About Me...hmmmm....What do I say...I've moved past the big "50" and am heading full steam ahead to 52 in June and I'm not very happy about it. I've been married for 32 years now and am very happy about that. I've got a great life. A great hubby and great kids, great friends and I live in a fantastic city. My husband and I have our own business (28 years now) and so we spend a LOT of time together. I love to go to the movies...and I mean go to the movies. I love the previews and can be very nasty when I miss them. I read tons, crochet, watch lots of TV (especially reality shows and soap operas) when I can find the time. I am an avid Jazzerciser getting up at 4:30 am 5 days a week (I know you can't tell it on the pic but trust me) and love to play ClubPogo online.

My Interests

Again I LOVE to read when I have the time and so I buy a lot of books.I also LOVE music. I have over 1,000 CD's in my collection from Opera to Rap to Big Band to Heavy Metal. I really don't have much like for Country Music though sometimes I find myself listening to it to get a break from the replay of the radio stations of hit tunes. I will buy a new CD of someone I really like and play it over and over and over and over again.I do a little crocheting, mainly baby things because they are small and I lose interest in them and tend not to finish the project.I LOVE to play games online...like ClubPOGO...I'm obscessed.I would also like to write when I find the time to get my thoughts down on paper. I'm not good but I like it anyway. I've written in a journal for many years now and have a blog.I love cats but am living without one for the time being. One of these days I will be a happy cat owner again. I will have to be satisfied with my canary and parakeet.

I'd like to meet:

I would like to meet Kevin Griffin of Better Than Ezra....I LOVE his voice. Can never get tired of listening to him and the band. I saw them once and it was amazing. Hey Kev...Tom Pelphrey...Fabulous actor!

Music:

This would be a difficult for me since I love so much music. Right now I'm into Big Band music. I don't know why since I used to hate it but I love it now. I have lots of favorite CD's...My very favorite group is Better Than Ezra...LOVE THEM!!!!! Peter Mayer - Green Eyed Radio (know him personally, sorta), Chris Rea, Chris Botti, Linkin Park, Eagles, Craig Armstrong, David Gray, Lifehouse, John Mayer, Alice In Chains, Duncan Sheik, America (Holiday album), Toad The Wet Sprocket...this is just to name a few of my fav's

Movies:

My favorites: The Goonies, Under The Tuscan Sun, Raintree County, Cat On A Hot Tin Roof, Harry Potter (all), Lord of the Rings (all), Cronicles of Narnia, To Sir With Love, Wild Orchid, The Matrix, Penny Seranade, I Remember Mama...just to name a few...

Television:

This should be very easy...The Waltons and The Andy Griffith Show are my all time favorites. Next would be Fraiser which I watch every night. I also love Charmed, Angel, Two and a Half Men, Survivor, Law & Order (all), Big Brother, The Food Network, and the TLC channel medical shows, heck just reality shows in general. I love and have watched the soaps Guiding Light and As The World Turns which started when I was probably 6 years old with my mother.

Books:

I LOVE all books....but my favorite author is Stuart Woods and Janet Evanovich. Stuart Woods first novel, Chiefs is my all time favorite book. It is a MUST read. Everybody I recommend the book too can't put it down when they start. Excellent read.
