I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm a Registered Nurse (RN) in Labor & Delivery and in Plastic Surgery (OR & Recovery Room). My background is in Critical Care, Health Sciences & IT. Live in SF practically all of my life and have close family members in the area. I am a pretty hyper, fun chic who's spunky, passionate;an individual that's into books, music, movies, shopping, comedy, shows/theatre, computers/internet, outdoor activities or gym, travel, home improvement and decorating as well as hanging out with my family & friends and pets when at all possible (shuffle lineup PRN). I'm sort of a perfectionist when it comes to many things; I enjoy intelligent conversation and appreciate the important things in life. Things can be pretty intense sometimes but I like to hang out and veg whenever possible-I'm a Scorpio :0) and to know me is to love me. Cheers and look forward to meeting you...

My Interests

Too many too count-tell me if you have any cool interests; Some of my favorites happen to be career, music, books, home & family, pets, outdoor activities, aviation,motorcycles and autos;vacations or fun trips like spontaneous drives or such with my man, my crew etc. Not all are necessarily in the above mentioned order, however at any given time (should not be- LOL).

I'd like to meet:

Old friends, new friends. People that are interesting, intelligent and passionate about life and living it to the fullest.

Music:

Pretty much like anything but some hard core country/religious music or stuff that's otherwise considered to be wasted noise (like it makes no sense, is annoying or otherwise stinks in other ways); it usually ends up just giving you a headache-like most elevator music or ???

Movies:

I like too many movies to name and enjoy many genres.

Television:

I don't like watching that much TV but like ER,American Chopper, Mythbusters,The Simpsons, Southpark,King of the Hill,The Family Guy, American Idol (sometimes), and pretty much enjoy watching the specials on Discovery & Discovery Health Channels.

Books:

I don't even know where to start...too many to name

Heroes:

My best friend, my sister, mom, uncle and my grandparents; Florence Nightengale and my other nursing colleagues. Anyone who is an inspiration to others (but not a fanatic lunatic).
