I always have one of those on my nightstand. Other than that, I read (mostly) the classics (depending on your definition). I love movies. I have a DVD addiction like you have never seen. I enjoy many television shows, but my impatience deems that I not watch them during the season. Oddly enough I’m patient enough to wait for them on DVD. Once I sit down with a season of something, I watch it straight thru. I will turn off my phone during these marathon sessions. I love my job. I get paid to sit in bars and hang out. When I do have a day off, you will not find me in a bar. I don’t drink very often. I kinda quit smoking, but I’ll smoke a cigarette if Skip’s around. Speaking of Skip.. He’s my best friend, and roommate. Ladies, he’s the first person on my “Top 8”. Take a look. If you like him, I’ll hook you up. I love to go to shows. I’ll drive pretty much anywhere to see the right show. I have an over active sex drive. But I’m a one man girl. In other words, if we’re together, we’ll probably spend more time in bed than out. I don’t cuddle. Go make a sandwich and watch TV. But don’t bother me if I want to sleep. That does not apply to afternoon naps. But if you wake me up, you’re a dead man. I love animals. All animals. I believe in treating people right. That includes a somewhat 50’s attitude towards my husband. If the dishes get to the sink, they’ll get washed. If the clothes make it into the hamper, they’ll be washed and folded or hung properly. I treat my friends well. Sometimes to a fault. I believe that money can always be earned, and I spend mine with reckless abandon. I make sure my bills get paid first, then I’ll spend all I have and eat ramen til I get paid again. If it’s not fun, I won’t do it. I have three roommates. My house just became The Real World Vortex. One past employee, two current employees, and I work there once a week for my job. So. Carpooling made easy. I’m stubborn. The only person I know who’s more stubborn than me is my husband. But, I do speak his language, and that gets me what I want when necessary. I love cars. I drive a truck. I don’t slow down for speed bumps. I don’t “brake” for anything in particular. I love cheese. I hate cheesy. I wash my sheets twice a week, which is apparently obsessive compulsive (so says the new Stuff Magazine). I don’t like girly magazines. I have subscriptions to Maxim, Stuff, FHM, Playboy.. When they come in the mail, I get them before any of my 3 male roommates get their mitts on them. I am not shy. I will give anyone a straight answer to any question. Go ahead.. Try me. I’m blunt always. If I don’t enjoy talking to you, I’ll walk away without a word. I have far too many baseball caps for a girl (so says my mother). I don’t cook. I can bake like nobody’s business, but if I cook you anything more complicated than cheese eggs, please know that you’re taking your life into your own hands. I love to laugh. I believe in a woman’s right to choose. I’m for capital punishment, but I don’t know that I could pull the switch personally. I love kids. I will probably never have any of my own. I don’t believe I’ll ever get married for real. I love oldies, country, punk, rock n roll. I love a good dive bar. I like to know a bartender by name before he puts my drink in front of me. I won’t stand for any man physically abusing a woman. And, Yes I have personal reasons. I enjoy writing. Whether I’m good or not.. Has yet to be proven one way or the other. I have a private investigator’s license for the state of Georgia. I can carry a weapon if so desired, but rarely do, as I feel that they really aren’t necessary. I was a sharpshooter when I was 15. I won every spelling bee I was in during school. I won a fishing trophy on my 14th birthday for catching a puffer fish off the coast of Georgia. I have lived in Atlanta, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. I was born in Georgia. I’m moving to Texas with Skip in January. I think pennies are useless. For me personally, it takes 461 licks to get to the center of a tootsie pop (experiment in 8th grade.. And there are some variables I need to redefine)).I voted for both Georges. I believe a flag represents what you want it to represent. Beauty is not in the eye of the beholder. It is formulated in the pages of Playboy and Cosmo. Natural beauty is rare. Natural talent is even more so. I love cottage cheese and nectarines for breakfast. I run on my treadmill every day. But only when no one else is in the house. I have no explanation as to why I prefer it that way. I believe there is no statute of limitations on friendship. I tend to like others more than they like me. I am obsessive compulsive. I like The Clermont Lounge, The Corner Pub in Decatur, and The Earl. I like Cowboys and Wild Bills. I love The Star Bar. I’ll miss Mulligans. I miss The Point, 9Lives, and I'm barely old enough to miss The Metroplex.I think The Atlanta Roller Derby kicks ass. I have no tolerance for ignorance or stupidity. And, yes, there is a difference. I’ll do anyone a favor once, but if you don’t say thanks, you won’t get another. I’m pierced and tattooed. If you touch me and I don’t invite it, I may break your arm. I have before. I play pool alot. I only play for money if playing against my husband. We're a pretty fair match if both in the same state of inebriation. Wheat Thins are my favorite cracker.
