truth be told

About Me

a bona fide chicago girl.. pretty laid back, sweet, intelligent lady. I am goal oriented, love my family very much, treat people with the respect and courtesy they deserve. I enjoy both the finer and the simpler things in life. I work hard but I also like to play and laugh hard.. ok ok guilty as charged.. been working a little too much and playing less. Consider myself to be fairly reasonable - although I am a little stubborn at times, I'd even say feisty ;) The best newest little addition in my life is puppy - Chewy!!

My Interests

Traveling, live music, historical biographies, salsa dancing, hanging out, working out, antiques, shoes, ballet, theater, laughing til I cry, fishing, boxing, fashion, old cars, collecting records, playing gee-tah..

I'd like to meet:

intelligent, cool, fun people.. different people.. artsy people.. people who don't live and breathe in the same sentence.. who don't judge people without giving them a fair shot. ..i love and respect down to the bone, honest, good hearted..
