I am sweet, artsy, and sassy.

My Self-Summary

I love cats and cool sunny fall days. I love apple orchards and spending the day with my family on the boat getting a lil' bit sunburned. I love to knit and do pottery and dabble in painting and writing. I read everything I can get my hands on (as long as it's fiction!). There is never a day when I don't spend at least 1/2 hr. reading something!

I have a passion for all things French. I love to travel, specifically by car so you can see everything! I am afraid of spiders and scary movies. I am outspoken and blunt sometimes to a fault :) I am fiercely loyal to my friends and family. I'm also a bit of a feminist!

I have a strange weakness for swedish fish and my sweet kitties, Stella and Sophie.

What I’m doing with my life

I graduated from Michigan State University (MSU) with a degree in English w/ cognates in French and Sociology in 2003. I just finished my Masters Degree in Higher Education Administration in the College of Education at MSU.

I just started a job at the University of New Mexico so I'm new to the Albuquerque area!

I’m really good at

Hmmmm...

Putting people at ease

A card game called Euchre (which you won't know of unless you are from Michigan)

Artsy stuff: writing, knitting, pottery, singing (though I don't sing in public! I've sworn off karaoke since an unfortunate incident years ago involving tequila and Garth Brooks' "Friends in Low Places"....)

Making children laugh... kids just love me :)

The first things people usually notice about me

I'm a gregarious person, friendly, outgoing, and easily approachable. I have a cute little piercing in my nose, as it is on my face, I imagine people notice that as well (even though it took several CLOSE friends almost two months to notice I even did it years ago)...

Also, my eyes never look quite the same color... Sometimes they are very very green w/ gold flecks, sometimes gray, sometimes blue-ish? Strange mood-ring eyes.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books: The Kushiel Trilogy by Jacqueline Carey, Atonement by Ian McEwan, the Griffin and Sabine books by Nick Bantock, Empire Falls by Richard Russo, The Red Tent by Anita Diamant, Harry Potter (all) by J.K. Rowling, anything by Dean Koontz, The Footprints of God by Greg Iles, anything by Pearl Cleage, The Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings trilogy by J.R.R. Tolkien, The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver, White Oleander by Janet Fitch, the list could go on, literally, forever....

Movies: Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Almost Famous, Braveheart, Harry Potter movies, The Matrix (only the first one, the rest were okay but not great), Empire Records, Love Actually, Saved, In Her Shoes, and lots and lots more....

Music: Barenaked Ladies, Tori Amos, James Taylor, DMB, Counting Crows, Alanis Morrisette, Billy Joel, Jimmy Buffett, The Eagles, Tom Petty, Rascal Flatts, Sarah McLachlan, Ryan Adams, lots of Alternative and a bit of Country...

Foods: anything chicken :), swedish fish candy, popcorn, green peppers, corn on the cob, french dip sandwiches, and chicken alfredo pizzas from Spagnuolos...

The six things I could never do without

1) books - I never go a day without reading 2) my adorable cats - they keep life interesting 3) my family - they are my anchor and rock 4) my ipod - music keeps me sane 5) friends - good friends that have been there through everything are priceless 6) bubble baths - grad school is crazy enough, bubble baths help me de-stress AND smell/feel lovely and pampered.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

New Mexico.... The current political/social climate in the U.S., my hell-raising sister, movies, books I'm reading/have read, friends, family, happiness and living a simple (NOT BORING), good life.

On a typical Friday night I am

Gathered with a small group of friends around a bottle of wine (or pints of beer), watching a movie, out and about, or all of the above, just not at once.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I watch the History Channel for fun... :)

You should message me if

you can laugh at yourself, have an open mind about full figured ladies, love to try new things and share things you love with others, like (or can tolerate pets of the feline persuasion), like to read, enjoy movies and cultural events, and love a sometimes sarcastic woman who can hold her own in a conversation.
