Life is full of surprises...I hate surprises, especially when they surprise me!

About Me

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Dark tree - Image Hosting

I love meeting interesting people...my definition of interesting, not yours. The west was calling my name and but it appears that a bit of change has reared it's head. I love to travel to places described as "dangerous" by those who have been there before me. I adore my friends and don't waste time on people who are bad for me or who have hurt me. I sleep too little and drink way too much wine... I look forward to 7 feet of snow (not that Cincinnati gets it)....I can't wait for my feet to freeze because they have been in my boots too long... I can't stand Tri-state drivers... Did I mention I like wine? I want to get my masters sooner than later.I have had the opportunity to meet my nephew and see him get through a very rough first year. Now, I am in the process of finding employment while living in the UK...The Alps are only a few hours away (think I can handle that). I have finally met my "one" and nothing seems out of reach... I love life, 'bout sums it up. Oh and I am rarely late...

My Interests

Biking, hiking, snowboarding, anything that ends in "ing"

I'd like to meet:

the person who is going to give me a job in England...

Music:

I love all types, that is why I am here, to get some good music! I still love the jam bands. At one point in my life, I spent a little time on the road with Mr. Garcia. I have hung out with Jeff Tweedy and Jay Farrar. And a good live show still makes me a little giddy.

Movies:

I like a good thriller, a good chase, a little heavey gunfire and of course some romance. I am a girl so there are times when the story will get the best of me and make me cry. And if you make fun of me for that, I will pick you up and throw you through my front window and laugh about it with my friends later on that same evening

Television:

I really get confused by British tele, especially the "after 8" rule...

Books:

Anything with large print and silly pictures. Oh...and maps. I love when they include maps!

Heroes:

simple...but they are my heroes and i would like to keep them that way :)

My Blog

Snowboarding trip 2008

Looks as if the choice to move to the UK will pay off on a different level than expected. The plan was for a certain somebody to come to the states end of January to do a quick trip to Tahoe and ...
