I am here for Friends

About Me

Hi. I'm Katie and I'm a laid back spazz with a fantastic life! I graduated with a nursing degree in May and got a fantastical dreamy job as an RN at HCMC. I'm blissful about it. It's funny how life has a way of falling into place.I live with my boyfriend Adam and our dogs Bits Dew. Bits is a wonderful pet and Dew is a show dog. I've just started showing him! We're avid bikers and I just recently took up golf. I've been playing a week and I'm just as terrible as I thought I'd be but it's sure fun!My general mindset is that life's as happy or as miserable as you make it. Prancing always makes things better...possibly skipping too but only if it's the high-knee variety. As of late much chaos has gone on in my world but I can proudly say that I've taken it all in stride. I'm a firm believer that things happen for reasons and if you're open to whatever life wants to give you, without having strict timelines and ideas, you'll be much much happier."Inward calm cannot be maintained unless physical strength is constantly and intelligently replenished" Layout made by miiichellley at CreateBlog.com .

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Unicorn wranglers and other assorted interesting people.Something I don't want: people to send me a friend request if they've never even talked to me before. Seriously throw someone a message instead of just randomly sending out request. It's weird.It's kind of like running up to someone at a store, taking their picture, then running home and putting it in a new OMG BEST FRIENDS FOREVER OMG frame. Then when your regular old friends came over you show them the framed photo of the person from the store and proclaim your friendship for said person, only you've never even talked to them so does it make sense? No. It doesn't.

Mable Dahling which Wine Pairs Best with Sour Patch Kids?

I wish I had a wine expert maid named Mable.  I can tell you from personal experience that a Tuscan cab blend isn't the right wine with sour patch kids. I got at A on my final on Monday.  It...

I moved my hours at work up a half hour (8-430) just so I'd have more time to style my hair.  I feel like that's either vain or somehow irresponsible but it's working out well for me&until it hit...
