About Me

My real name's Deirdre (There! I said it!). I work hard, therefore I play hard. I'm extremely fanatical about music (I own over 900 CDs!) and love to dance. I'm very goal oriented and usually accomplish what I set my mind to.

My Interests

Music, music, music. Did I mention music? ;) Depeche Mode, in particular. I'm very much into writing, dancing, overanalyzing, family, my fantastic friends, honesty, sincerity...generally, no b.s.Take the quiz: "Which Depeche Mode album are you?"

Music for the Masses
Many people will consider you to be Depeche Mode's greatest album. You broke out big in America after this record in a big way. what Creation Records band are you? (complete with text and images)
You Are... Slowdive.You are very comfortable with the person that you are. You are pretty traditional in a classical sort of way. You relate most to things of a darker, more mysterious nature. You tend to be quiet and shy but you still manage to make friends pretty easilly. Though your ambition is bigger than your talents, your perseverance will always lead you to bigger and greater things.
Take this quiz !

Jealousy

I wrote a blog about this on livejournal yesterday so I'll do the same here. Who here tends to get jealous?  If so, what do you do to rid yourself of those feelings?
