About Me

A work in progress. Hoping to reach my fullest potential. Hoping you reach yours too, and willing to help you when I can. Can't spell for shit, a definite drawback for a writer, but then that's what the little ABC button at the top of the Word program is for, right? Love music. Thought it would be my life, but it's not. Journalism. Willing to sacrifice for love. Looking to skydive, mostly because I'm scared shitless, and fear should never be a part of anyone's personal repertoire. Scuba? Okay, I'll do it. Maybe. Hey, I got bit by some fish when I was a little nipper. Ow. Now I eat them. Take that bad fishy! I'm moving (Sorry Moo. A girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do.) just as soon as I figure out whether it should be to Palm Harbor, St. Pete, or NOLA. Well, unless someone's got a good reason to stay in all this snow and cold. (That's right, Moo. That's a direct challenge.) I take my education seriously. I take my work seriously. I take my family and friends seriously (well, unless they're joking, which DOES happen most of the time). Me? I'm learning to not take myself so seriously. Ultimately, I'm hoping to put my little puzzle piece of a life into the Big Picture and have it make sense. Hope I'm never one of those easy to figure out corner pieces...
You Belong in London
A little old fashioned, and a little modern.
A little traditional, and a little bit punk rock.
A unique woman like you needs a city that offers everything.
No wonder you and London will get along so well. What City Do You Belong In?

My Interests

Making life easier for everyone. I'm big on anything that makes me think or feel anything at all. Right now, I'm into studying genocide (or rather the communication related to genocide that makes all that bullshit even possible.)

I'd like to meet:

Samantha Power. Robert Kennedy Jr. Wayne Dyer. Tim Flannery. Dr. Susan Szmania. Rumi. Mary Magdalene. Anyone looking to make a difference in this world.

Music:

Yo-Yo Ma. Maynard Ferguson. Parliament. Dino. Frank. Did I mention Dino? Mozart. Gershwin. Holst. Okay, I could go on and on, but the reality is, I love almost anything.

Movies:

Readying myself to watch Hotel Rwanda. No. No, I'm not looking forward to it given my current coursework. HOWEVER, I think it's important for us to suck it up and take it in. All in. It SHOULD hurt. Genocide is painful, man.

Television:

Ghost Hunters new season starts in a week and a half. Guess where I'll be??? Come on, wannna guess?? Other than that, I've been a bit busy and distracted lately.

Books:

A Problem from Hell. Then to talk myself off the ledge, I read a little bit of something more spiritual.

Heroes:

My friend Cory. Moo. Stone. Me. SKB. Sarah. Miss Kate and her mate (I just HAD to say that). My kids. Mel. Those wacky hounds of mine. My baby cousins. (Okay, not so much the babies anymore.) My sis and her mate. TB. Amy Winehouse.

My Blog

Oh my Mammies! How I love ya...how I love ya...

For the record, you can squash DD+'s in a mammography machine to the size of an 8-inch, deep-dish pizza with almost no pain whatsoever! Who'd have thunk it? (I'll take mine with cheese and...

But I say, "no, no, no". Why you ask? Well, it's all about the beauty that is alcohol. You know, some people can't even become alcoholics? Bad DNA, I say. Geez, I'm glad I...
