Don't let the truth get in the way (of a good story)

About Me


I make mistakes. That's what I do.

I speak without thinking.

I act without knowing.

I drink so much that I can barely walk.

I'm a fantastic lover, though

and an amazing friend.

My Interests

Music, family, writing, ren faires,

Music:


Brobdingnagian Bards, Pandora Celtica, um.... all things celtic and/or country with just a little comedy to make it more normal.

I love, love, love the Renaissance Festival Podcast, Irish and Celtic music Podcast, Manic Mondays podcast, and the Mad Music Hour Podcast.

Shadows Bind is an awesome band with a very sexy bass player.

Celtic Thunder is awesome! Click on the widget! You'll agree with me!

Movies:

Princess Bride, The Importance of Being Earnest, Much Ado About Nothing, Spaceballs, um... everything Mel Brooks has done essentially. Chronicles of Narnia, The Emperors New Groove, and Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie, Mr. Magoriums Wonder Emporium, The French Lieutenants Woman (I don't know why, don't ask, but I've been obsessing lately).

Television:

I don't watch T.V. However, I watch dvd's of tv shows. Current favs: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Scrubs, House, Yes Minister, Yes Prime Minister, Black Adder and The Dresden Files.(I can't wait for the southern vamp series to come out!!)

Books:

Too many to list so I'll just do authors. Terry Pratchett, Mercedes Lackey, Laurell K Hamilton, Charlaine Harris... many more but those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

Heroes:

Mary Kay Ash, my mom (insert obligatory eye roll here), Johnette Shealy, Karol Anton and Laurell K Hamilton.

Judging me?

What the hell makes people think they have the right to judge me? Really? At what point does anybody think they can say, "I know you well enough to make judgments about your life"? There are some peop...

Proof of God... 21st century style!

I will start with this statement: I have always believed in God. There was never a time in my life that I didn't know that He existed. Oh, I had doubts, as all teenagers do, about whether or not he ...
