"God, you can keep the rest of my spare change. I just want my DIME back."

About Me

My name is Shannon. I was born and raised in Irving and have lived here all my life, except for about 3 months in 1994, when I moved out to LA,CA. I'm an animal lover. I have 2 cats. I am very fascinated with wolves. I've been in the photo lab business for 19 years. I am also into the Native-American culture. I love the DALLAS COWBOYS!!! I love to go white-water rafting (in Colorado & Montana) and horseback riding. I love to go out to the clubs to see local bands play.Being from the D/FW area, I began seeing PANTERA in 1988, when they were playing small clubs (Dallas City Limits, The Basement, Joe's Garage, Metal Works, etc.). It was love at first sound. Being into photography, I have many photos from those early 'old school' days. Over those years, I got to know the band on a personal basis. I partied with them on numerous occasions. Those were the best years of my life. On June 4, 2007, I had gastric bypass surgery and have done very well. I have dropped 150 lbs. I feel like I'm 25 again. lol. After I reach my 2 year post-op, I will be having my 2nd surgery (a tummy tuck), as well as a complete hair/make-up makeover.
