I am here for Friends

About Me

We are finally settled back in San Antonio where we belong! The kids are loving it and so are we...Nicolas is starting kindergarten and Emily is going to be in morning preschool. I am going to have a clean house and finally have time to scrapbook, sew, and do the rest of my artsy fartsy stuff. Once I have instate residency again I will finish up school; only been trying to do that for the past 10 years!

My Interests

Art history, drawing in charcoal and pencil, creating scrapbooks of pictures to pass on to future generations, sewing, making jewelry, reading anything I can get my hands on, getting lost in music, going out with friends, spending time with family of course, playing xbox360 and our brand new Wii, playing on the computer, my secret love affair with photoshop... ..

I'd like to meet:

People I knew at one time but lost contact with! I have loved hearing from those that I haven't heard from in 10+years! Anyone who likes to relax and have a good time! I am way too laid back and lazy for high maintenance types! If you play xbox360 my handle is IllinoisChelly!

Music:

I can find something redeeming in most any music; My favorites are really good techo mixes, good heavy metal and finding new hole in the wall bands no one has ever heard-that is the best music...

Movies:

The stranger the better for me! Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill, Fargo, and the Goonies!

Television:

NCIS and The Office for now...Lately I can usually find something more productive to do than watch TV.

Books:

The Bell Jar, Jane Eyre, true crime, in all honesty I can't think of anything I won't read...www.paperbackswap.com

Heroes:

Meatwad, cuz he gets the honeys and makes the moneys, but Frylock is kinda sex-ay in that french fry kind of way...
