About Me

If you are reading this far I am impressed. I know it is the first line but a lot of people just look at pictures then send "friend requests". If you are that person, STOP IT! If I don't know you don't you think you should at least introduce yourself? Send me an email for starters, huh?Now, about me...I told someone I was shy in earshot of a good friend and thought she would pee her pants she laughed so hard. I have decided I am not shy, just reserved around people I first meet in person. Once I get to know you, I don't shut up. Well, not exactly but then you will see that I can be goofy and like to just have fun.I am an adventurous, spontaneous girl who loves to camp, cook, dance, hike, laugh, play darts, and go to concerts. I like pretty much anything outdoors, whether that means beach-combing at the ocean, hiking in the mountains or people-watching in the city.I have a list of "things to do before you die" that I have been working on. I add things to the list and complete tasks as time goes on. If you have any interesting ideas for my list, let me know.------------------------------------------------------- ----------------

My Interests

Since we live in Washington the weather doesn't always cooperate but when it is nice I want to be doing something outdoors. I can't say that I only like to be outside in nice weather because winter sports are fun and I like to play in the rain, too. As for going out, I love the Ale House, the Swiss, Jazz Bones and some little dive bars for darts. I love the beach, Kalaloch is one of my favorites but Ocean Shores and Westport will do in a pinch. As for vacation, Australia hopefully someday but Alaska for 2007.

I'd like to meet:

In general, interesting people who make me laugh, make me think or both. I really like to reconnect with people that I haven't heard from in a while. I am working on a skydiver's reunion so if you use to skydive at Blue Skies in Shelton, contact me.

Music:

I like alternative music mostly. Some of my favorite bands are System of a Down, Queens of the Stone Age, Jack Johnson, and a local favorite, Jude Bowerman (his older stuff is my favorite).

Television:

MEN IN TREES!!!, Grey's Anatomy, Ellen, Survivor, One Tree Hill, ER, Amazing Race, The Shield, Law & Order...

Books:

I read so much that I couldn't list all of my favorites. I like mystery/detective type books.
