About Me

Hello out there!Welcome to my myspace land. I never know what to write in these profiles but I will give it my best shot. What is there to know about me? I love roller coasters but I am afraid of heights. Just going up the first step of a ladder leaves me giddy but buckle me in to a coaster that goes from 0 - 60 in 2 seconds and I am there (just don't let me look down). I've lived in 45 of the 50 states and several countries in Europe. I thought it was because I was part of the witness protection program but apparently it was because my dad was in the military. So much for an overactive imagination and a sense of mystery, eh? My mother was an actress and talk show hostess in the UK. She recently passed away and I miss her terribly. I was born in Guam. I am one of 5 kids (was 7 but the twins aren't alive anymore). I am an Aunt of 8 and a Great Aunt of 3 (soon to be 5). I love music (all kinds)and movies. I absolutely love Hockey. I've had all kinds of jobs... I was a backstage props manager for an ensemble theater. I worked for a chef. I have managed a couple of bands. I've worked in the fabulous world of retail sales and I've been an executive assistant for the last 7 years. Not sure what it is that I want to do in life. I basically go with the flow and learn and adapt as I go.
