About Me

I LOVE to laugh-it's the only way to get through this game called life! I have a Bachelor's in Criminal Justice & dream of being an attorney. For now I'm a sales rep @ the newspaper. Random facts: I read so many books about serial killers & crime that I double check that my doors are locked, yet I can't put the books down. I can't go without checking CNN.com multiple times a day. I mute the TV if the President is on because I think he's an idiot. I love baseball but only when the Braves are playing. I think the iPod Touch is one of the coolest things ever created. Traveling is something I simply don't get to do enough of. I want to see the entire world. Especially Australia. I have more clothes & shoes than anyone would ever need in a lifetime but still buy more. I love happy hour and nights out. I've got the best group of friends anyone could ask for. Life is good!

My Interests

Shopping-especially for shoes, singing or anything else to do with music, watching TV & movies, reading, hanging out with friends, travel and hanging with my favorite boys @ Blue Genes. I recently got into politics--I find the entire subject fascinating.

I'd like to meet:

This could be a loooong list. There's a ton of celebrities I want to meet but I simply must meet David Cook. I'd love to meet the person who is going to be crazy enough to fall head over heels in love with me, someone who will be man enough to catch me when I fall. And I'd love to see myself in about 5 years-I want to know if I accomplish all my goals and if I'm happy.

Music:

I'm a rock girl...Bon Jovi is my all time fav, especially his older stuff. Daughtry, Hinder, Nickelback, Lifehouse, Lenny Kravitz, 12 Stone & a newbie-David Cook from AI7-he is amazing! But I love the old school stuff too-Chicago, REO Speedwagon, Queen, The Eagles, Journey, Foreigner, etc.

Movies:

I could watch a good conspiracy movie over & over again. I love anything that makes you think or laugh. And I love anything that is out of the ordinary. But if it's a chick flick, I'll probably pass.

Television:

I love, love, love 24! Love Big Brother, American Idol, Prison Break, Heroes, Boston Legal, Nip/Tuck, Law & Order, CSI, LOST, Sleeper Cell, Dexter & any good drama or action show. And CNN Headline News. I can watch it for hours.

Books:

I love to read!!!! Lee Child, David Baldacci, James Patterson & John Grisham. Anything that has to do with serial killers, crimes or conspiracy theories is awesome in my eyes.

Heroes:

My sweet Mammy. She was the type of person everyone wishes they could be. R.I.P. Mammy! Everyone who is risking their lives to defend our freedoms, especially all my boys in the service. And anyone who stays true to who they are.

Is this year really almost over???

Wow, it really seems like it should still be summer or something. I can't believe 2008 is mere weeks away. I can't believe my 25th birthday is in less than 3 months. So it's time for me to look back ...

This is My Now

So here's the thing. I'm a mere month & a half from finally finishing my Bachelor's degree. My life has changed so drastically in the last 2 years that I can't believe I'm living the same life. It fe...

So there's no time like the present! I'm currently sitting at the Tennessean, submitting what homework I could get finished before my lovely internet connection decided to die. And since I couldn't u...

Isn't it amazing where life takes you?

I was talking to Robb-who is one of my favorite coworkers-yesterday about how next month will be my 3 year anniversary there. His response? And just think of all you've been through in those 3 years. ...

Change is supposed to be good, right?

This scares me a little...

First things first...I want to thank everyone for their support during the loss of my precious Mammy. I have to admit that it really sucks being the first person in the family to have to celebrate a b...

I can't believe that 2006 is fixing to come to an end!! This year has probably been one of the hardest of my life. But it has been, by far, the best! I've made a lot of changes, said goodbye to some o...

This is just wrong...

And it's horrible that I even find this show entertaining and most of the time, funny. But I'm sitting here, still trying to write that damn paper about the terrorists. I watched a few episodes of Sle...
