Innovation, NOT Imitation :D

About Me

I have a wonderful daughter, who I refer to as "Del". I love my daughter more then anything, even when motherhood seems difficult. Del is growing and changing so quickly, it's amazing. :) I'd love to meet other parents, single and otherwise, cuzz it helps to have a network when you're a Mommy :) I LOVE all kinds of music, especially opera and 80's. :) Annie Lennox is my favorite female singer, everything she does is incredible. I work for ShopKo of Sheboygan, and have always enjoyed being a Retail employee.

My Interests

www.gothicauctions.com (incredible auction site for Goth and Not-So-Goth stuff) The Eurythmistan website, home of Annie and Dave. Of course, I have to promote the people who pay me, so check out www.shopko.com. I'm lucky, my co-workers are awesome. :) Hmm...I love to sing, (I used to want to be an opera singer, anyone out there need a singer for your wedding or other occasion?) read, (especially books about true crime, forensic medicine, and fiction from authors like Dean Koontz, and John Saul). I enjoy working out, and do every day. I'm also a person who enjoys plays, musicals, operas, movies, concerts, art galleries, coffee houses, museums, and the occasional Karaoke place. :)

I'd like to meet:

Friends, people who love to sing, other parents. Anyone who was in my graduating class from North High (Class of 1994, U know who u r :) ) feel free to say "Hello!" People from Albuquerque, cuzz I want more contacts out there in the "Land Of Enchantment".

Music:

Annie Lennox, Eurythmics, Tears For Fears, Kate Bush, Lords of Acid, Praga Khan, Paul Oakenfold, DJ Tiesto, Utah Saints, Har Mar Superstar, Enya, System of A Down, Way 2 Fall (AWESOME band from Wisconsin, they have a MySpace page, check it out!), Joy Division, Evanescence, REM, Keane, Snow Patrol, Depeche Mode, Premium (although they broke up :( ) Snow Patrol. IF U WANNA KNOW MORE, JUST DROP ME A LINE AND ASK ME

Movies:

A Clockwork Orange, Rocky Horror Picture Show, Jawbreaker, Transformers, Disturbia,I Robot, Charlie And The Chocolate Factory, Party Monster, Saw, The Secret of NIMH ,The Butterfly Effect, Minority Report, Groove, Last House On The Left, Chasing Holden, For Keeps, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, A Beautiful Mind, Gothika, The Ring, TONS more that I can't think of right now. I also like movies starring Shia LaBeouf, he's my favourite actor.

Television:

I don't watch much TV, but when I do, I usually tune into PBS. I LOVE the fact they show re-runs of British comedy shows on Sunday afternoons, so I enjoy that a lot. I also like the Cartoon Network, I think my favorit show is Aqua Teen Hunger Force. (My favorite character is Frylock, by the way. :P)

Books:

I **LOVE** to read, and my favorite book is titled "No Stone Unturned", it is about forensic pathology (of course). I love medical fact and fiction, true crime, and believe it or not, children's books. They help me relax when I'm stressed! I also like anything by Steven King, Dean Koontz, John Saul, and Robin Cook. I enjoy biographies and autobiographies, my favorite one of those is "A Midwife's Tale: The Diary of Martha Ballard", about a midwife in the late 1700's and early 1800's. Also, I love the book "Naomi" by author Douglas Clegg, because I relate to a lot of the passages in it.

Heroes:

Famous Hero: Annie Lennox. Yes she's wealthy and famous, but she's been through her share of rough times, including having had a stillborn child. She has Adult Bipolar Disorder; and she managed to make her life fairly happy,( I would gather) and wildly successful. I'm inspired by her music and her down-to-earth attitude. This woman is a survivor.
