About Me

myspace layouts for Get this layout for your myspace page.

My Interests

Music, snow skiing, travel, hair products.....anything to do with hair......

I'd like to meet:

George Clooney, George W. (mainly to yell at him), Mozart, Mary Magdelene, Oprah, Robert Redford, Billy Joel, Martha Stewart (my hero), Saul, Jesus (just to feel the love IN PERSON, Bill Clinton, Robin Williams, Abe Lincoln

Music:

Most anything with melody - so that excludes hard rock and rap. (I REALLY don't get rap....really, I don't. Speaking in rhythm is NOT talent.) I love Jamie Cullum and Rascal Flatts, Renee Flemming is THE VOICE of our time, and Tim McGraw is fabulous. I love John Mayer but don't like his latest album...too commercial.

Movies:

The Way We Were, When Harry Met Sally, Pretty Woman, Brokeback Mountain, Crash, the original Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (the Johnny Depp version frightens me...seriously)

Television:

Television is mindless entertainment...and that's about it. I like House, What Not to Wear, Oprah, SuperNanny, and my very shameful admission, Nip Tuck. American Idol is TRAGIC this season...don't waste your time watching it.

Books:

I love to read but don't do it during the school year very much. I'm a book hound in the summer and on vacations. Obama's Audacity of Hope is a must read for anyone who doubts!

Heroes:

Anyone who works hard to make a difference in this world and doesn't complain about it. Connie Sanchez probably tops that list. I admire anyone who chooses to raise children and does it well. Renee Norris, Brad White, and Missy Matthews top that list. I admire my colleagues that work hard to make a difference in kids' lives...there are so many young, enthusiastic teachers at Haltom right now that I'm inspired!
