I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I love to have a busy schedule, to learn, to try new food, experience new things, travel, read both new and old books, watch TV and movies, play with my dogs and cats, drink Diet Dr. Pepper, run, surf through myspace and find old friends. I hate cleaning, being forced to do anything, fighting, and the sad fact that, my Dad was right, money does NOT grow on trees. I'm a perpetual worrier, a hoarder of all things sentimental, a complete sucker for anything soft and fluffy, and will always want to make people feel safe and secure and loved.

My Interests

I love to read and watch movies. I LOVE to travel--I am going to NYC with my Ash Girls in November, and hopefully on a cruise sometime in June 2008. My goal is to someday backpack across Europe and down through Africa. I like to cook, but I hate cleaning. I enjoy playing some video games--World of Warcraft, Guitar Hero, and Wii Sports, although I'll never love them as much as my husband.

I'd like to meet:

Someone willing to fund a global traveling adventure...any takers?? : )I edited my profile at SpaceGravy.com , check out these Myspace Layouts!

Do you ever find yourself singing Ice Cube's "Today was a good Day" and then shake your head in sadness because Ice Cube is no longer a pimp, but an actor in movies like "Are we there yet?" It's been ...

Saturdays are the best

I'm feeling better today--still a little head-achey, but the sore throat seems to have gone. I slept for forever this morning and only got up when the dogs were wining to go out. We have to go do yard...
