About Me

I am married with two of my own children, a boy and a girl, and two stepsons. I have a Rottweiler, who is the biggest baby in the known world, and a cat who terrorizes the crap out of her! We also have fish, and a little female ferret. Welcome to my zoo!

My Interests

I love to read, especially fantasy and horror. I also like to go boating and fishing, riding motorcycles and 4-wheelers, camping and hiking, white water rafting, singing karaoke with my sissy, and spending time with my family. Oh yeah, I also love video games, especially the Final Fantasy series!

I'd like to meet:

Well, I've met one of my FAVORITE bands, Zero Hour, and hope I get to meet other bands that I admire and enjoy listening to. My husband calls me a middle-aged groupie, but SO WHAT!!! I'm not sleeping with any of these people, I'm just ROCKING OUT TO THE MUSIC!!! HORNS UP EVERYBODY!!

Music:

In no particular order: Dream Theater, Symphony X, Zero Hour, Ayreon (Arjen's the best!), After Forever, Kamelot, Ghost Circus, Pain of Salvation, Shadow Gallery, To-Mera, Evergrey, Pagan's Mind, Queensryche, The Quill, Nickelback, Linkin Park, and Tool just to name a few of my favorites. I've been getting a lot of friend requests from some really good bands on here, so my list of favorites is bound to grow!

Movies:

I like all kinds of movies, especially SCI-FI.

Television:

AMERICAN IDOL!!! CSI (the original), Bones, Stargate SG1, Stargate Atlantis, House, Miami Ink, Mythbusters, Dirty Jobs (Mike Roe, you're my hero! LOL!), and Two and a Half Men (Gotta love the housekeeper!).

Books:

All of the Harry Potter books, Stephen King (especially the Dark Tower series and The Stand, they were my favorites), Ursula LeGuin, Anne McCaffrey, Garth Nix, Mercedes Lackey, and anything by Anne Rice. I've been trying to branch out, so if you know any good fantasy or horror, let me know!

Heroes:

My husband, Todd, because he takes such good care of all of us, and gives me all the love and support when I need it most. And yes, I try to give it back ;)My parents for putting up with my shit for the 18 years I lived with them, then for the other times when I came back because I didn't have my shit together! Love you guys!AND I had to add Ms. Anita Renfroe for her wonderful song about what moms tell their children EVERY DAY!! Check out her songMomsense!

Middle Aged

The other night my son asked me how old I was.  I looked at him a little funny, because I thought he knew, so I told him, "I'm 34. Why?"  He then proceeded to tell me that I am MIDDLE AGED!!...

Clam Digging!

We love fresh clams, and the digs aren't opened very often, but when they are thousands of people flock to the beaches to hunt down the ever elusive Pacific Razor Clam!  My husband and I decided ...

What does my name mean?

I've seen several bulletins posted by people asking "What does your name mean?" and they all give a funny or outrageous saying for each letter of the alphabet, and the object is to see if your name fi...

Quitting

It's amazing how easy it is to start smoking, and even more amazing how difficult it is to quit.  You hear people say it all the time, but seriously, it's the hardest thing I have ever done in my...

There’s no such thing as Santa

My little girl scares me sometimes.  No, seriously, she is way smarter than she should be at 6, and she never misses a thing!  Just the other day she brought me a miniature Christmas stockin...

Customer Service

I was grocery shopping today with my stepson and daughter. I hate grocery shopping. It's one of the few things you spend the most amount of money on only to have to do it all over again the follo...
