I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I am a 58 year old woman who lives in central California. I had gastric bypass surgery in October of 2005 and it has been a life-changing experience for me. I set up this site to share info with my friends and to make new friends as well. I have met some really great and interesting people.

My Interests

Music and Photography. And just going to the mountains and walking around. Not very exciting, eh?

I'd like to meet:

Just about anyone really. I think that people are very interesting. I'm not interested in a relationship at this time.

Music:

I grew up in the East Bay so am especially fond of Motown, Funk and Rythmn and Blues. I LOVE Tower of Power, Average White Band, Lakeside, The Gap Band. I also enjoy good Jazz/Fusion stuff like the Rippingtons and Fourplay. I also like some metal like Korn and Breaking Benjamin. I enjoy a good power ballad and sometimes when I am pissed off there is nothing like some heavy metal to heal the soul. I really do have an assortment of music though, ranging from Classical to New Age.

Movies:

Phantom of the Opera, Star Wars and Coneheads. I also like The Blues Brothers. Mars Attacks cracks me up.

Television:

I enjoy all the Law and Orders and the CSI's. I also like The Biggest Loser.

Books:

Who has time to read??? I'm always f*****g around on the computer!!!

Heroes:

Jim Henson, "Weird Al" Yankovic, Jerry Garcia, Mister Rogers, Sting, George Harrison, Neil Young, Bob Marley, James Brown, Martin Luther King

My Blog

Things don't suck as much today!!!!

Well things are looking up around here. I seemed to have snapped out of my depression for the moment which is good. Remind me not to run out of my Zoloft and to get it refilled!!! That was disastrous....

Well here it goes.......

Well I've never done a blog before. I don't have a very exciting life. I basically get up, drink my coffee while I read the paper and watch the Today Show. Then I get my butt in gear and go to work. I...
