if I can't have everything well then just give me a taste

About Me


now, about me (i know, the suspense was killing you wasn't it ^_^): i like a variety of things and adapt easily to new situations. i believe in loyalty and honesty above all things. ask me anything; i will tell you the truth. people say i'm funny or cool, maybe it's true. i am a bit of a homebody, but i am working on that. i have a great sense of humor and do not offend easily. i get excited about even the small things. i am trying to learn to see the beauty (or at least the meaning) in all things, even the bad ones. i am a work in progress (i believe we all are... never stop learning and never stop searching for new experiences). i seem pretty shy at first,but once i get to know you, you may just wish i'd shut up ^_^ i am a very curious person. if you are visiting my page and you are not on my friends list, send me a message... let me know who you are. i love meeting new people!
here are 2 pics of my sister who is awesome and i miss her since she is away in iraq... she rocks!!!:
1)at ft. sam in texas before she left for iraq:
2)in iraq where she is now working as a medic for the us army:

Television:

i try to limit myself to at least the daily show (i ♥ jon stewart)... ones i try to watch regularly: lost and smallville (I ♥ MR)... i try not to watch too much tv. shows i have seen and like them if they happen to be on: the family guy (yes, like everyone, i ♥ stewie), entourage (gotta love me some jeremy piven), everybody hates chris (i see so much of my childhood in that show ^_^) i will also admit that sometimes on my day off i do indulge in a little mtv. i love the history channel, A&E and the discovery channel, but they are way too dangerous for me as i tend to get sucked into them too easily. ok, so this proves that i probably need to cut waaaay back on the tv.

Books:

crap... i love crap!! ok, so not all of what i like is crap, but quite a bit of it is... yes, i am a fan of anne rice's vampire chronicles (esp. memnoch the devil, that is my fave b/c of the religious aspects... very interesting), neil gaiman and terry pratchett's good omens (if you haven't read that book, do it now... i read it at least once a year), dostoevsky's crime and punishment, camus's the stranger, adams's the ultimate hitchhiker's guide. i still like a lot of my college textbooks. i will probably think of more later.

My Blog

ok, music challenge.the other day, my boyfriend and i were discussing music. he likes to (and several people also like to) talk trash to me sometimes b/c i like so much music out there (i constantly ...
