My Interests

I love reading, music, singing, movies, politics, musicals, theater, writing poetry, watching sports (especially football, baseball, hockey, and basketball), etc. Working with young people is my true passion so I try to put what extra time I have into avenues that deal with that...mostly through church.My favorite teams are the San Fransisco 49ers and the Miami Dolphins, Dallas Mavericks, Dallas Stars, and Texas Rangers. I despise the Dallas Cowboys.

I'd like to meet:

....anyone who isn't stupid and at least has a modicum of intelligence.I despise people who are fake: people who seek attention from wherever they can get it from or who flip-flop on their beliefs or opinions based on what will get them the most attention. They are a waste of my time. I'd rather spend time with people who are REAL. I also want to meet people who aren't selfish and who don't put pressure on their friends in order meet their OWN needs and wants and who don't USE other people for what they can get from them. I love my friends and there's nothing I love more than seeing them happy and successful. I'm very vocal...never afraid to speak up, but I also care for others and want the best for them. I've been very blessed in my own life and there's nothing I wouldn't give another person if they were in need and I was able to help them. I believe people should live the best life they know how to live and take responsibility for their actions. I also believe people shouldn't live their lives to be liked by other people...my life is living proof of that. :)CLICK THE IMAGE BELOW!

Music:

I like all kinds of music...with the exception of hardcore rock, rap, and country music. I love Chris Tomlin, Natalie Grant, Casting Crowns. I also like Blue October, Nickelback, etc.

Movies:

Crash, Lord of the Rings trilogy, Flags of Our Fathers, The Guardian, Meet the Parents, Benny and Joon, Pride and Prejudice, The Ring, The Grudge, Saw (trilogy)....so many more. I'm a movie NUT. I love going to the movies and the only kind of movies I'm not a big fan of are sci-fi. Other than that, I'll watch anything at least once. There was one movie I liked so much that I saw it 50 times in the theater...haha. That was several years ago, though.

Television:

I absolutely LOVE I Love Lucy re-runs! I love reality TV...Survivor, Big Brother (love you, James, Rachel, Kaysar, George, and Howie), The Amazing Race, etc. I also watch Lost, Boston Legal (LOVE James Spader & William Shatner), Desperate Housewives, etc. I've try not to catch too many "new" shows because I already have my faves and I don't want to be tied to my TV all night.

Books:

The Bible, Left Behind series, Biographies, books by C.S. Lewis, other spiritual based books, and books in the political arena are the main types of books I read.

Heroes:

Children.....especially my nephew. My heroes are also people who stand up for what is right and people who serve others before themselves.

Ahhhh, it’s football season

As I type this, I'm watching the Miami Hurricanes and Oklahoma Sooners.  I don't really watch college football as much as I watch professional football, though.  I don't feel the connection ...

So, whenever I get a few feet from my manager she starts to walk away and playfully says "get away from me, you make me itch."  It all started when she came to my desk one day and I explained som...

Take a minute...and breathe
