About Me


...oh, so you want to know about me?? Well, I think that every person is just a collection of interesting little tidbits of stuff...here's some interesting little tidbits of my stuff...
-I have an irrational fear of spiders and heights. -I can't go swimming in natural bodies of water unless I can see the bottom and I have to have my feet covered at all times. -I wanted to be an Archeologist when I was little. I tell everyone that Indiana Jones and Wonder Woman were my heros when I was a kid, but secretly they still are. -My favorite color depends on the day of the week. -If I meet you on the street I probably won't remember your name the next time I meet you. Not that I won't remember meeting you, I'm just really bad with names. But oddly enough if I saw you in a movie for five seconds ten years ago I can tell you your name, every movie you've ever been in since, and the names of all of the people in those movies with you. -I'm a Grammy-award winning artist in the safe and rejection-free confines of my car. -I have an inherent mistrust of people that don't have a sense of humor. -I don't have any nicknames...I've tried giving myself one but it just doesn't stick if you give it to yourself :( -I once told my fourth grade teacher I had morning sickness, when she asked me if my mom was going to have a baby I thought she was a genius. -I think I talk about work too much...and I think it irritates the piss out of my friends...but they're too nice to say anything about it so they just put up with me. -I have really nice friends :o) -One day I want to live by the ocean. -Driving in big cities scares the shit out of me. -I'm hopelessly addicted to carbs. -I know Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer in German.-Even superheros have to keep mundane things like To Do lists...-I think Scottish accents are cool as hell. -I hate my cell phone because I can't live without it. -I'm a Leo and the only quality I posess that's even remotely Leo-like is the fact that I'm the boss at work. Although most of my employees will probably say I'm the most childish and unprofessional boss they've ever had. -I'm tragically disorganized. -I'm a sympathetic crier...like a rock until someone around me starts crying. Then I'm a big blubbering baby.
-Tinkerbell is my cartoon hero. She's not seen as the girly-girl princess type but she's still a girl. Cute and feminine but mess with her and your bound to end up on the floor in a world of hurt. She's kind of an idiot when it comes to love. She's stuck on a guy that will never grown up and likes someone else. She has a tendancy to go on jealous homicidal rampages. Plus she can fly. All the qualities that make a cartoon heros worth of admiration. -Tom Jones makes me do the Carlton.
-My job takes up WAY TOO much of my time and energy. It's not the kind of job where you go, "I love this job and I would never do anything different!!!", but it's also not one where I dread going to work everyday. I'm proud to tell people what I do for a living, it pays my bills and I'm not living paycheck to paycheck anymore. "Pretty good for a single girl with no degree" a friend of mine once said. Plus I really like all the people I work with which is a blessing because there are lots of unsavory folks out there. I've worked with plenty in the past. I'm fortunate now to work with people I enjoy being around. -I have an irrational fear of spiders and heights...I know I mentioned it already but they seriously freak me out...I get vertigo going up open flights of stairs and I'm convinced every spider I see is going to chew my head off...
-Sometimes I wonder if I should act my age. Then I think that we all spend so much time in our childhoods wishing we were older. So it seems only fitting to be an adult and wishing I were younger. Except it's way better this time around because I don't have a bed time anymore...
It means, "infinite are the number of fools." Oh so true...and sometimes I'm even one of them...um...a lot of the time I'm one of them!! :o)
I get a kick outta these demented little games
Click on the girl to pick her up and let her fall...an extremely disturbing metaphor for life's journey or psychotic flash at work??? You decide...
HEADBUTT!!! Move the guy around with your mouse and left-click to headbutt the other players...cool.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:



-This is gonna seem weird but anyone who intimidates me now or intimidated me in the past, I'd like to meet them as kids. Seeing them in any akward phase of childhood would bring them down a few notches and make them a lot less scary.

-I'd like to meet the person that invented the cell phone so I can thank them then punch them in the face :)

-I'd like to meet President Bush. Just to satisfy my curiosity. He's portrayed as such an idiot on TV most of the time, so I want to know if he comes off that way in person too.

-I'd like to meet Stephen King. I'm not sure what I'd say to him, aside from thanks for all the stories.
