Books
I love to read. And I read a lot of books of varying genres.
I'm in my mid-twenties. I live in a small city where nothing much happens. I work as a waitress in a BBQ restaurant to make ends meet. I love learning, books, music, movies, and above all, my boyfriend, Matt. I have a beloved pet Italian Greyhound named Oliver that is truly my furry child. I'm not currently a student, but I hope to go back to college soon to get a Bachelor's Degree in Literature, Philosophy, or History (I haven't decided which yet). I am a fairly "political" person, and my views are very much of the liberal persuasion. My latest obsession is crossword puzzles. I'm determined to get better at them and have been working them all the time. I tend to be a homebody as most of the things I enjoy doing are indoor activities. I have a small, close group of friends that I love. I'm close to my family, and visit them whenever I get a chance. I live a simple life, but I like it that way.
I "blog" at Live Journal instead of here, if anyone cares to take a peek.
If you want to see how far my obsession with my dog has progressed, check out the Flikr.com site I've made for him.
happy tuesday..i guess. i didn't end up going to the parade this weekend. we were lazy! let's try to see a show together. nothing like friends and music. perfect combination. have a good week :)
oh desiree! i'm really sorry to hear that. i'll have to read and find out what happened.
i would LOVE to hang out. i remember whedon's class and get-togethers at shannons house. i miss that stuff. i actually see heather muir quite a bit randomly, here and there. i will look for you at the parade! i think i may go as well because erick lives downtown and we can bring our pup!! hope to see ya.
holy crap! that was amazing. my bf and i always see the boxset when we go to target. def. need to check that out, asap! i love zack. and sarah silverman. both of their dvds are hilarious. hope your children are well. :)
If indeed this is not based on yet more bad intelligence, if it truly is almost your birthday, VR&HOU say: Please, go—NOW, for Heaven’s sake—and have a flippin’ fantastic one!
greets desi! hope you've had a good year. i'm now running ubuntu, which is dork speak for "my computer no longer plays games."
that's right, i'm over that accursed game for once and for all. my vow is to only get back around to it, or any other like it, when my house is full of paintings i've made. a courageous goal.
well, here's hoping you, matt, maya, and oliver are having a blast! make sure you do something blasphemous to that nearby fundie school before the year is out. ~_^
hey desiree i'm so sorry i didn't get back to you on the message thing i can be like that at times with people but it's nothing personal. but naw i'm not doing much this summer... but i might go traveling around the uk or meet up with some friends who i haven't met before who live like 700 miles away. have a truly bodatious day! josh
I had never been "cute pwnd" before!! Thank you for once again adding to my life experiences. From coos coos, to cute pwnage, I can always count on you to keep me grounded.
MySpace Comments Graphics Not sure if this took when I posted it before, Desiree; but they deleted the other image from my previous comment to you....figures!
