It is what it is.

About Me

I'm a redheaded, green-eyed, mercifully medicated, 51-year-old wench. Yes, I said WENCH! In fact, I'm wench 1257 of the International Wenches Guild (www.wench.org)I was born and raised in the 50s and 60s in Livonia, MI, a suburb of Motown; moved to Wayzata, MN during my sophomore year of high school (talk aobut your culture shock) and relocated again to Kansas City, MO (it's the tour of "M" states) after college graduation and I've been here since.I have two sons I've raised myself - Taylor is 16 and Cameron is 23. Their existence proves God has a really wicked sense of humor. Insanity is hereditary - I got it from them!!! I also have three furry lowrider children (aka dachshunds) who keep me laughing!I live in a smallish town of about 4,000 just north of Kansas City, MO and I hope to someday live on/own a small farm - or at least enough land to have more dogs and a horse or three!I'm smart and sassy, have a great (if not ribald) sense of humor; a good heart, a sometimes-too-big mouth, a wide variety of interests and hobbies and not enough money to support any of them! I work at a large bank in the commercial division as an administrative assistant.

My Interests

Computers, needlecrafts of all sorts, sewing, comedy, performing, Renaissance Festivals, theatre, country life, women's issues, family & children's issues, laughter.

I'd like to meet:

Oh wow! Can I say anyone?! I'd like to meet Queen Elizabeth I, Shakespeare, Michelangelo, Omar Sharif, Richard Chamberlain, Queen Latifa, Alan Alda, Harry Morgan, Marie Curie, the Dali Lama, Mary Magdalene, Carol Burnett, Oprah Winfrey and all my female forebearers.

Music:

I'm pretty equal opportunity about music. I'd have to say my tastes are wide and varied from classical to country, pop to swing, jazz and blues to celtic. Easier to say I don't like heavy metal, acid rock, gangsta rap or angry, non-musical noise.

Movies:

Comedies, action, romantic, fantasy, period pieces, good mysteries, musicals.

Television:

Whats wrong with these pictures and/or women?

There are some things even a great photographer like Paul of Photography on the Run just can't make look good.  I'm sure - or I hope at least - that he didn't see the wrongness of two of the phot...

Political Stupidity Blah, Blah, Blah
