My Interests

My wonderful, funny and generous boyfriend, my teenage daughters (17 & 19), my newest edition to the household an 11-year-old stepdaughter and my hugable and hilarious dogs - three of them now. I enjoy music and movies, visiting with friends and family. I don't like the club/bar scene, but will go occasionally if a good live band is playing. I enjoy art and travel as well.

I'd like to meet:

Dalai Lama - I've already attended one of his talks, but it would be cool to meet him face to face. He has a wonderful sense of humor which is something I can really appreciate in a person.

Music:

I like a wide variety of music from rock to classical music. Don't care for country or most rap. Some favorites: Sting, Dave Matthews, Jewel, Mozart, Metallica, Black Eyed Peas and Big Bad Voodoo Daddys. Michael Buble and Tom Jones are hot! Oh, and let's not forget Justin Timberlake *blushing*. If you don't know who Richard Cheese is, check him out, he is funny!

Movies:

I love movies! All time favorite is Blues Brothers. Also enjoy martial arts movies.

Television:

Medium, Project Runway, America's Next Top Model, Ghost Hunters and Top Chef.

Books:

I love books! Currently reading Anderson Cooper's "Dispatches from the Edge". A past favorite is "The Time Traveler's Wife". Also enjoy forensic anthropology mysteries.

Heroes:

All of our US military personnel past and present and that includes my dad who was in the Navy in the South Pacific in 1942.
