About Me

Suburbanite relocated to Chicago for about 10 years, now back in the suburbs. Odd how life works like that. I am slowly getting use to life in the suburbs. There are things I truly miss about the city and there are things I like about the 'burbs. I work Full Time, am a wife, a mom, and wish I had more free time to ride my motorcycle. My son, My husband, My dog, my family and my career are very important to me. I'm quite the music fan and had many crazy days and nights, now I'm "more responsible"...at times. Sometimes I want to live that Rock N Roll Lifestyle again and then when I try, I have a really bad headache....I just got out of full-time radio and do event coordinating full-time and radio part-time, I used to work with labels, bands and clubs.
