My Interests

Just about everything. I love to learn new things. I might not be able to use all of my knowledge in a practical manner, but I do enjoy knowing things...especially if they can be used to enable my nefarious plan to take over the world. There's a lot that will be changed for the better. Bad drivers better beware!My current hobbies are: making jewelry, playing PS2 (I like games with the rating of M the most), painting (nothing great yet, just picked this hobby up), web surfing, reading, NASCAR, Ice Hockey, and LSU Football.I'm also a mom...which takes up the majority of my time.

I'd like to meet:

People that aren't fake and/or stupid.

Music:

A little bit of everything. My CD collection is very eclectic. Anything from Classical to Jazz to Classic Rock is a real possibility. I love John Mayer, Dave Matthews, The Beatles, Tori Amos, Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holliday, The Who, The Cure, The Smiths, Johnny Cash (don't judge me), Jimmy Buffett, James Taylor, Eminem, Elton John, Norah Jones, Maroon 5 and just about everyone else. There are very few groups/individuals/genres that I do not like...those would include the stuff that is supposedly "music" but it's more like a cat being thrown onto an electric fence...oh...and I HATE HATE HATE TECHNO!!!

Movies:

Some of my favorites: The Shawshank Redemption, Godfather, Godfather II, Goodfellas, Scarface, Return to Me, Pearl Harbor, Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, L.A. Confidential, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, The Matrix, Fight Club, Monsters, Inc, Clue, Gone With The Wind, A Beautiful Mind, anything by Hitchcock and The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

The Book of Phoebe,Harry Potter (don't judge me), A Handmaid's Tale, God Shaped Hole, Roots, Gone With The Wind, The Time Traveler's Wife, anything by Fanny Flagg, The Da Vinci Code, Angels and Demons, John Grisham's books and many, many more.

Heroes:

All the people who can listen and realize that we're all saying the same thing when you get right down to it.

V-Dubbin in the V-Beach

I bought the Jetta.  A lovely, brand new 2007 VW Jetta is now parked in front of my house.  It's so sweet...I love it very much.  It's a heavier car than one would expect for the size c...

iBaby, part 2 (this time with video!)

    So here's my first attempt at posting a video.  I actually caught her watching the iPhone commercial, completely by accident.  The rest of it is her playing with Gr...

Im buying Tori a new car

So I decided that a 2 door vehicle (my 2002 Explorer Sport) and a rear-facing carseat are getting pretty damn old.  Climbing into the back of the vehicle to strap her in is starting to get on my ...

iBaby

Tori is OBSESSED with the iPhone commercial.  EVERY time it comes on, she stops whatever she is doing and watches with rapt attention.  I tell her, "Yeah, I know it's cool...but YOU'RE NOT ...

Without geometry, life has no point

I know I've been AWOL for awhile, but I've been busy.  I don't have access to MySpace at work (NAZIS) and after looking at a computer all day, I'm not inclined to stare at one when I get home. He...

In a Nutshell

Why I won't be shopping at Target anymore

Today, I went to Target to return some baby related items that I don't need and have been taking up space and exchange them for some other baby related items that I do need and won't take up space for...

To pierce or not to pierce...that is (eventually) the question

My little girl is growing by leaps and bounds..she's eating rice cereal now, soon baby food.  She wakes up at me and smiles a smile that could power 100 light bulbs that are the 100 Watt variety....
