About Me

What do you want to know? I'm doing the full-time job, career thing right now and, outside of those 40 hours a week, basically do as much singing as I possibly can - I am the theater and karaoke queen. The advantage of having said full-time job is that I'm a homeowner (well, condo owner) and live in said home with my adoring (and adorable) fiancee, Greg, our dog, Bert, and bunny rabbit, Dorie. Life is pretty alright these days.

My Interests

I love doing lots of different things - watching movies (real theater or home theater - and we have a good one), listening to music, reading, typical stuff. I even do the outdoor thing on occasion (hiking, camping, whitewater rafting, what have you), though I'd hardly claim to be "outdoorsy". But my favorite hobby is doing local musical theater - I may never be a professional, but I can have a good time coming close. In between theater projects, I am the karaoke queen!

Music:

I like all types, but have to admit a weakness for pop and I loves my showtunes (we have season tickets to the Broadway series in Cincinnati). In the past few years, I've started to recognize my growing love for more alternative/modern rock and have very recently discovered the wonder that is My Chemical Romance.

Movies:

I'm a sucker for a giant summer blockbuster (can't be helped) and I've also been a Disney freak from way back. I also get really into a lot of the Indy fare, but can't seem to get into the more high-falutin' epics (Brokeback Mountain? Whatev.) a whole lot.

Television:

I love TV.......'nuff said. Tivo is the greatest invention ever made. We recently ditched cable (I have always born a severe hatred for the money-sucking monolith that is Time Warner Cable) in favor of DirecTV satellite - I'm weeping with joy over the fact that we finally have HDTV, and for a reasonable price, no less.

Books:

I love a variety. Girlie type books will be on my list for months until I decide it's time to switch to Stephen King, Dean Koontz-y stuff for a while, or anything in between. I'm sorry, but no Lord of the Rings, please. Reading that stuff is about as enjoyable as trying to read a technical manual. I'm also a sucker for a book on tape - not only can I "read" two books at once (one on CD in my car, and one on paper before bed) but these days a good story seems to entertain me more than music whilst drivin' in my car.

Best Week Ever

Ok, so maybe it was closer to the best TWO weeks ever, but you get the idea. February 14 -- during a very low-key Valentine's evening (just slightly fancier than normal dinner and hanging out - G...

Four weeks

Four weeks from this very moment, I will be in a bikini, chilling on the Lito deck of the biggest cruise ship on the ocean, sipping on the biggest, fruitiest umbrella drink I can get my hands on. ...

A game of tag

Amy Lee tagged me because my, and I quote, "birthday is coming up".  Fair enough and I'm honored to be chosen.  I can't guarantee these will be all that creative, but I'll give it a shot. Ru...

Hmph

I'm grumpy and overwhelmed by feelings of annoyance.  I'm not going into detail, because I'll probably offend about a hundred people in the process, but I just felt the need to express.  I'm...
