I have a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell!

About Me

I'm in school full time, studying Marketing. I am married (almost three years now!) and have three beautiful stepsons and a HOTT husband. We homeschool, so I've always got something to do - thats definately a GOOD thing! I also have my Siamese kitty, Butters and my Boxer, Matilda. Right now, I'm the Entertainment Manager and Booking Agent for MixxMasters Entertainment, a booking company consisting of my husband and several other DJs. I've also recently been contacted by several other out-of-state artists and DJ's looking for a manager, so we'll see how that works out. If you're an artist/DJ, check out www.myspace.com/aphexmanagement. If I get free time, I like to play poker, blackjack and 3Card Poker (either online or in a casino), go out with my husband, or even try to get away for a weekend. I read everything I can get my hands on, but during school its hard for me to read anything for pleasure. I love watching movies when I get the chance. I watch a lot of MSNBC, especially for the documentaries. I'm obsessed with Desperate Housewives, and I thank God that if I miss a show, I can watch it online for free now. I am a very nice and fun person most of the time, and enjoy meeting new people.

My Interests

Movies, music, spending time with family, casinos, travelling, dancing!

I'd like to meet:

Anybody... but you must be nice and have some intelligence. Don't email me about meeting up sometime when "my husband isn't around." Don't add me to your friends list just to send me ads all the time. And I REALLY can't stand whiny people.

When you love someone, you tend to be very giving.
