"I struggle sometimes"

About Me

I'm a Nevada girl who just graduated from UC Berkeley and is on a three year plan to be come a certified prosthetist (careful how you say that) and orthotist. I'll be living in good old Chicago for the next stretch and then probably Southern California after that (trust me the Southern California thing was not my choice!!!!). My unltimate dream is to end up back in the Bay living in San Francisco...best place on earth!!! I'm very active and think there is no better way to blow off the end of the day than an intese workout. As a former soccer player I now love to cycle, spin, and get buff with the weights (sorry kids these knees just can't run anymore). I also love the city...you name it and I love doing it...museums, parks, GOOD wine, bars...seriously whatever. I love hearing from people so drop me a line. CHEERS!

My Interests

I like... To Always Be Saucy, crunch wrap supremes, sparkling things, confusing people with nonsense, being tall, things that smell like gardenias, tenderness, Goalkeeping, dirty shirleys, massage oil, GILMORE GIRLS, anything with pasta sauce or cheese on it, moonstones, cycling, drunken board games, good wine, sweating it out at spin class, getting paid, bay area sunsets, The Kurtis!!, Neil Diamond, a tight set up.

I'd like to meet:

The idiot who invented Stiletto heels....so I can kick him in the balls

Music:

Postal Service, everclear, Alanis!!!, Better Than Ezra, Nada Surf, Haul and Oats (thanks to Mr. Kurtis), toad the wet sproket, Neil Diamond, and of course anything by Elton John

Movies:

Wierd Science (really great one liners), Moulin Rouge (so romantic), American Beauty, Spaceballs, Garden State, What about Bob, How to Make an American Quilt, Anne Of Green Gables (childhood classic), Dodgeball, Mean Girls, Phantom of the Opera, Grandma's boy

Television:

I am obsessed with Gilmore Girls!!!! But 24 is also equally as adicting. Scrub and Family guy really can't be beat either.

Books:

The secret life of Bees, kite runner, Kaffir Boy, Harry Potter (how can you not love that kid), Hocus pokas, In the lake of the woods, The Alchamist (a must), The professor and the Mad Man, Freakonomics, Our Inner Ape
