About me

Location Acadiana, Louisiana, United States
Introduction I'm a SAHM with 2 kiddos that are 8 1/2 years apart. Wait - my brother and I are 10 years apart and fought ALL the time. WHAT WAS I THINKING?!?!? Let's see... I used to think I was reasonably intelligent, but now I see that my brain is 99% full of useless knowledge like song lyrics from the 80's & 90's. And how to play (and beat) old video games. (Wait, my 11 year old thinks that's cool...)
Interests Reading, travelling, sleeping (as if!), messing around online, entering sweepstakes, hopefully WINNING a sweepstakes, having a clean, organized house (HA!), etc.
Favorite Movies Too...many...to...list!! You think I'm kidding? Okay - you asked for it: pretty much all the 80's romantic comedies, ALL the Pixar movies, Juno, Last of the Mohicans, Bend it Like Beckham, The Matrix, The Shawshank Redemption, Clerks, Forrest Gump, Sneakers, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Chocolat, Like Water for Chocolate, Shakespere in Love, Schindler's List, The Sound of Music, The King and I, When Harry Met Sally, Oceans 11, The Bourne Trilogy, The Italian Job, Madagascar, Ice Age, Patch Adams, Good Will Hunting, Sleepless in Seattle, Fried Green Tomatoes, Dances With Wolves, Ferris Bueller's Day Off...
Favorite Music Dave Matthews Band, Sarah McLachlan, Tori Amos, John Mayer (1st album mostly), Pink Floyd, The Police/Sting, Peter Gabriel, Billy Joel, Indigo Girls, Coldplay, Cake, Barenaked Ladies, U2...
Favorite Books I'm loving Jodi Picoult right now (esp. My Sister's Keeper, Keeping Faith, Ninteen Minutes, etc.) I also love just about anything by Amy Tan, Barbara Kingsolver (esp. Prodigal Summer), Robin McKinley (esp. The Hero and the Crown and The Blue Sword), The Stand and Firestarter by Stephen King, The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khalil Houssein, all the 'Time' books by Madeline L'Engle, ALL the Harry Potter books by J.K. Rowling, everything by Jane Green (esp. Bookends), all of Emily Giffen's books, most everything by Bill Bryson (esp. In a Sunburned Country), Water for Elephants.... (and lots more - I LOVE to read!)

The love potion you made tastes terrible. How will you drink it?

Add vanilla syrup to it. ANYTHING tastes better when you add vanilla syrup. There, I said it. NOT CHOCOLATE - *VANILLA*!!
