About Me

I think I am funny which is more than what others think of me! I also think I am terribly boring. I love music and I love making it. I play quite a few instruments, and don't have the attention span to maintain my knowledge of any of them anymore. It's a pity, because I love music, and I loved contributing to it.
I currently live in Wisconsin with my husband, Tony. I have two cats, Kewe and Twinky, and a dog we call Mr. Boo.
My entire life has been frequently upheaved, uprooted and rearranged, but I not only survive, I thrive! I am employed in the Admitting department at the nearest hospital, which is a pretty interesting job. I work with a lot of really fun people and for the most part I love it.
As I have previously suggested, I have traveled far and wide! From the smallest ghost town to some of the largest cities our fair country has to offer. I have a background of interesting and enthralling details, but they certainly don't make me a very interesting person. Funny how that works. I have lived in Seattle, So. Cal., Salt Lake City, and Idaho.
I don't really know what my future plans are at this point. I'm ready and waiting for children. Someday I'd like to go back to school.[LOVEMYFLASH]

My Interests

When not working (which consumes the majority of my time,) I enjoy movies, shopping, and video game playing. My likes would be discounts and sales, people who talk so much that I don't have to, pretending I rock, and sleeping in. I like history and reading about it, and learning useless bits of information (All Hail Bathroom Reader.)

I'd like to meet:

I mostly use MySpace to reconnect with old friends and family members I have lost touch with.View All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment

I don't think summer was really here long this year. It got a slow start and seems to be getting an early finish. Whatever. I love fall, but I'm not ready for winter again. I really do like Wisconsin ...

I live!

My surgery was fine, only a few minor hitches... I ended up with 5 holes instead of 4 because it turns out my internal organs are all slightly shifted to the right. Bizarre! But I obviously came throu...

First update of the year - late!

I finally made full time at work. It’s fabulous because nothing has changed! Only difference is I get more vacation time. Whatever, I guess. My dad and sister are Wisconsin residents now. ...

Merry Christmas and what have you... I wrote out a ton of Christmas cards this year, and haven't sent any of them out yet. I'll try to do that tomorrow, if I can remember. Things are...

Flu Shot and other things

I got my flu shot last night... What the hell, dudes? That thing really hurts this year. I had a hard time sleeping on my arm and it's still pretty tender. I always get the flu anyway, so ...

We survived the trip to Saint Paul (and only got lost twice. Once in Wausau, wtf?) and had an absolute wonderful time. It made me all the more bummed out that this was my first time seeing ...

A little what what

I'm working a lot lately. Sweet, sweet paychecks, I guess. It looks like October might be a good month for me though. Despite threats of SCHEDULE FROM HELL! due to new computer system training, I...
