Let's see - about me... I'm an animal nut who works at the Humane Society. Lots of people ask me if it's a tough job - it is but we have our good days and our bad, like any other job I guess. I love my job - most of the time I come home feeling like I've made a little bit of a difference - I love days that are filled with pet adoptions and animals being returned to their owners. And a huge perk is that sometimes I get to take animals home to foster them for awhile, if they're sick or something. So I usually have a few fosters, then I have two cats, my roommate has two cats - so our apartment is full of cats.I also recently adopted a dog that I had been fostering for about 8 months. She's a Yorkshire Terrier mix named Princess Sophia (How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days anyone? LOL). She was seized from a neglectful home that had 89 little dogs just like her. Because many of the dogs were pregnant, my shelter ended up with a total of 109 of them. Since the court case was pending, I could only foster her but the case was finally settled and I was able to adopt her on January 19th :)
I'm really into reading. I had stopped reading for a LONG time (except for the occasional Harry Potter book) until I read Twilight in Dec of 2005. Now I read a lot of young adult and paranormal romance (mostly vampire related). In the time that I wasn't reading much, I was movie obsessed (but working for four different video store chains will do that to you) and I have what some have described as an encyclopedic knowledge of film. I'm really not bragging, I can't help that I just remember completely useless information and then sometimes can't remember my own name

Lyrics
"I know you'll come in the night like a thief
But I've had some time alone to hold my lies inside me
I know you think that I'm someone you can trust
But I'm scared I'll get scared and I swear I'll try to nail you back up
So do you think that we could work out a sign
So I'll know it's you and that it's over so I won't even try
I know you'll come for the people like me
But we all got wood and nails
Tongue tied to a hating factory" - Brand New, Jesus Christ
" I died for you one time but never again" - Brand New, Limousine
"God I love to turn my little blue world upside down
God I love to turn my little blue world upside down
Inside my head the noise
Chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter
You see I'm afraid I'll always be
Still coming out of my mother upside down
Don't you love to turn this little blue girl upside down
Oh I know you love to turn this little blue girl baby upside down
But my heart it says
You been shatter, shatter, shatter, shatter, shattered
And I know you're still a boy
Still coming out of your mother" - Tori Amos, Upside Down
"I saw your flag on the marble arch
And love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
Hallelujah..." - Leonard Cohen, Hallelujah
"I read more maps than books
Feel like every change to leave is another chance I should have took
Every minute is a mile" - Brand New, I Will Play My Games Beneath The Spin Light
