It’s hard to steer when you’re breathing in my ear, But I got both hands on the wheel while you

About Me

"The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war." - Douglas MacArthur
Let's see .... I'm a native San Diegan, but have been living down in the south for a little over 3 yrs now (I can't believe it's already been that long!). I'm always going to be a Cali girl at heart Richard . I love him more than anything & he means the world to me. I love my stalker! (lol, inside joke)- He's currently on his 3rd deployment & 2nd OIF tour =( I'm a mama to 2 beautiful, furry, 4 legged runts who are my sunshine. They make me smile on those days when nothing else will.
I'm a music fiend, an amateur chef, a shameless goofball, and devoted wife. Love to entertain. My home is always filled with good food, great friends, and plenty of laughs I miss my friends and family back home, but sometimes it's nice to have a break, right? lol. J/k, I miss you guys! Have been working and going to school to earn my teaching degree. Someday, I will be molding the minds of future voting Americans. Scary,huh? bwahahahaha.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:



Your mom

You Belong in San Diego
Laid back and friendly, you were meant to live most of your life on the beach.
You usually think everything is "all good"... except when the weather dips under 60F.
You stay classy - especially when you're in Tijuana! Where Does Your Inner Californian Belong?

Erica --

Movies:
