I am here for Friends

About Me

I love life! And I love God who blessed me with the opportunity to live it! Those are the two most important pieces of information about me. I love to learn and explore the world around me and I am never dissapointed in what I find. I have learned that the only thing that can trump the lovely creations of men is the mind boggling beauty that comes straight from the hand of God. I love to travel and I enjoy it in any form, obviously I fly alot but I also enjoy road trips, especially with the right company! I have two dogs that are wonderful companions and family who loves me dearly and I can't help but love them back! I have not yet attended college, I want to but I can't make up my mind what to study, there are so many wonderful things to learn! I also see myself as a good mix of girly-girl and tomboy. That means I can kick your butt at tree climbing and look gorgeous doing it! Ha! I am a flight attendant. I also love my job, I truly enjoy what I do and while I may not do it forever I will always be grateful for the opportunity. There's nothing quite like making people feel at home 30,000 ft. in the air!

My Interests

I love books, reading is a passion. The outdoors, biking, swimming, hiking etc. Travel! Anywhere! Anyhow! Cooking....this girl loves to eat! Animals: I have two dogs and I enjoy all creatures! Classic movies and television. Photography although I'm not all that good at it. I love art, I don't consider myself educated in it but I love it for it's aesthetic value, especially in architectural form. I have an avid interest in politics. Most of all Christ Jesus, the everyday humbling experience of growing closer to Him.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone really, people are fascinating. But specifically someone who shares my love of the outdoors and God. Who possesses the ability to see value in every experience, not just the obviously pleasant ones. Someone who can carry on a lengthy conversation and who can be silly at times. Someone who loves to travel and will adventure with me!

Music:

I enjoy Christian music, Jazz, Dance/Techno, Oldies and random bits and pieces of everything else.Lacuna Coil and Joydrop(Thanks Rende!) I have found when I fly that the only music I seem to hear are the majestic old hymns. Nothing else comes to mind that can touch the glorious view, those pieces seem made for it. This is amazing given the fact that the composers of the hymns never saw the view that I experience nearly every day. Makes you wonder if God didn't open their inner sight to encompass things they couldn't even imagine! I like live as long as the venue is small, no massive eardrum rupturing concerts for me.

Movies:

Classics, definitely...Gidget, The Great Race, Rebecca etc., Pride and Prejudice, The Notebook, Lord of the Rings, the Narnia movies, It's really wonderful if it can entertain and teach me at the same time!

Television:

Smallville, Get Smart, Dick Van Dyke, HGTV, What Not to Wear, FOX News and that's about it. I don't really care for television and only turn it on about once a week. I'd rather be outside! ;0)

Books:

Chronicles of Narnia, Lord of the Rings, George McDonalds Fairy Tales, Anything by Patricia McKillip or Robin McKinley, Jane Austen, The Book of Useless Information, In Style Magazine(Guilty Pleasure), Nancy Drew, Mere Christianity, The Weight of Glory, The Great Divorce, Till We Have Faces, Anne of Green Gables, Oxford Pocket Dictionary and Thesaurus(NERD!), 20,001 Names for Baby (I LOVE the meaning of names!), Uprising, The Barbarian Way, Truthfully I'm just a bibliophile.

Heroes:

Jesus Christ! My Daddy,Nancy Drew, Anne Coulter, Adrian Rogers, The men and women in our armed forces,

The Weight of Beauty

My days have been spent lately wandering the trails of Shelby Farms. It is the perfect season for such meanderings, everything that smells gorgeous is in bloom. The combination of clover, honeysuckle,...

Overshadowed by Elvis

Every year my birthday is overshadowed by the King. Not Jesus, King of Kings and Lord of Lords in whom I am made complete, no, I could handle that. Nope it's Elvis I speak of, the King of Rock n' Roll...

Watch yourself..........

I feel I must warn you about the hazards of violent play with your friends. Never, ever, under any circumstances give your friend a *playful* kick in the rear. It so happens, I have found, that if&nbs...
