About Me

I'm 28. I'm a hair stylist/make up artist. I LOVE doing hair. Can't imagine doing anything else for work. I'm a collector of Keith Rash paintings. I'm really silly. I love my husband David, my baby McKinley, and my dog Duane.. all my friends are really cute. People sometimes mistake me for a bitch because I'm outspoken and i'm not going to change my opinions so that you'll think i'm cool....but I will respect your thoughts and opinions if you will respect mine. I can't stand to listen to people who complain all the time. I can't stand negative people. It makes me sick when people " name drop"- I don't care what famous person you hung out with all night last night.I dont like drugs, liars, or cheaters. I believe in "girl code", so i'll never steal your boyfriend, date your ex, or let you go out with a bad outfit on. I love GOD and Jesus- If you are going to harass me about it then dont even try to be my friend.I'm not going to harass you about your beliefs. I collect cheap-o plastic snowglobes. I'll never act "too cool" to say hi to you (like the memphis "hipsters"..are they like that everywhere? is it "hip" to be rude?) I'm a morning lark. Kindness is the ability to love people more than they deserve. Did I already say that my little girl is the light of my life? -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- CDBABY LINK for DAVID BROOKINGS: end of an error --
