 Dislikes: 
 slutty girls 
 People who can't drive the way I'd like them to 
 over-cooked pasta 
 Flakers. 
 clowns. I really really really hate clowns. 
 Emo-ness for the sake of fitting in. 
 Politicians who associate themselves with a group of people and claim that their opinions apply to the entire group... when they dont. Take Christianity for example... according to some people (select politicians, pastors, whoever)... all good Christians should hate homosexuals. I'm sorry that they feel that way. Because I believe that although God might not be cool with homosexuality, I don't have to hate those people. GOD LOVES EVERYONE. and He says you should too. So for the people who are treating others like crap... stop it. Grow up and learn to respect other people's lifestyles. If you want to effect them, do it by not showing hostility... otherwise they arent going to give you the time of day. 
 Liars. If you don't have the decency to be honest, get the heck away from me. 
 Random Tangent: 
 My birthday happens to coincide with National Peanut Butter and Jelly Day... just in case you care.
                    
                        I'd like to meet:
                        The musically inclined
Those with a head on their shoulders and a sense for good conversation
Anyone who's real.
This here is the first boy to truly steal my heart at first sight - Elijah Chaz, my adorable nephew
This kid's already got me wrapped around his little finger... 
"Love is walking the line between life and death: one side is dark and razor-edged, and the other translucent and glowing. It's never a possession, but always a possessor: with a smile as soft as clouds, and eyes that pierce like winter chill: Love is everything you have ever wanted. Goes wherever you go. Consumes whoever you become. It's everything."

In my opinion, good friends are the best kind of heroes.
So here's the Line Up
Love this boy. That's basically all there is to it.

The infamous Miley Jean; we've been causing havoc in this small town for seven years and running... don't know where I'd be with this girl
The always smiling leprechaun who helps me get through my work day, David
Colby Engstrum, my former youth pastor, and one of the most intelligent people I know.
My sister, brother-in-law and most adorbale nephew, Eli.
