A little about me.... (If you are interested....)

About Me

Let's see.... About me?

I've been happily (for the most part - anyone who says it's smiles and roses all the time is flat our lying) married to the love of my life for almost 11 years. I have 4 fantastic kids that are a test to my patience but my greatest joy all at the same time.

I spend my free time working on the nearing one million businesses (at least that's the count my friends currently have, lol) that I have started. I also work part time at a local grocery store and have made some pretty good friends there. (If at times there are people I want to strangle - oh well, such is life.)

I really don't go out all that much. Between working at night and my family my time is already stretched a little thin. That's about it really, except for the day to day stuff which would probably bore the h*ll out of anyone reading this. :-P

My Interests

Well, this should be a long one also...

I love to read and write (though for a while now my creative writing skills have been a little neglected.) I read just about anything I get my hands on. My current favorite genres are fantasy, romance, science fiction, mysteries, and new age/occult (for lack of a better term for it.)

I sing when no one is around, but never dance. (What a sight that would be -- rofl.)

I love to do crafts but seem to switch my favorite craft often. I am currently back to making bath and body items and jewelry when the creative juices are flowing.

Ok, maybe not as long as I thought, but that's me in a nutshell.


Myspace Layouts

I'd like to meet:

I am hoping to find some old friends that I have lost touch with over the years. I would also like to make some new friends that share my interests. (Please see last paragraph of this section before contacting me please.)

I would also love to meet any of my favorite authors. Who am I kidding - I would like to meet any authors. A famous actor, singer, or musician would be nice.... LOL.

I would not like to meet anyone looking for a date or relationship. I am so sick of being hit on simply because I am on-line and a female.

Music:

Honestly I'm really not that much into music anymore. I think because there is always so much noise around the house that when there is that brief moment of silence I would rather enjoy that then fill it with more sound.

When I do listen to music it's a pretty wide range. I especially like female singers like Tori Amos (my favorite artist of all time), Pink, Fiona Apple, and Jewel (yes, I actually admitted to that!) I also really like Evanescence, Pink Floyd, My Chemical Romance, Black Eyed Peas, quite a few hip-hop and rap artists (though I can't tell you names because I am horrible with remembering them), and pretty much anything except for most jazz.

Movies:

I love movies a little too much. Our current DVD count is over 400. I am known at work to hoard stacks of previously viewed DVDs for sale to buy when I can afford it. (Much to the annoyance of my boss, lol.) I will watch pretty much anything and have a secret devotion to stupid date/chick flick movies. If it's fantasy, sci-fi, or romantic comedy there's a good chance I've seen it.

Television:

I don't really watch much television lately, but what I do it is usually to watch one of the following shows: House, Bones, Charmed, NCIS, Buffy reruns, Angel reruns, How I Met Your Mother, Yes Dear, Dharma & Greg, or the Mind of Mencia.

Books:

Hee hee hee.... If I were to list all of my favorite books it would not be pretty. I would run out of room and your eyes would be in pain from trying to read all of it. I guess I will just list SOME of my current favorite authors: Laurell K. Hamilton, Nora Roberts (especially when writing as JD Robb), Kate Forsyth, Piers Anthony, David Eddings, Maggie Shayne, Sherilynn Kenyon, Charlaine Harris, Kim Harrison, Silver Ravenwolf, Scott Cunningham, and Ted Andrews. This is by no means a complete list and I am sure that I will end up adding and editing as time goes on.

Heroes:

I think it's very difficult to find heroes in this day and age. Everyone is so keen to find the inside angle and illuminate everyones flaws and failings that it's hard to find someone that embodies the "hero persona". Even with trying I can't think of anyone that I look up to that I could even term a hero. Maybe if I think on it for a while I can come up with something. :-(
