Good morning. You're on the friendly show.

About Me

I wish someone else would fill this out since I don't like to talk about myself. Okay, I know, are you done laughing now? Okay. I'm really laid back, and I don't really like to do anything unless I think it's fun. Some things that I think are fun are frisbee, Mario Kart, watching movies with friends, pretty much doing anything with my friends, playing in the water, playing with my silly chihuahuas, singing like there's no tomorrow, dancing while no one is looking, reading, cooking, especially baking cookies, going to arcades to play skee ball and air hockey, driving, shopping (especially for shoes :D), fixing my hair and being super duper girly.

My Interests

I am interested in a lot of stuff. I'm a major college football fan, and even though this season has been completely disappointing, I love my Hogs!!!! I love all things theatre, and I wish I could have a job like Samantha Brown's where I just get to travel the world all of the time.

I'd like to meet:

Steven Tyler, all kinds of funny people, Viggo Mortensen, Tom Hanks, Hulk Hogan (come on, who WOULDN'T wanna meet the Hulkster?), Carrie Bradshaw, Darren McFadden, That drunk chick who got in my car one night, and the SportsCenter crew.

Music:

Hmm.....lots and lots of stuff. Aerosmith is my favorite. I also love love love U2, Metallica, Jimi Hendrix,The Beatles, GNR, Johnny Cash, Pink Floyd, old school Michael Jackson, Madonna, En Vogue, Prince, Outkast, Nelly, old George Strait, Nirvana, Van Halen, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Def Leppard, The Beach Boys, Dave Matthews, Bon Jovi, Led Zeppelin, Pearl Jam, Eminem, and The Rolling Stones to name a few. I also am madly in love with classical music, and since I'm such a theatre nerd, I love stuff from musicals like Rent, Grease, Wicked, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Movies:

Top Gun, The Little Mermaid, Silence of the Lambs, Red Dragon, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Scream, Edward Scissorhands, Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill, Sunset Boulevard, All About Eve, Dumb and Dumber, Forrest Gump, Star Wars, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, E.T., Rocky (especially I and IV), Stand By Me, The Shawshank Redemption, Harry Potter (yes, All of them), and The Wizard of Oz. There are lots more, I really REALLY love movies.

Television:

I'm completely, hopelessly addicted to Lost. I also looove Entourage, The Office, Scrubs, Weeds, and CSI. When I have time, I try to catch The Soup, What Not to Wear, and reruns of Sex and the City and Friends. I've recently gotten into Dexter, but I always fall asleep before the end of the episode. I think I'll have to Netflix it or something, because it's really fantastic, but because it's on late-ish and I always have to be at work early-ish I just can't make it. I'm also gonna have to get Pushing Daisies, because I saw the first episode and absolutely fell in love with it, but I never seem to be at home when it's on. I also spend more time than I care to admit watching spam tv, like The E! True Hollywood Story.

Books:

I'm a Harry Potter Maniac. Other than Harry, I have always liked to read Stephen King. I like to read plays, too. Especially Shakespeare. I've always been a big fan of Mythology, especially Greek, Roman, and Egyptian. But I'll read pretty much anything I can get my hands on.

Heroes:

G-$ and Scotty Joe(Mom and Dad),My big sissy Shanna Banana(her husband and kids are pretty freakin' awesome too! Man I love my niece and nephew!)Lil' Brudder Scooter,My Granny, Superman, Steven Tyler

The beginning of the end

So the good news is, I'll get to sleep a little later in the mornings, and come into work around 8 or 8:30 like a normal person. The bad news is, I'll no longer be doing the Friendly Show. No more roc...

The miracle of life........chihuahua style

Note: Some of this is pretty gross. If you're easily grossed out, you might not want to proceed. So, I knew that Tony "The Face" Montana had gotten Mrs. Marcellus Wallace knocked up. And I know tha...
