1. Music is a very important part of my life. I love live shows and concerts, but I don't get to do this as much as I want to. I am a movieholic. I love going to the theater or curling up on the couch at home and watching a movie. I love action/adventure movies full of explosions all the way to the most romantic chick flicks. I am not big into horror films. Sorry guys. Photography is my passion. I would love to do this professionally one day, but right now it's just a hobby. You can capture a memory in that lense, freeze a moment in time. I love that.

2. I would truly like to go back to school one of these days to study photography. It's amazing how time gets away from you in your everyday life. I would like to take a vacation and go to Italy again or Australia. I know a vacation is a strange goal, but I haven't had one in years.

3. I am a pretty upbeat person. It takes a lot to get me down. I wouldn't go so far as peppy, but definitely an optimist. I love animals. I have a Chinese Sharpei named Little Suzi. She is my baby. My friends and family are my life.

4. My music tastes vary from Rock, Classic Rock, Hard Rock, Metal. I could be listening to Pantera one minute and throw in Elton John, Stevie Nicks, or Duran Duran the next. I am a child of the 80's. I love the Hair Bands too. I do not like Rap at all. I have to admit, since I have lived in Nashville, some country is growing on me. The more Southern rock/Country is not bad.

5. I am very conservative in my political beliefs. I fully support our military who are fighting for our freedom everyday. One of my closest friends just returned from serving in Iraq. My best friend's son is currently serving in Qatar. No matter your beliefs always support those who protect you.

6. I appreciate honesty and chemistry. If we meet and it doesn't work out, it's okay. I am a big girl.

7. I have never been married and I have no children. I just haven't found the right one yet and I refuse to settle. If I were to find the right one and know for sure, I might consider children someday.

8. I have been asked if I play any sports. I played softball in high school does that count? : ) I can play pool and I can bowl. I wouldn't say I'm particularly good at either one, but it can be fun. If you're in a bowling league and you take all games seriously, we probably shouldn't play...haha. I would like to try to ski and sky dive one of these days. I am learning to try new things the older I get. Adventure is a good thing.

9. I am addicted to the treadmill. I am doing three and a half miles every other day currently. It helps with your stress and just makes you feel better.

10. I am currently working two jobs over the Christmas season. It helps with the bills, so unfortunately my time is very limited. I do have some free nights so if you've read this far and you're interested just ask.

I think a first date should involve going to a place where you could talk and get to know each other. I love movies, but you have to save that for a little further down the line. You could always miniature golf or go for coffee. It would be nice to find someone who still believes in Chivalry, open a car door, pull out a chair for me, pick up a check. If I lived close to the ocean (which I love) I would say a picnic by the beach would be a great first date. I love creativity in this department. Use your imagination, guys!!
