ive been described as a bitch, lol, really im just guarded and aloof and maybe too quick to tell someone where they can stick their bloody opinions(read: i am a bitch)
i am about 5'1", about 115lbs, give or take 10. shoulder length, very dark hair, dyed very red w/ thick blond streaks, have to say my eyes are brown, but theyre kindof reddish yellow really(not as scary as it sounds)
i have two kids, both boys, aged two and four. theyre fantastic, they keep me going, they are my life...but not my whole life.
im 24, divorced, and have a pretty recent bf, who's great, actually baking me a cheesecake ri now :biggrin:
im a full-time student again(lets try this again, shall we?)
im from texas..still live in texas...but id have a log cabin in british columbia if i had it my way...but i dont
im bi-sexual...hmmm...still feels weird to be so open about that
close to my whole family, but i have an amazing relationship w/ my mum and step-dad. lots of step- siblings, some really great, some can kiss my white ass.
ok...favourites, this'll be fun :)
Music: Tori Amos, Ani Difranco, Jewel, Alanis, most classic rock, a lot of hard rock(80's/90's hair bands rule!) 60's hippie-rock
Expression: "bugger off, asswipe!" "well, fuck you, too, buddy"
Movies: Lost and Delirious, American Beauty, Fried Green Tomatoes, Monty Python(all), One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest...thats all i can think of, im sure ive forgotten a couple
Books: wow...lots, lets go with...
Books i am reading right now: Imajica, by Clive Barker, Why I Am Not a Christian, by Bertrand Russell, Still Life with Woodpecker, by Tom Robbins...random others, Anne Rice, Stephen King...
Favourite Alcoholic drink: hmmm, i have a lot of faves, my old standby is rum and coke...but id much prefer a joint to a drink anyway...
Have i ever been in love?: um, yes, once...but i didnt do anything about it.(i made it my responsibility to protect her from her fundie family :( )
Glass half full or half empty?: depend on whats in the glass, lol. about 'hoomanity' in general, i tend to be rather cynical. but when it comes to myself, personal ability and accomplishments, ive been described as "positive almost to the point of delusion" :biggrin:
ok...enough..i may come add later. jeez, im pretty boring, huh?

A bit about me.
I am in my late 20's. I have blond hair and blue eyes. 5'5 1/2 and 115lbs.
I have a great and supportive family, whom I live with and have dinner with every night. I have a wonderful boyfriend who is also living here. We are moving out in a few weeks, back on our own. I am scared.
I have a dog, a beautiful, strong and brave girl, whom I spoil even more than I spoil my own self. I drive a convertible. Sushi is my favorite food. I love clothes, and spend a lot on them. I especially love Lilly Pulitzer clothes, and other happy clothes. I have a million pairs of sandals. Winter is my least favorite part of the year, and summer is wonderful. Running is a big part of my life, but it gives me injuries. I am a teacher and I love my job and my students so much. Especially now that I am on summer vacation :)
Now that I am on summer vacation, I am able to see all of my WonderfulWonderful friends a bit more, and that makes me happy and smile.
I love to travel. I've been to many different places, and though I am not up for it now, I will be. A trip to England is will be my starting point. I figure that is easier than going somewhere where I don't know the language.
I love to cook. I Mark Bittman's How to Cook Everything is my favorite cookbook, and I recommend it to the worst and best cooks out there.
I am in counseling. I see a Crisis Counselor once a week, and my boyfriend grudgingly goes to therapy with me once a week. It's helped me and us immeasurably.
I love my life. What's happened has been a road block, but it's an opportunity for growth, and I've taken advantage of it. I am a stronger person than I was two months ago.
I am so happy to have met all of you.
Who are You?
