. I have almost given up on humanity, but a little glimmer of hope still remains. My heart is huge. If you live in my heart now, you always will because I have chosen my 'heart people' carefully and they are few. If you aren't in my heart but want to get in, you've got your work cut out for you. Good luck with that. If you were once in my heart but got kicked out, you will NEVER get back in. No second chances. I don't forgive. When God handed out the forgiveness tools, I was busy building a wall around my heart and I missed it. Sorry 'bout that. I've had my heart broken before, but I ASSURE YOU it will never happen again. Ever. I have a system in place that guarantees it. When I love, I love wholeheartedly. When I don't, I just don't. I ride the fence on almost every matter in life: politics, religion, etc., but when it comes to matters of the heart, you're either in or you're out. There's no middle ground. I'm a bit of a control freak. I don't want to control YOU, I just have a need to control myself and I don't need your help, thanks. Sometimes this makes me a rebel...without a cause. Tell me not to do something or that I can't do something and chances are, I'll do it just to defy you. I am a Cancer (zodiac) and like the crab, I have a shell. It's indestructable. If I feel threatened by you, I will retreat into my shell, safe and sound, then stick out my tongue at you, chanting, "NAH NAH NA BOO BOO" from there. And there's nothing you can do about it, because you can't get in and all your powers are useless against me. I win. I'm a country girl at heart. I grew up eating whatever my dad killed for us and when I started dating and ate steak (beef), it tasted funny to me. Ha! Ha! I have no problem peeing outside. Ha! Ha! I've marked territory all over this county. I think too much and analyze everything TO DEATH. I am drawn to laughter. If you are sad and negative, I will avoid you like the plague 'cause frankly, you bring me down and I just don't need the negative reinforcement. If you are happy, I will follow you to the ends of the earth...trying to learn your secret. When I love you, I've SO got your back. I'm not affectionate. I don't know why. Borderline Autistic better describes it. I have no patience, but I am extremely tolerant. I have staying power like you'd never believe. I am strong and I can get used to almost anything. You can push me and push me, but back me in a corner and I'll come out swinging...arms and legs flailing wildly like a windmill...in kill mode...and you will lose. If I'm MAD and you see me cry, get out of my way...something bad is about to happen. If I'm SAD and you see me cry, I will find comfort in your embrace and my tears will stop. I'm not one of those people who will call for help in times of need. I just don't "need" I guess. I tend to withdraw when I am stressed and sort things out on my own. When I scream I HATE YOU, I mean it. When I tell you I LOVE YOU, I mean it. And I've been known to say both to the same person in the same hour. I believe distance makes the heart grow fonder and sometimes I just need my space. Not MySpace, but MY SPACE. The older I get, the more I realize I've been misguided in life by unhappy people, which taught me to compromise alot. Thankfully, my eyes are being opened to broader horizons with every new day. I know my future's so bright, I gotta wear shades. I am in constant pursuit of happiness and learning more and more every day that I never have to settle for anything less than everything I ever dreamed of. I'm on a mission in life and I know I'll get where I'm going, even though I do tend to always go the long way. My path to happiness may not be the "right" way for everyone but I'm not responsible for everyone's happiness...only my own. My old Chemistry teacher used to say, "There's more than one way to get to Memphis." If my way's not right for you, by all means, don't follow me. Make your own way. I don't care how you get there, as long as you do. We all deserve to be happy and sometimes you just gotta bow up and flip a bird to the world. Sometimes, you gotta jump out of the drumline and make your own music, dance to your own beat. Sometimes you gotta get red stripes painted in your hair to send a message. Life's too short. Snap out of your coma and program yourself to LIVE! LAUGH! LOVE! Don't miss a thing. I have made a few bad choices in life and lost a lot of time I can't get back, but I've come to see my past as "stepping stones". It's how I got "here" and the choices I make from this point forward will take me "there". No worries. Anything you want to know about me, just ask. I have no modesty left in life and I'll tell you anything.

