Does a 40-year-old chick have any use for MySpace?

About Me

Happily married to the coolest guy for 15 years. Love my job-I own a pet sitting business, and get to spend my days playing with dogs & cats. I also have a small business designing and making jewelry. I love collecting gems, beads, & rocks. I also really enjoy time at our family cabin in Tahoe and cruising around on my motorcycle. Someday I want to make pottery and also have an all-female American Mariachi band and actually play my stand-up bass that's collecting dust in my living room. And sing covers of Violent Femmes songs in really bad spanish. For money. Wearing an evening gown with a big sombrero with dingle-balls.....

My Interests

Dogs! Pets. Parrots. Pedro Almodovar movies, foreign/indie films, documentaries, animal behavior & nutrition, gourmet cooking, Reiki, music, and more music.

I'd like to meet:

John Doe, Bob Geldof, Elvis Costello, Jonaz from Plastilina Mosh and the Dalai Lama.Update: I actually have (briefly) met 2 of my idols: Bob Geldof (After a concert. He seemed so tired and I just wanted to give him a hug.) And John Doe who was incredibly gracious to sign my book and was extremely handsome!
