About Me

So, I've been here in Missouri for over six months now. I've shocked even myself, so, don't worry about that.
I've got a wonderful boyfriend, Ken, who's made my life better than I ever imagined it could be. I know that I may not show it or tell him enough, but I'm so very happy to have him as such an important part of my life.
We've added to our little family. There's Morgan, the black & tan coonhound-boxer-something else pound doggie and Mohammed, the Syrian hamster who runs probably the hamster equivalent of a marathon each night. My dog is a spaz, a clown, and a big ol' fraidy cat, but I love her to death.
I guess I'm still the "responsible one" out of my wonderful , if scattered, group of friends. While they were all out getting married and buying houses and trying to start families (sheesh, people slow down and let me catch up!!) I decided to have my fun and it led me here.So, yeah, that's it. That's me in a nutshell. (How did I get in a nutshell?!)

My Interests

Camping up north. Had some of the best times of my life up in Northern Michigan, and I'm always itching to go back. I'm ready to travel, though...I've got a few new places to go see and friends to actually meet in person :) I'm a homebody most of the time, though. I like education, and hope to pursue another degree in a few years once I have some more cash handy...

I'd like to meet:

Fun, relatively normal people who can appreciate a good, sarcastic banter. It really isn't that hard to take the time and compose a coherent, correctly spelled message using proper grammar and full words.

If I don't know you, I'm not gonna add you. It's just a fact of life. Build a bridge and get over it, mmmmkay?! Thanks.

Also, I'm looking for any old RHS/ND drama club members from '95-'98, old WSA members from '99-'01, or anyone who used to work summers at good ol' Camp DeSales. Sometimes a blast from the past is a good thing :)

Music:

U2 is my favorite and I've seen them three times in concert. (I'm somewhere in the back corner of their concert DVD from Chicago this past year!) I also like The Tragically Hip, Snow Patrol, Barenaked Ladies, Aerosmith, The Veronicas, The Rolling Stones, The Fray, Lifehouse, Tom Petty, Coldplay, Stroke 9, Switchfoot, and Oasis. I like classic rock, especially when driving around up north. What I listen to on the radio is a bit different that what I'll buy on a CD, but I like a lot of mainstream stuff.

Movies:

I love a good comedy: Office Space, Monty Python, Austin Powers, Spaceballs, etc. I'm also a closeted romantic so I'll take a good love story, too. I tend to really get into a movie and have been known to jump a few times in the theatre! It's not my fault if I'm crying...I can't help that they make sad movies :)

Television:

I'm a non-discriminatory couch potato. I watch a little bit of everything. The TV always seems to be on in the background. Right now, I'm into House, Gilmore Girls, Prison Break, Grey's Anatomy, Ugly Betty, still watchin' ER, and laughing at the chesters getting arrested on Dateline: To Catch a Predator.....

Books:

High School and College pretty much ruined recreational reading for me.

Heroes:

AAAARRRR!!!....

Sorry

I'm very bad about keeping in touch with people. I get so busy and involved in my day-to-day life I forget to call people or take the time to sit down and shoot 'em an e-mail. Guess I don't think my ...

The notice came in the mail yesterday. My lease will be up July 31, 2006. I have to give one month's notice. I have to make a decision and stick with it.
