Don't drink & drive; you might hit a bump and spill it.

About Me

I'm a regular every day girl who works hard all day and goes home to obsessively play World of Warcraft at night. My boyfriend introduced me to the game, and he hasn't had a hot meal since.

My Interests

Anytime I can learn or experience something new or different it interests me. I may not like it and you may have to drag me kicking and screaming to experience it for myself, but in the end I appreciate it. Right now in my life, I read, am a great cook, play World of Warcraft, and love the Red Sox. I also have a renewed interest in camping, I learned how to canoe, and bought my own snowmobile. I love learning about anything culinary and am really into different wines, as well as experimenting in the kitchen.

I'd like to meet:

I'm pretty indiscriminatory.

Music:

Can anyone really answer this question? It's too hard. I like Fuel, I like the soundtrack to Annie. If this gives you a better idea, the last two concerts I went to were Nickelback and Green Day. I think the show before that was Twisted Sister, but that's only because Skid Row was supposed to open. I'm a sucker for an 80s power ballad, just about anything by Aerosmith and I've seen Metallica more times than I can count on one hand.

Movies:

I tend to like older films from the "Film Noir" era, Mildred Pierce and The Maltese Falcon especially. I can always watch Star Wars though...always.

Television:

I love TV. 24 and the Simpsons are two shows that will never go wrong (ok, the last season of 24 was a little weak). I love the Food Network, Celebreality and I heart the (insert decade here) on VH1. I seem to find myself being sucked in by the spoiled teenagers on "My Super Sweet 16" and I can't get enough of Deadliest Catch and Man vs. Wild on Discovery. Ooh that Bear GRRRyllis!

Books:

I read a lot. Not just the quasi-trashy-single-girl-looking-for-love ones (and I'm not talking about Harlequin...I'm very much a Jemima J, Bridget Jones fan) but I do read from other generes as well. Actually, I belong to a book club called "Chick Lit" so if you're in the Manchester area and are interested in attending, let me know! My all time favorite book is "She's Come Undone" by Wally Lamb. Absolutely spectacular. Another good one, kind of Bridget Jones America, is "Getting Over Jack Wagner" by Elise Juska. I've definitely found myself between boyfriends watching Boy Meets World late at night.

Heroes:

I always preferred DC heros to Marvel's so I'm going to have to go with Wonder Woman, mostly because I had the underoos. And Lil' Murky down here is a far better dancer than I am.

My Blog

Julie & Julia

What a great book!  It's about a 30 year old woman in NYC that cooks her way through Julia Child's first French cookbook.  I think I remember reading about it in Cosmo or something when it w...

Lame-O

I just read a year's worth of blogs.  My own blogs.  Man, I'm dull.

Vegetative State

Sorry about being lax on the blogs.  I just haven't felt like it.  And I haven't felt like doing much of anything!  I haven't prowled the house looking for crap to EBay, I haven't playe...

I want to die

This time of year is always so great because it's warming up and all the plants are budding and sprouting....and that's what kills me.  The pollen in the air is so bad right now that you can actu...

The Amy Update

I've been a bit lazy with the blogging this week I guess!  Nothing much is going on.  I'm still obsessively finding things around the house to EBay (so far I've been paid over $130, so that'...

Addiction and Kellie

Addiction; we've all been gripped by something in our lives that has a hold on us.  We can't help it; we need more; we're out of control.  Whether it's chocolate, drugs or WoW...Hee, hee!&nb...

Bonus!

While I was prowling around the house tonight trying to find more stuff to EBay (I have a lot of crap) I found a full bottle of self-tanning lotion.  Ironically, I almost bought some tonight at T...

You SUCK Discover Card!

So, I've wanted to transfer my balance on my Discover Card to something with a lower rate.  I got myself a new card dedicated for this purpose.  It's all set to go...except for the minor pro...

I have new eyebrows.

So far, this has been a pretty good birthday.  I had cake for breakfast then I played WoW for 6 hours this morning.  Having that much time to do nothing and play video games is a pretty good...
