.:About Me:. i'm just a girl who loves her life. i love my husband, i love to design, i love to paint, i love my house, i love my job, and my friends totally rock. i'm working on making my house look cute, my yard look cute, myself look cute. i love TV, KFC/PJs/Movie night with my friends, hanging out, laughing, playing RockBand, playing board games. i like to have a rum and coke and a cigar from time to time. There's nothing better than John's BBQing. i love new plants on my patio - and when i finally water them, its cool to see them come back to life. Yikes... i love being random.. i like the dot dot dot thing. i also like smiley faces. i love lowercase i's, but i love lowercase g's even more...the one with the 2 circles connected not the one that looks like a lowercase y. i'm always looking for a new project. i'm pretty clutzy, i'm pretty random... but i think i already said that. i'm a little too silly but its fun. i like coupons even though i don't use them.. and i love free stuff. i'm interested in "going green" - even though i'm still trying to figure out what that means. Gas prices suck, mean people suck and i hate people who are impatient...and people that forget to have fun. but that's the way the world goes right now. i love music, i love to dance, i like to freestyle rap.. even though i'm not good at it... but my hubby is and its much cooler to watch him. i think it would be cool to beatbox .. but its hard to do.. i've tried it and its not working out for me. i don't talk on my cell phone much.. and somehow i never have any minutes. i love to text.. but it cost 10 cents every time i do it. i love myspace.. but i wish i played on it more. i love run on sentences and sentence fragments. i type how i talk, but i'm not that good at talkin, i need a bigger vocabulary and an even bigger attention span cause... i'm really distracted by this SNL skit of the Japanese version of The Office. its pretty funny.. :)

.:Stuffs:. You should really draw me somethin :)

Music:

Music and I get along real well. For the most part, I know the lyrics to every song ever made. I love to rap. But I can't freestyle. I also used to be a raver a few years ago for like 3 years. I have been to about 60+ parties in Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin, and Houston. I loved it!! I got to say that was some of the best times of my life. I wouldn't ever trade those times for the world.

Television:

I soooo love watching TV. I know its lazy but I can't help it! Like Beavis, I need TV! Plus I have to yell at the TV and throw stuff at it. Its weird but that's me. If someone is being stupid on the TV, they will have something thrown at them. Guaruntee!

Heroes:

Um - like cape and mask? or like do gooders? As far as heros go, I'm not sure who specifically to name drop. But I do respect people of the arts - designers, advertisers of print and comercials. I love comercials! Especially good ones that are creatively done. I respect singers and actors and people who have the guts to make a fool of themselves.. like the bad singers of the world who think they sing well. Even the ones that know they can't sing but do it anyway and the people who can't dance that think they kick ass. I respect my family and my friends. I respect those who know who they are and aren't scared to be themselves. I respect the over weight people at the pool and especially the ones in the gym. I have many people who I aspire to be but no one person in particular...
~My Quizes & Surveys~ Quizes and Surveys are kinda fun to take. Its like your horoscope in a way. You get to know a little more about yourself when your finished.
