About Me

I grew up mostly in northern Illinois but I've traveled all over the US. I also lived a few years in Seattle where I became a coffee fiend and learned what true traffic is. Ahh, I miss it. Hopefully I'll visit soon!True to my need for change, I now live in Arizona. Neverending sunshine!I am an insurance claims specialist and office administrator for a prosthetics and orthotics company. Although I spend a great deal of time dealing with health insurance companies, my work is unique and rewarding.Some day I might use on of my degrees and teach or get into neuropsychological research.I must admit I am not exactly ordinary.I have been referred to as a chameleon because I switch from one thing to another pretty rapidly. I guess you could say I get bored easily. Either that, or I've just had my daily dose of sugar & caffeine. (:HOT Myspace LayoutsMyspace Contact Tables

Television:

I try to catch The Class and Criminal Minds. I've also gotten hooked on Grey's Anatomy. I keep up on all of the essential reality shows like America's Next Top Model, American Idol, and Beauty & The Geek when they're on. Sex & the City, Will & Grace, and King of Queens are rerun shows I never bypass. I must confess I've been staying up late to catch Craig Ferguson. Welcome back, you naughty little donkeys! I also love TEeN TItAnS. GO!

Books:

I'm always reading something. I've just finished Dear John but I'm still working on The Pursuit of Happyness and slowly getting through Theodore Rex. I'm drooling over a book about music and the mind (*hint*hint*). My all-time favorites are To Kill A Mockingbird & The Notebook but I also love Stephanie Plum novels.

Heroes:

“A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles.”~ Christopher Reeve
