“Trickery and treachery are the practices of fools that have not the wits enough to be honest” B

About Me

I've been married for nearly 14 years to the first person in the first row down there. We have three kids: Ty just turned 13 and Lys & Leigh are 7 going on 25.I share space with 4 cats and 2 dogs - my Am Staff Macchi and chocolate Lab CC. Have a pain in the ass or stray pet? Let us know and we'll probably take it in for you. :)

Let's see...I work from home and log way more computer time than is probably healthy for anyone. I get bored easily. I suck at being a housewife, please ignore the dust and collections of pet hair at the bottom of the stairs...and I don't recommend the cooking!

Three Good Things to Know:

...pretzels and caffeine can get you through anything
...sarcasm is better than seriousness any day
...everything usually works out just the way it's supposed to.

I'd like to meet:

what's in it for you if you add me?

blog spam in the form of bulletins. (you should just subscribe now and get it over with.)
random day of the week comments
delayed return comments
pointless bulletin surveys
more sarcasm than seriousness...any day

What can I put here to make you add me? Do you even read these things?

I kinda like the people I already have on my list (kinda :P) and I don't add people just for the sake of adding them. But if I know you/knew you or think I might like you, I'll add you. But if you don't talk to me, I'll delete you...I'm needy like that.

PS-all the apps on myspace are blocked because they suck and lag pages down. if you want to play with me, come find me on facebook

Except around here, when it leaks it floods is probably more accurate.  Remember that smell I can never seem to find.  It's been found.  While we're trying to figure out what to do with...
