Jazz, Salsa, Reggae, Reggaton, Hip Hop, Dance, Country, Big Band Swing, Rock, Oldies, Easy Listening, some alternative... I even enjoy a little gospel every now and then (sssshhhhhhhhhh). And my biggest, most humiliating secret... I love Radio Disney and I kinda dig Hillary Duff aka Lizzie McGuire. It's sad when you get really excited about answering a Disney trivia question right... and the kids got out of the car a long time ago...

The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new. ~Rajneesh
I am the Queenie Mama, the grand kisser of boo-boos and ultimate healer of hurt feelings. I reign over Tyler (6/96, space enthusiast, 7th grade), Halle (8/99, dance enthusiast, 4th grade), and Daija (12/02, my artsy child, 1st grade) and I'm also a bonus mama to Riyah and Bri. The kids and I are practicing Unitarian Universalists (still trying to get it right LOL).
We live in the beautiful Sonoran desert. When I’m not ruling the roost, I work for an airline. We all love to travel, and my work has enabled the kids to visit many places and experience other US ‘subcultures’.
Who I'd like to meet:
OK, chances are none of those folks pictured are hanging out at myspace, so I should add that I'd like to reconnect with old friends and meet new people with similar interests and values. I use myspace to keep in touch with friends and family, primarily through my blog. I'm not interested in having random clip art posted in my comments, and I'm not going to promote your band, product, or business ventures. I'm also not interested helping anyone win a popularity contest by being your 700th friend... if you think we have a common interest and plan to initiate some dialogue, send me a message. I don't mind adding guys as friends, but a gal's gotta be careful. If I don't already know you, please send an email stating your honorable intentions!
Hey momma...I'm back. I lost my Pappy, he went to see Jesus two days after my Nanny's 'terminal' cancer went in to remission. It's been tough. Almost called ya a time or two. Miss you!
How oh how...do you always know? I will message you my new numbers. Very few people have that six sense child. Miss you and check your message. LOVE YOU!
