Welcome To My Wonderland

About Me

Hey everyone! I'm just a friendly, fun-loving, pale chick from California. Pale and from California? Yup, this native Californian is pale and that's just fine with me! ;0)Unless I know you, we share mutual friends or you're from a group we both frequent, I ask that you send me a message first before friend requesting me.

My Interests


I'm into many different things. Also hanging out with friends or my family. Laughing, I love to laugh and make people laugh.I'm also big into Phantom of the Opera, Dark Shadows, Disney, Alice in Wonderland, vampires and Pirates of the Caribbean.

I'd like to meet:



adopt your own virtual pet!

Music:

I like a variety of music: 80's music, classic rock, musical theatre, some movie soundtracks, Disney, Jimmy Buffet, The Beatles and Elvis! I also love celtic music, renaissancey-type stuff: Enya, Loreena Mckennit and Sarah Brightman; she has definitely come a long way since being in the Phantom of the Opera!

Movies:

Oh, my goodness, where do I begin? I have such a variety here too! From classics to modern and somewhere in between. I'm one of those kinds of people that actually enjoys watching a classic, older movie and then will follow it up with a modern movie. I'm weird that way! I'll admit I like some chick flicks, but only if it's done well and is actually funny. Like for example, Love Actually. It's really good and funny too! I of course am a big Pirates of the Caribbean fan, those movies are awesome! My first movie that I played the hell out of as a little kid was Wizard of Oz. We had just got a Beta machine; remember those? It came on tv the one day, I taped it and then my sister and I would play it over and over again! I'm sure my parents kicked themselves for teaching us how to record stuff-lol! I also discovered Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. I taped that and played it along with the Wizard of Oz repeatedly. Yup, we drove our family nuts-lol! I also loved some of the movies that came out of the 80s like Return to Oz, Labyrinth, Goonies, Princess Bride and so on. I love Mel Brooks! His movies are awesome!

Television:

I like a variety of stuff. From older shows like: Dark Shadows to some newer stuff like Everybody Loves Raymond. TV Land and Nick at Nite have so much cool stuff! I also love Roseanne; a classic and written so well! I also love cartoons, but more of the older stuff. Only a few of the newer shows like Family Guy. I miss the way Saturday morning cartoons used to be when I was a kid in the 80s. They're just not the same anymore.

Books:

I'm not huge into reading, but certain things do spark my interest. I have read all the Lemony Snicket books. I read the original novel of Gaston Leroux's Phantom of the Opera. I then discovered Susan Kay's Phantom, which is by far one of the best stories I've ever read! I read Lewis Carrol's Alice in Wonderland quite often as a kid. I still like that story a lot! I've read some of Stephen King's novels: IT, Pet Semetary, Christine and The Shining. I also read a lot of Dean R. Koontz's stuff and the original Bram Stoker's Dracula. Horror seems to hold my interest better. Or if not horror, just weird stuff like the Lemony Snicket books....bizarre!

Heroes:

The relationship of Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell is interesting to me. They've been together, without being married, since 1983. I find that amazing! But who do I consider a hero? Hmmmm...well, someone who isn't a hypocrite! I can't stand phoney people! There seems to be a lot of people like that...
