My Interests

Eating chocolate.Clearance shopping.volleyball.the steelers. making fun of brown's fans. shopping seasons ahead for my kids clothing. organizing things and places. playing spades.

I'd like to meet:

i would like to play lazer tag with the cast of the office. i would love to have a cup of jo with president bush. i would also like to go over the play book (and have dinner) with ben roethlisberger.

Music:

you know that person driving in front of you that is not paying attention...and her speed keeps fluxuating but you can tell she has her music on and is dancing a little in the front seat?i like anything that gets my foot tapping. i especially love old 90's rap and r&b.

Movies:

i very rarely watch movies....sad. i know. however, we have a DVR now...so i watch more than i used to. recently saw american gangster. great flick.

Television:

we pay a cable bill to watch the steelers play on sunday and the office on thursday. and cartoon's in between those. the end.

Books:

i'd rather be on the computer filling my mind with worthless information...like, did you know that when i googled my brothers name...it said "dennis needs to poop and pee." that's good stuff.i am reading "bringing up boys" right now.

Heroes:

wow. that's a tough position to fill.
