About Me

i am just a poor girl, though my story's seldom told...i grew up in santa clarita (much as i despise the place, it'll always be home to me), and i believe i'm in the same place that most other twentysomethings are: just now figuring out what i want to do with my life, and doing my best to get by. i am the proud mother of a 5-year-old daughter, Jasmine, but she lives with my ex-husband in Tennessee right now, and an 22-month-old son, Andy. i guess i'm here to make friends, chat and stuff. i sound kinda boring but i'm really not! it's just hard to toot your own horn without sounding self-absorbed. well, if you'd like to know more, hit me up, i'll get you back!! )

My Interests

music, movies, cars, music, fantasy/fiction books, music, stimulating conversation, sex, and music. did i mention music?

I'd like to meet:

tori amos, so i can actually stand in her divine presence...

Music:

tori amos (she's a GODDESS), nirvana, sublime, the beatles, metallica, tool, green day, alice in chains, aerosmith, christina aguilera (...thought that would throw ya off), bjork, led zeppelin, stone temple pilots, janis joplin, jimi hendrix, the doors,...i can't list it all here, but my taste leans towards classic rock, 90's rock, and soul mamas (janis, grace, ella..ya know, soul mamas).

Movies:

Dead Poets Society, Fight Club, City of Lost Children, Pulp Fiction (pretty much anything by Quentin Tarantino), Good Will Hunting, Moulin Rouge, Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Matrix , Four Corners of Nowhere, The Crow, Fifth Element, Delicatessen, Snatch, Boondock Saints...you get the idea, right? mostly independent films, cult/indy classics, sci-fi/fantasy, and the occasional mega-blockbuster hit. my guilty pleasures are chick flicks and old school musicals, which i enjoy with a tub of cherry garcia ice cream and a huge bowl of popcorn.

Television:

don't watch a lot of tv anymore, but when i do, i turn on CSI (the original, none of that miami crap), Lost (my newest tv obsession), Jericho, South Park, The Simpsons, and Extreme Home Makeover (they do a good thing for good people, and the houses always look amazing). i'll also turn on the history channel, HGTV, or WWE Raw/Smackdown, but other than that, i prefer movies.

Books:

i have read 19 of david eddings' 23 published novels. so i guess that makes me a fan. i love fantasy series, but have yet to find one better than The Belgariad. even LOTR has yet to live up to eddings in my opinion.

Heroes:

John Cena from WWE Raw...he talked mad shit to bitch-ass K-Fed.

you can't do it, we won't help

I seriously think I despise home improvement centers. Every fuckin time I go to one, I'm never taken seriously. I ask a question, and I'm usually either given the brush off, or I'm sent to another dep...

the Amish have the right idea

I've been taking online classes through the University of Phoenix for about 4 months now. Don't get me wrong; the classes are great. In fact, I recommend to anyone who doesn't have the opportunity to ...

the BIG game

Well, I won't spend too long saying it: I was right. I called Indy at the beginning of the season, and lo and behold, they won the Big Game. This was the first time I felt elation at the end of a Supe...

the tori-goddess

I have very, very, very few true obsessions. Tori Amos is one of them. I am one of the millions of "Toriphiles" walking the planet, comparing each moment of their lives to a line in a Tori song (...

idol....

I tell myself every year that I'm going to audition for American Idol, and every year I find an excuse not to. Then every year when it comes back I tell myself, 'I should be on that show, I'd go ...

my husband is brilliant

after reading my husband's blogs (he's a voracious writer) I've been inspired to do the same. it's funny how letting friends and strangers read your rantings can be therapeutic more so than keeping a ...
