Some Stories Are True That Never Happened.

About Me


I love hanging out with my family and friends. I love to laugh...at myself included, and do this often. I enjoy reading and write a bit as well. I love music and singing around the house (and sometimes out of tune). I love being goofy and having a good time. I have specific shows that I watch on TV, but don't channel surf just to have something to watch. I love to talk to others about subjects more substantial than just popular culture. I have many interests. My real world friendships are cherished. I have no room in my life for phonies or fair-weather friends. I don't take kindly to acts of betrayal. I desire only real and satisfying relationships in my life. I love hardwood floors, ripe summer fruit, heavy snowfalls, sunbathing, full-body - deep tissue massage, thunderstorms and a really good cup of coffee in the morning. I have a strange fascination with pens, pencils, paper, bed sheets, and bath towels. Oh, and I strongly dislike Wal-Mart. If you want to know something about me, just ask...

Logical and detailed, you tend to look at the facts.

I have a children's book that I'm putting together in my head, but nothing on paper yet. I do like to read a good medical thriller, such as The Hot Zone, or Demon in the Freezer, both by Richard Preston.

Heroes:


You are Bettie Page
Girl next door with a pretty big wild streak
You're a famous beauty - with a unique look
And the people who like you, are cultish about it!
Your Values Profile
Loyalty: You value loyalty highly. You're loyal to your friends. Staying true to others is important to you, but you also stay true to yourself.
Honesty: You value honesty highly. You're unflinchingly honest, even when it's not easy. For you, integrity is very important - in yourself and others. People may not always like what you say, but they know they can trust it.
Generosity: You value generosity highly. So much so that you often put your own needs last. There's nothing wrong with having a caring heart...but you may want to rethink your "open wallet" policy.
Humility: You value humility highly. You have the self-confidence to be happy with who you are. And you don't need to seek praise to make yourself feel better. You're very modest, and you keep the drama factor low.
Tolerance: You value tolerance a fair amount. You are open to new cultures, beliefs, and ideas. You have very few prejudices. And while you are tolerant, you do stand true to what you believe.
