Oh, that bitch?

About Me

My favorite things: Jerrad, Jellydog, my friends & family, reading, watching movies, writing, wine, playing board games (yes I'm a dork), hiking, camping, or if it's nice outside, grilling and drinking beer - or margaritas - or Patron. My favorite season of the year? Football season! Specifically the WVU Mountaineers and the Pittsburgh Steelers!

My Interests

I spent 13 fairly stressful years working in the social work / mental health field - then I spent about two years working as the secretary for my parish - and now I'm back to social work. Sigh. Why can't I quit you?

I'd like to meet:

People who don't annoy me. If you know people that aren't annoying, you should totally hook me up.

Music:

I like music.

Movies:

I love movies! This is in no way a complete list of favorites - Juno, Superbad, Anchorman, Wedding Crashers, 40 Year Old Virgin, Talladega Nights, the Lord of the Rings trilogy, the Harry Potter movies, Star Wars (all of them, even the new ones), The Princess Bride, Goonies, Napolean Dynamite, Clueless, Labyrinth, all the James Bond movies but especially the Sean Connery ones, all horror movies, any of the brat pack movies from the 80's, and of course romantic comedies.

Television:

Shows we record and never miss: Lost, Fringe, Trueblood, Sarah Connor Chronicles, Weeds, Tudors, Dexter, Ghost Hunters, Paranomral State, SupernannyI also like: anything on HGTV, Daily Show, Colbert Report, Seinfeld, South Park, Family Guy, game shows, and old sitcoms like Cheers. I like to watch shows on DVD - you don't have to wait for the next episode and no commercials.

Books:

I will read anything but I really like science fiction, fantasy, historical fiction, and the classics. Seriously, how many times do I have to explain that I am a huge dork? I really like the Shannara books by Terry Brooks, and anything by Gregory Maguire, but especially Wicked. I love reading blogs, but there are so many good ones out there I don't have time to read them all. I am always reading a book - the book I'm reading now: Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer. I cannot put it down. Thank God I ordered the whole series at one time...

Heroes:

Hmm, it's hard to get the caseworker out of your system... people who at least *try* to be good parents - here are some examples - women who don't use drugs when they're pregnant, women who don't pick the guy who beats them up or their sex offender boyfriend or their meth habit over their kids, anyone who doesn't shake their baby or beat the crap out of their kids instead of learning some damn parenting. Seriously, there are classes if you can't figure it out yourself...

Facebook is Freaking Me Out

Ok, ok, I finally bowed to the peer pressure and signed up for Facebook.  I have no fucking clue what is going on over there.  I can't figure out how to do anything yet.  I took some br...

I Know, I Know...

I'm a total slacker.  I can't remember the last time I went this long between blogs.  I was inspired on my vacation, but my dad's computer was so jacked up that there was no way I could deal...
