My name's Liz, I was born in Winthrop MA, and lived there until I was 18. I graduated from Winthrop High School in 2000. Raised some hell back in the day with some of the best friends I've ever been lucky enough to find, and keep. Now I'm settled down, and plan on staying that way for a long long time. I got engaged on 12/22/06 - my fiances name is Pete, he's amazing. He's funny, honest, intelligent, handsome, and chivalrous. One of the few real gentlemen left, and I happened to just be lucky enough to find him. We've been together since 11/06/04 and it's been the happiest time of my life.
We just bought a 2 family house up in North Andover - come visit sometime! I also have an awesome family that I'm really close with, and a tight group of friends that I love to pieces. As for me, I'm the nicest, friendliest person in the world until you disrespect me, or worse, disrespect or hurt my friends or family. Then I'm not so nice, to put it mildly. In short, I love my life, and love the people (and animals!) I surround myself with.
I volunteer for a local rescue group as a foster home. At any given time there are usually random dogs or kittens at my house. So far, we have fostered about 80 dogs and found them wonderful forever families, and about 50 cats as well.
In addition to fostering, we have 11 pets of our own right now...our own mini zoo ;)
First is Lucy, our 3 yr old English Yellow Lab, who's amazing! She's a big ball of wiggly excitement, and loves everyone and everything. She knows a lot of cool tricks, and will do them all for you if you give her a treat! She's a typical Lab - loves water, food, playing with sticks, and did I mention food? She loves playing with Molly and the ferrets, and loves our cats.
Our 2nd dog is an 1 year old Shepherd/Collie/Lab mix (we think?!) named Molly. We adopted her from the rescue that we now foster for, and she's an awesome dog. She's a cuddle bug, a sweetie, and Lucy and her are best friends. Molly is obsessed with tennis balls and would play fetch every minute of every day if you'd let her.
Abby is our 3rd (and LAST!) dog. We adopted her when she was 12 weeks old....we fostered her and her littermates, and couldn't let her go. She is officially our first "foster failure" :) Abby is 9 months old now, and we think she is some sort of lab mix....but she's tiny. Who knows?We have 4 cats - Cheddar, Linea, Magic and Maya. Cheddar and Linea were adopted from down in Tennessee, and Magic and Maya came from Feline Friends in NH. We just lost our cat Maximus to complications with FIV - we miss him so much. RIP Maxi-moo.
Here is Cheddar, who is about 9 months old now. Cheddar loves to cuddle with the dogs, and thinks that he IS a dog. He loves to give kisses and head bumpies.

Now for Linea. Linea is 8 months old, and is our little brat. We got her name from an episode of Stargate Sg-1. Linea was a charter on the show that they called "The Destroyer of Worlds". It fits our cat pretty well. She likes to steal food and scowl at you when you try to stop her. She likes being held and purrs like a motor boat when you pet her.

Magic is about 1 year old and we just adopted her in December 07 from Feline Friends in NH. Magic was found outside with her litter of kittens. Originally they thought that she lost the tops of her ears to frostbite, but upon closer examination they believe that someone actually cut them off. Magic is a sweet girl, and loves human attention - she is still getting used to our hectic, animal filled house :)
Maya is a 12 week old kitten who is the friendliest cat ever! We adopted her along with Magic, and we couldn't be happier with our choices :) She loves giving kisses, playing with anything and anyone, and laying in the sun. Maya's favorite game is playing in cardboard boxes.
Maya and Pete <3

We also have 5 ferrets...Villain, Rogue, LG, Wolverine and Noodle. We lost our oldest and dearest ferret Hero right before Christmas 2007, due to kidney failure. We miss her so much :(
RIP Hero
Villain is a 2 yr old male Silver ferret
Wolverine is a 3 yr old dark sable ferret
Rogue is a 1 year old male blaze ferret, who is deaf.
LG is a huge 1 year old male ferret
and Noodle is the baby of the group, about 4 months old, and female
I have a ton of pictures of my pets in my picture section, if you want to check them out :)
So basically, I have a myspace profile to keep in touch with people I'm already friends with - certainly not to use it as a dating service, or see if I can collect 23,483 friends on my list, as some do. I'd also love to find people I've lost touch with. If you want to add me as a friend, and you're NOT a band I've never heard of, go for it - just send me a message first and say hi.
