About Me

I'm 24 years old, single and living on the west side of Indianapolis in Avon. Currently I work as a Marketing Assistant at the IMA (scroll down if you want to know what that means) as well as at home games for the Indianapolis Colts-while I don't work directly for the Colts (I'm paid by the NFL), it's a fantastic job and I love hanging out with my crew and kicking some statistics ass. I have a great group of friends, most of whom I don't get to see nearly as much as I would like to, and enjoy learning new things and new experiences. I love traveling (Chicago, Mobile, Charlotte, Nashville, Michigan, Vegas and soon to be NYC).
Here's some more random facts...since you asked so nicely.
I'm a sucker for accents...doesn't matter from where.
Downtown Indianapolis has some great shopping.
Fireworks are awesome...nothing beats a good fireworks show.
I listen to country music...deal with it.
Starbucks was invented just for me, I'm certain of it.
Well, I've flat run out of things to mention here that wouldn't be redundant elsewhere. Got any other questions? Just ask! :)

My Interests

Tons of things...sports, reading (I'm seriously a nerd, you'll discover that very easily), music and dancing, comedies, traveling, working (see? Nerdish) and spending time with friends. ..

I'd like to meet:

A lot of actors, really...or TV personalities. They include: Sarah Chalke, Judy Reyes, John Krasinski, Josh Charles, Channing Tatum (aah), David Muir, and Joshua Molina. Sports personalities include Mike Greenberg, Ben Utecht (again, sigh), and Marlin Jackson. All in all, though, I love meeting all sorts of people and would love to meet you!

Music:

It would take a year and a half to write out everything, so I'll generalize with genres...pop, r&b, rap, country, cuban, jazz, classical, old school, oldies and more. ..

Movies:

I tend to gravitate toward comedies...Office Space, Ferris Bueller, Talladega Nights...well, anything Will Ferrell, really. Also like some dance movies-Center Stage, Save the Last Dance, Coyote Ugly, etc. And, of course, the horrible but good ones-Days of Thunder, Driven, Top Gun, Dirty Dancing. You know...I am a child of the 80s...

Television:

A lot of shows on NBC (The Office, Scrubs, 30 Rock-okay, three) and Comedy Central (pretty much any stand up, Colbert Report, Daily Show, Stella) and some various other ones...Sports Night will always be my favorite show, though! New adds to this list (and already ranking very high) are Curb Your Enthusiasm, Three Sheets & Dirty Jobs. Aaah...hot hosts. ..
This made me laugh!! Fierce!
..

Books:

I read a lot of books, pretty much everything in between a to z. I really enjoy historical or non-fiction (I'm a biography nerd) or chick lit...some favorite authors include Sarah Vowell and Lauren Weisberger. ..

Heroes:

Just a lot of people...maybe not heroes (that sounds bad, I know) but those who inspire me. The list is too long to put here! ..

My Blog

Because you were all so patient...a movie blog is yours!!

Well, it's happened again...I'm bored at work. Yes, I do have things to do, but not enough to keep me busy straight until 5:00pm, so I have to space it out. Plus, that way, I get to savor ...

A Danica Patrick blog. I couldn’t help it.

So...I typically attempt to veer away from anything DP-related; however, the past few weeks seem to have invaded (involuntarily) my work with her, so I feel the need to do-what else?-critique. A...

Well, suppose I should put up a new blog.

I suppose I haven't put up a blog in awhile because there isn't much going on, which is the truth. Just doing the whole life thing, day to day! I'll see if I can find some new or somewhat ...

Just an update-nothing big.

So I've actually gotten caught up at work today, which is good. We introduced a bunch of new features the other week, and since then I'd been backed up because of some errors that were unexpecte...
