Self-Description: Believe it or not, I don't have a hair trigger temper...blame that
on my mother. She and I had several "attitude adjustment"
sessions during my formative years. Now, it takes quite a
bit to piss me off and I will generally warn you that you are
treading on thin ice. However, if you are stupid enough not to
heed my warning, and it's your own danged fault, so beware the
wrath of the extremely pissed off redhead. Stupidity is one of
the few things highly annoys me from the start. Ignorance can be
overcome, but stupidity goes all the way to the bone. Messing
around with children and other people who can't defend themselves is
also not smart when I'm around. I tend to think that my personality is
unobtrusive, that is until I get to know you. Then for some strange
reason, I become this loud, obnoxious, psycho woman about whom
you seriously question my sanity. (Personally, I think sanity is the
playground for the unimaginative.) Vaguely intellectual when I
choose to apply myself, which is rare since I got out of high school,
I read most everything I can get my childlike hands on, including the phone
book. However, I prefer Robert Jordan, Nora Roberts, Andrew Greeley, and most
recently, Anne McAffrey. I occasionally write poetry and make weak attempts at
sketching. My real artistic interests lie in singing, at which my family says I'm pretty
good, and photography, at which I think I'm pretty good. Oh, just because I live
outside Nashville, does NOT mean the only music I listen to is country. Country
makes up less than half of my CD collection. There's everything from country to "old
school (80's)" rap to classical to Christian to heavy/industrial metal to classic rock
(Eagles & Kansas & the like) to Celtic (of which I can't get enough recently) to
Disney (I'm simply mad about the mouse.) I really enjoy being outside as long as
there are no snakes around. I have a completely illogical but paralytic fear of the
creatures. I like looking at/staring out over/zoning out while listening to most any
body of water, although I prefer small creeks to the ocean because being near the
ocean always means a sunburn is in the immediate future. Yes, I have the requisite
freckles all over my body, and only a few people can tell you exactly how much is all. ;)
Often teased by classmates for my hair color, body shape/weight, and intellect, I
have since come to accept all of them since that's just me.
Interests: As previously mentioned reading and music make up a large
part of my life. I also, among my computer challenged friends
and relatives, am a computer junkie. I have always been fascinated
by how things work and often take stuff apart just to see if I can
put it back together correctly, especially cars and small appliances.
I am particularly interested in how the human mind works and
processes information. But that interest wouldn't have anything
to do with the fact I was a Psychology major with Criminology
minor, now would it? (And to think, when I started college, I was
an accounting major. Yech!) Unfortunately, a college degree
wasn't meant to be for me. So now, I'm working. =/
