Christmas, Christmas, Christmas...I LOVE Christmas!! Besides celebrating the real meaning of the season (I LOVE Jesus!!), I also like baking, coming up with this year's theme (I'm so SO phobic about patterned holiday wrapping paper and pre-made bows that every year I come up with a different gift wrap theme and make the paper and other decorations myself), listening to Christmas songs (I especially love "What Child is This"), and making my Christmas list well known...Santa Baby I'm dying, DYING for a Cartier love bracelet. Also asking for a Petek handbag (my family is like the Louis Vuitton of Eastern Europe when it comes to handbags...random!!), a Michael Gomez photoshoot, and a subscription to Martha Stewart Living.Other than Christmas, my interests are...anything with BBQ sauce, teaching people proper punctuation (especially the use of the comma...my BIGGEST pet peeve!!), learning to fish, Cabernet Sauvignon, developing an affinity for pickles, olives, and beer (they are all just TOO disgusting for words...yuck, yuck, gag!!), finding the perfect pair of jeans to tuck into my boots (if they're not right, you just end up looking like a peg legged fat ass), sleeping naked in thick down comforters, accomplishing my life goals (I have over 35 and the list keeps growing!!), working with burn patients in the Vanderbilt Burn Center, finding a way to convince my boyfriend to try out for the Amazing Race, writing (one day I hope to write a column), fried okra, working out (especially my triceps and calves) for the world's most anticipated music video ever (ha ha ha babe), waterfalls, the history of Country Music, people who triumph over adversity, inside jokes, stained glass windows, waterfalls, white fireworks (I want them at my wedding reception), the perfect cup of green tea, courteous drivers (I'm an over waver!!), well done pecan waffles from Waffle House, my ancestry (love my peeps...we have the coolest story ever!!)

Jesus (but not anytime soon!)...Willie, Waylon and the boys...Wangari Maathai (2004 Nobel Prize winner...and my inspiration, proving that one person can make a difference)...Angelina Jolie (I want to be just like her...she uses her celebrity to help others and she's HOT!)...all of our soliders (to thank them!)...Dick Butkus (because growing up I wanted to be a linebacker), Jessica Simpson, Marlon Brando (the hottest!!)
First and foremost Jerrod Niemann. Then of course the standards: Merle, Whitley, Hank, Lefty, Loretta, Patsy, Willie, Dolly, Waylon, King George, Diffie, and so many more. Could take or leave most new country with the exception of the following: Little Big Town (I know them and they are the nicest people EVER), Ashley Monroe, Jason Aldean, Dierks (I just wish he would get off the f-in road!!) and of course the Traler Park!! My guilty pleasure is Trace (I sang back up on his newest single and one day I'll take him up on his invite and be in one of his vids...I'm just waiting for one where the girls actually have some clothes on!!). I also love The Doors, Fleetwood Mac, U2, Outkast, my friend Michael Johns, and Frank Sinatra (cause my Pop Pop was in his band for years!!). Also love Marc Brousard, The Eagles, old school Pearl Jam, Tom Petty, and Beyonce and Gwen are my girls.
I have trouble sitting through a whole movie but out of the ones that I've made it through...I love Tombstone, Clueless, The Notebook, all the Rambos (LOVE them!), Dr. Zhiago, Funny Girl, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Almost Famous, A Street Car Named Desire, Kill Bill 1&2, Scarface, Shag, Casino, Borat, Office Space, Me, Myself & Irene, A River Runs Through It, Fight Club, American History X, Something About Mary, Walk the Line, Dumb and Dumber, Pulp Fiction, The Jerk, Remember the Titans, The Green Mile, and Shawshank Redemption...still HATE Star Wars (sorry baby!!)
My all time favorite is Jeopardy and any sort of spin off, such as Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, etc. Anything on Discovery Health (preferably a live surgery, preferably something to do with neurology...growing up I wanted to be a pediatric neurologist and went to school for pre-med so it's the only way I get my fix now), Anything on the Food Network (except for Rachael Ray (I HATE her face!!) and Emeril...I'm Bobby Flay's biggest FAN!!), Project Runway, Entourage, Forensic Files, Seinfeld, Girls Next Door, Sopranos (I'm quite sure that I should have been born a mafia princess), Arrested Development, The Simpsons, and I so can't believe I'm admitting this...The Golden Girls
I'll have to come back to this...there are far, far too many!!
My Mama (for being the coolest, strongest lady ever...if I end up being half the mom that you are, I will have the luckiest kids in the world), Grandma (for teaching me how to be the best wife in the world some day...every time the winds blows, I know that it is your angel wings brushing softly on my face...you are loved and missed more than I could ever let you know), Mother Teresa (for obvious reasons), Tiffany Fallon and all the other Country Music wives (for so graciously sacrificing the men they love in order to make millions around the world happy...I'll be joining your ranks soon!!)
