I'm like the head cheerleader at Adairs

About Me

I like fun. I like live music, going out, Jack Daniels, the Dallas Mavericks (WAY before we were ever in the finals), dark corners, guitars, my sweet nephew, sugar cookies, my CDs, a cold diet coke, my pillow, dinner at my parents on a Sunday night in the country, a day off of work, hanging out in the green room at poor davids, roadtrips, and sleeping late. +++++++++ Get Your Own! | View Slideshow
