About Me

I'm short, but then, everyone's got to have a hook, right? I like to think of myself as spunky, audacious, a bit out of the ordinary, and sometimes a little hard to take. If I can count you on my very short list of good friends, you know you always have someone in your corner. I tend to be private about things that should be private. I love my little family, I found the only man on earth that would be a wonderful husband to me, and he and I have a beautiful, happy son. Besides the little one, we have great jobs, a beautiful house, loving friends and family...What more could you ask for?

My Interests

playing with my son and husband, scrapbooking, selling Avon, clogging, designing a website for my clogging group

I'd like to meet:

My family...I love them, I've lived with them as kids, but I'd like to get to know them as adults. You should, too...they're all on my Friends List! I have a brother who is a new father, a college student, and better take good care of his wife! I have a brother who is aspiring to be a Wall Street tycoon, married to a woman who takes care of him but doesn't take his "schtuff". I have a brother who is an amazing musician, making some great strides in the industry. I have a brother who is not only a starving college student (SEND HIM FOOD!) but a very talented photographer...I'll be framing and displaying his work in my home if I ever get it (*hint*). I have a brother who is so talented at getting people to employ him it should be illegal; he's also very funny! I have a sister who sometimes cares too much for her own good, and that's what I love about her and what makes her so tragic. But you see? There has to be more to these people than just this!

Music:

Anything I can sing along with (but no screams, I hate the screaming stuff!)

Movies:

I'm a huge movie fan, it's rare that I don't like a movie, but my favorite genres are romantic comedies, comedies, and animated films.

Television:

Lost, Surface, the Closer, CSI, Law and Order SVU, Smallville, Battlestar Gallactica

Books:

Terry Pratchett, Terry Goodkind, Clive Cussler, and all the classics

Heroes:

My Momma for the crap she put up with to turn me into an adult, my Dad for the courage to be himself, my brother Stu for finding happiness, my brother Paul for actually graduating college, my brother Rob for living his dream, my brother Thomas for going after what he wants, my brother Pete for remaining sane in this crazy world, and my sister Katie for remaining kind and generous despite what life has thrown her. My husband, for the father he is and the husband he continues to be. My best friend Kaitlyn for sticking it out, trying to make it work.

Furious

My infant son was sick over the weekend with a fairly common baby bug that's also fairly contagious, yet blows over within 5 days.  Started Friday, saw the doc on Monday, who said to keep him hom...

Yes, I know that after handling raw peppers, such as jalapenos, you should wash your hands before you touch anything.  This is because it's not the "juice" of the pepper on your hands, it's the o...

Duuude, that sucked...

So, I've never been in a car accident before...seen a bunch, but never experienced one.  And you always fantasize, when someone is a jerk and a hazard on the road, how you'll react if /when they ...

Yum...

I just love cilantro.  The smell, the flavor...just takes me to this incredible happy place.  It brightens up a dish with its vibrant green (and please don't be one of those people who uses ...
