About Me

CURRENT MOON moon info..
What's up everybody? What can I say about myself....hmmmm................ Well, I'm originally a Cali girl now living in the Chicago area. I've been in the western states my whole life, so this is something new for me, for sure. :) I love to be outdoors...especially in or near the water. I'm the youngest girl out of 7 kids (my little bro is the baby!) and the only kid not living in the Southwest, which means I'm the only one that has to suffer through snowy winters (which I openly admit to HATING). lolI have a degree in Agriculture Education, but I gave up on teaching High Schoolers and pursued something more artistic.....HAIR. :) I've been doing hair now for 7 years and have worked in salons in Montana, California and Illinois. I specialize in color, and was an educator for L'Anza (an international haircare company), which gave me the chance to still use my degree, as well as some awesome opportunities to travel and work with cosmetologists all over. I love meeting new people.....everyone has a story, and I'd love to hear them all. I've worked in the salon for myself for most of my career, but now work on commission at SPA DI DA, a day spa just outside of the city limits of Chicago. I'm a busy girl...I work 6 days a week (and sometimes 7)...3 in the salon and 3 at home as a researcher, I'm trying to start a new business, and I take additional hair and nail clients at home! :) Everyday is an adventure.....but it's great. I don't want my life to be stagnant. :) In addition, I am an Executive Distributor for NSE (Nu Skin Enterprises), an International Wellness and Beauty company...so yes life is crazy most of the time. lolMusic is also a huge part of my life....ask anyone that knows me. :) When I was in High School, everyone was sure that I would have a record deal before our 10 year reunion! lol I taught myself to play a little guitar, but mostly I just play when I am writing music. :) I was a karaoke host for many years.....that was a great job, and I miss it lots. Maybe I'll start a business again. :)In my personal life, I'm definitely ready to settle down. I have a wonderful man in my life who would do anything for me. We've now been together for..wow, it will be 2 years this Spring, and we couldn't be happier. I said that I wasn't looking and that I would know him when he found me....well, we kinda found each other! lol And together we get through everyday. He's everything that I could have ever asked for, and more....and I'm truly happy. Knowing he's there for me gets me through the days when I feel like the worlds crashing down.I suppose there's a lot more to know about me....but why type everything here? If you wanna get to know me, ask me something. :)

Music:

My musical interests are quite eclectic! I pretty much listen to, love and appreciate all kinds of music. Top on my list is of course any and all hip-hop(Missy, Fugees, Kanye West, etc....), and punk/alternative(My Chemical Romance, Me First and the Gimme Gimme's, Atreyu, etc.....). Thanks to my little bro, Jarid "Jer Bear", I've become quite addicted to the Seattle underground scene, and the bands that are comming out of there (ie: AIDEN. Great guys, shweet music.....I tell everyone to check them out....promised I'd spread the word!), and everything that Victory Records is putting out. I also like mild stuff like Joss Stone, and another Seattle musician my bro introduced me to, Rocky Votolato. Otherwise, I don't really wanna name any names because there's too many! :)

Movies:

Man..I am a HUGE movie person. I'm not really into action or that kung-fu crap, but pretty much everything else I love. Hmm....I'll try and name a few good ones I've seen.... Love Song for Bobby Long, Superstar, The Green Butchers, Garden State, Employee of the Month, The Sweetest Thing, In Her Shoes, The Upside of Anger, Breakin 2: Electric Boogaloo (one of my favs from my childhood lol), 40 Year Old Virgin........it's endless. I just love movies! :)

Television:

I don't really watch a lot of TV. When I do, I like CSI, The Family Guy, South Park, stuff on Court TV, Comedy Central......and I'm addicted to The Riches!! I actually own a lot of the HBO and Showtime series' like Six Feet Under and Queer as Folk. If I could get the cable company to let me have just a couple of channels, though, for really cheep, I'd take Discovery(always super interesting stuff on there), TLC(for the great home improvement stuff), The History Channel, and Comedy Central. LOL Then I could get all the great stuff on history and science that's super interesting, and still get some good laughs. :)

Books:

I actually read a lot, when I have the time. I'm totaly a Harry Potter geek. LMAO I like to cruise the bargain books and pick up whatevers cheep.....I love Crime/Forensic Novels, historical fiction, and funny crap 'cause I love to laugh at life! :) My favorite author is probably Dan Brown....I've read everything he's ever written. And since they FINALLY released the "DaVinci Code" into paperback, that means that his 5th book will finally be available very soon in the stores. YEAH! I also like James Patterson(again...the crime novel thing lol), Jean Auel (I've read "Clan of the Cavebear" and the ENTIRE Earth's Children Series...still waiting for the next book), Edward Rutherfurd ("Princes of Ireland"....great historical novel)....guess that's just a few of my fav's. Basically, I love to read. :)