My Interests

Shopping, hanging out with family and friends, going through old photos - pretending that one day, I might really sit down and try some scrapbooking. I like organizing, cleaning and taking care of my house. (I have a touch of OCD and I love it. There's order to my disorder, even when I'm the only one who sees it.)

I'd like to meet:

Less liars, losers, thieves and users, as well as God, 'cause I don't know him - we've not been introduced...and boy, do I have a lot of questions! Ron White, Comedian, because he cracks me up with his sarcastic humor. I think we have alot in common and could probably talk and laugh forever; my mom's grandmother who died when I was a baby; the producers of Rome, because I owe them a cussing for ending the series; my grandfather's old navy buddy, Mr. Ramage, because I found him on the internet by accident after he'd searched for my grandfather for 51 years and now we've lost touch; My dad's dad, Pop, who died when I was 7. I barely remember him but they say he was crazy about me. And I'd really like to meet Matthew Fox, who plays "Jack", the doctor on Lost. He's my secret luvah. I don't even have to MEET him, really. I just want to look at him and hear him talk and see him smile.

Music:

I like Bleeding Love by Leona Lewis. I also like Watching Airplanes by Gary Allan. I REALLY like the remake of Life In A Northern Town by Sugarland, Little Big Town and Jake Owen. I love Whiskey Girl by Toby Keith. I like all kinds of music except bluegrass and classical, maybe. I like the Eagles, Train, Maroon5, Blue October, old Bon Jovi, Nickelback, Garth Brooks and Merle Haggard. I love ballads. I really like hard metal stuff too -the old school stuff like Motley Crue, Joan Jett, Quiet Riot, KISS and RATT. I like some rap & R&B - especially Too Short and that song, 'California Love' by Tupac and Dr. Dre - the '96 remix. I'm a sucker for a slow song. Sky Blue & Black by Jackson Browne is a fave. It tugs at my heartstrings and makes me cry. I also love ATTITUDE songs (Carrie Underwood's Before He Cheats, for example). I Love, Love, Love THE 80s! All those songs and videos that remind me of leg warmers, big hair, up-turned collars, Valley Girl talk and neon colors. I love booty shakin' songs, but I admit I'm not much good at shakin' my booty. Ha! Ha! Songs tell stories and I use songs to get in touch with my feelings and emotions. I sometimes use songs to share feelings and emotions. Keep your ears open. Never know when I might be playing YOUR song!

Movies:

Stealing Home, Sleeping With The Enemy, Tombstone, Always, Young Guns, The Color Purple, To Kill A Mockingbird, Fried Green Tomatoes, The Legend of Billie Jean, Heathers, My Girl, 300 (I'm a Spartan and I'm always up for some good butt kickin' action - Ha!), SAW I, II, and III, Hostile and all other blood and guts horror movies. I love happy endings and movies so sweet they make me cry.

Television:

LOST on ABC (gotta love that Dr. Jack!) and ROME on HBO (there's just something about a grungy Roman soldier - Vorenus and Titus Pullo are my secret luvahs when Dr. Jack is busy)! I think I've seen every single Law & Order episode as well as every single CSI Las Vegas episode. I hate reality shows like Survivor and I hate gameshows and sitcoms. Gag. I love 48 Hours Mystery and forensic stuff like New Detectives and Forensic Files. I love the VH1 Top 100 countdowns.

Books:

James Patterson's Alex Cross series (murder, murder, murder) as well as James Patterson's Women's Murder Club series (more murder, murder, murder). I don't read much, but when I do, I go for the gore. Tried to read the Bible, but it just confuses me.

Heroes:

I don't idolize people, but I do admire anyone who possesses the ability to walk in FAITH, BELIEVE in anything, LOVE and TRUST with all their HEART and when love and trust fail them, FORGIVE. How in HELL do you do that?!? And of course, my mom and dad, who to me are heroes above all others...just because.
