About Me

Hey y'all!! I've finally entered into the cult which is referred to as "myspace." To be honest, I wasn't all that much of a fan of doing the 'trendy' thing, but after Shawn got it and I kept asking him to look up people for me...I got sucked in! I decided that after we moved, I would make my own account...then I can leave messages to you and make me feel special and missed by adding some to my page! ha! (Pictures are on its way...I have to reformat the pics we have)Well, about me. I'm not much to talk about myself so this will be short~~I am happily married to a man who thinks I am the most beautiful and goofiest girl around...and his intense biceps, smile and almond shapes eyes are definitely nothing to complain about. His personality is wonderful and keeps me entertained and on my toes daily. Um, did I mention his biceps? Yeah, they're nice.We just moved from cold Michigan to sizzling hot North Carolina so that we can double our income! I am excited to finally be a teacher and learn sooo much from those cute little first graders!I have the best friends that a girl could ask for and will consider myself incredibly blessed just to find friends half as cool and crazy as the ones I already have! Love you all!

I'd like to meet:

I would love to meet some peeps in Fayetteville. Shawn and I are in the process of finding a church and trying to fit into one that will also have kids our age that are not busting out kids themselves!! :)

Music:

Oooh, well thanks to Holly, I am in lOOOooOoov-uh with Fiona Apple's latest CD, "Extraordinary Machine"~~~Eisley is also up there with their hypnotic rhythms and ridiculous lyrics~~~Coldplay is great...I just have to ignore the fact that he enunciates his hard kay sound so much I can feel his spit on me through the iPod~~~But I have to say that I enjoy the ladies...Pink brings back good memories~~~Nelly Furtado~~~Regina Spektor is funky...good in small doses~~~OH! And Chemical Brothers rock! I wanna dance to THAT!

Movies:

In no particular order but recall...Batman Returns~~~Amy's O~~~Dirty Filthy Love~~~Boondocks Saints~~~Mickey Blue Eyes~~~So I Married an Ax Murderer~~~Memento~~~March of the Penguins (AH!! JUST KIDDING!! Checking if you're really reading this!)~~~Finding Neverland~~~Real Women have Curves~~~House of D~~~MirrorMask~~~Motorcycle Diaries~~~City of God~~~Born into Brothels~~~Tipping the Velvet, and I am sure I will love Hollywoodland when it comes out!!

Television:

Well, we are doing the no cable thing, but before, I shamefully admit, I enjoyed a little "Desperate Housewives" every now and then~~~Through Netflicks, I've fallen in love with "Arrested Development" and "Firefly." Why do all the awesome unique shows get cancelled?? Hmph~~~Today Show is a great way to wake up!! Heehee~~~But, let's be honest. I get my dose of humor and news from NPR!! I know, I know, it's not television, but God bless public radio anyways!

Books:

I have several faves, but at the current moment only one book deserves to be highlighted in here~~~The best book I have read recently is "UGLIES" by Scott Westerfeld. It's a young adult book, but man, I could not put that thing down. The images in my head while reading this book was fantastic, so vivid and movie-like. I would not have picked it up had I known it was the first of a trilogy. But I am sooo glad I did! It's set in the future, hundreds of years from now, and definitely a DISTOPIA...which happens to be my FAVORITE genre, you know, like "The Giver" "1984" "Brave New World" If you have ANY suggestions for books (movies and music too!) pass them on!! I will read them after I finish the other two in this trilogy!! Read them! You'll love it!

Heroes:

Shawn~~for putting up with me everyday...and all day, now that we only have each other down here!~~~and let us not forget the most incredible hero of all...Jesus Christ. Without Him this world would be in even worse conditions and I would lack all self worth! He is THE MAN who created the 'pay if forward' concept! God bless Him...Wait! uh, yo confuso.

Is this for real??!

I'm a little stressed out right now, feeling the weight of my responsibilities on my weak, insecure frame. I need some counsel and support and lack it at the moment. Hopefully when things begin to mov...
