About Me

I live in Durham, NC. I am originally from WI which you could most likely figure out by my accent (sadly). I work in upscale retail...and well it kicks your ass but the paychecks treat you well. lol! I do what most people my age do. I love eating at Elmo's with April, going to the bars with the ladies, and relaxing with my lovely LP Carrie. I have a passion for eating so if you ever get me angry bring me something delicious and I am likely to forgive and forget. I also love shopping as most girls do. To add to the things I love I love Duke!!!!!!... Meredith: "You don't get to call me a whore. When I met you, I thought I had found the person that I was going to spend the rest of my life with. I was done! All the boys and all the bars and all the obvious daddy issues, who cares? I was done. You left me. You chose Addison. I'm all glued back together now. I make no apologies for how I chose to repair what you broke. You don't get to call me a whore." “We’re all damaged it seems, some of us more then others. We carry the damage with us from childhood then as grown-ups we give as good as we get. Ultimately we all do damage and then we set about the business of fixing whatever we can.”- Meredith “Grey’s Anatomy” "...no.. i've decided you are no longer a wisconsinite youve been away from the nest too long.. and forgot where you came from and who we cherish here.. ur an east coast girl now.. lost forever in the sea of fashion and homosexual boyfriends who give out apartment keys."-Vince on my new life in NC "One day you're going to wake up and realize how much you care about me and when that day comes I'll be waking up with the guy that already knew."I edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!

"She's the worst kind she's high maintenance but she thinks she's low maintenance."- When Harry Met Sally "Why does everything I bring into this bedroom have a flaw?"- Miranda "Sex in the City" “My mother's dead she got cancer when I was ten and she suffered for a really long time and then she died and my father never recovered it was kind of like he died with her except that his body is above ground and permanently placed in front of the tv with a bottle of scotch in his lap the last woman I slept with was my wife but she died too it was a car crash though it was quick and she didn’t suffer which I appreciated don’t worry I’m thinking that my luck is beginning to change because I’ve met you and you like dogs and you enjoy pony births and you have the ability to save lives I never said I wasn’t scary and damaged too.”- "Grey's Anatomy" "That was flirting...sometimes it comes out mean."- J.L.D "Whoa, your hand is monsterous!" "Well what did you expect you've seen my penis."- How I Met Your Mother "Those flowers were supposed to say we love you we're sorry not you're dead let's disco."- Sex in the City "Everything looks better when you've dimmed the lights and drank a bottle of champagne."- Ugly Betty
