About Me

Well, I'm now living in Raleigh, North Carolina and actually somewhat settled in after St. Michael's closed in Milwaukee and I was jobless! I work for the Duke Health System in the ICU, and so far so good. Eventually, I hope to go back to grad school. But, unfortunately I have no idea whether I'll be moving again or how long I'll be here in NC because the military is ridiculously unpredictable. We've now decided against reenlistment, so a little more stability is hopefully heading my way by the next three years of being in the reserves instead of active duty! I'm so proud of him and all my friends serving, as well as all the suckers in the same boat as me...who fell for someone in the military! North Carolina is so very different than Wisconsin, and I'm still attempting to get used to it. I only just now admitted to being a resident and had to give up my Wisconsin license and plates:( It looks like we'll be here at least another year, as I just signed a new lease to an awesome apartment. As always, that's just the plan...you never know when Uncle Sam going to come and change your plans for you! I miss my friends from home, and my family that's spread out across the country. Come visit me!

My Interests

Love traveling, working out (with my new ipod, thanks babe!), watching movies, talking to whoever will listen, and courtesy of miss Dee I really like guitar hero and want to get a playstation 2 and a pink guitar to rock out with my...

I'd like to meet:

Matthew McConaughey even though I'd drool all over myself if I actually saw him in person. I know it's a pathetic response, and apparently he's a hippie who doesn't wear deoderant but he's so damn gorgeous I can't help myself. Plus he's not afraid to booze it up and play drunken naked bongos. How ridiculously cool is that.

Music:

Mostly every type of music, that is unless it sucks.

Movies:

Dumb and Dumber...hands down. The Adam Sandler classics, Godfather, Super Troopers, Swingers, the Kill Bill's, Lady and the Tramp and Fox and the Hounddog, (don't pretend like you all don't watch disney movies still too) AND Of course I am known to sit by myself at home and watch Bridget Jones' diary with a bottle of wine and carton of ice cream without using a bowl or glass to consume them.

Television:

North Carolina gets two stations that I never had in Milwaukee and I'm addicted to them both. E! and FitTV. I'll watch any episode of Seinfeld and recite the whole thing. Sex and the City-own the entire set courtesy of Jenelle and Baghdad markets. p.s. How cool is it that I can say I own Saved by the Bell on DVD!!! More specifically ALL the seasons.

Books:

East of Eden's my all time favorite...big fan of all of Steinbeck. I enjoy mostly all the classics. Actually currently I'm reading War Letters by Andrew Carroll, so far so good. I just finished What Was Asked of Us by Trish Wood. Great book if you want an firsthand view of what's goin on in Iraq. I also just finished up Dear John by Nicholas Sparks-any book of his is guaranteed to make you cry if you have a soul especially if you're a crybaby like I have been lately! Otherwise I usually read books like Seizing the Enigma, a novel on the actual events of U-571 and obtaining the German Enigma mostly because I'm a nerd and like history and have wasted way too many Saturdays watching the history channel. Next is rereading Night by Elie Weisel. Great read and you can finish it in a day. Then maybe...Behind Enemy Lines, the additional book to War Letters.

Heroes:

Matthew McConahey in Reign of Fire when he takes his shirt off...DAMN HE CAN BE MY HERO ANYDAY!!! In reality, our troops and the families and friends behind them past, present, and future. No specific reason there... My family, there's been so much that's gone on with us and everyone's always pulled through. I guess anyone, because you never know just how awesome a person is until you've walked a lifetime in their shoes.
