Honestly, what can I say here? I'm one of the coolest people you'll ever get to know - assuming you get to know me. I may be a bit shy at first, but don't let that fool you. I've been told I look mean (it's the eyes) so don't mess with me. I'm a bad ass roller girl manager and I stick up for my girls.
Here's a bit more about me:
You are Marilyn Monroe
A classic tortured beauty
You're the dream girl of many men
Yet they never seem to treat you right
A pirate's life isn't easy; it takes a tough person. That's okay with you, though, since you a tough person. You can be a little bit unpredictable, but a pirate's life is far from full of certainties, so that fits in pretty well. Arr!
The Wench Aboard Sex? Yes Please! You tend to stay locked up in your cabin awaiting your lover! You also forget your head in the clouds, of Romance Novels. You take what life has to offer and deal with it. Whether it involves being kidnapped by Pirates...or shoveling the water out of your room aboard the ship. You flirt with anything that moves and hate to be lonely. As long as you keep your wits about you, you actually can be quite charming.
Lust- Sex is a major part of your life. You don't love, only chase tail. You will make love to the wrong person and end up with an STD. Take this quiz!
Who I'd like to meet: Cool people...not people who just think they are cool, but people who are genuinely awesome.
I know some pretty kick ass people already (just peep my friends list), but feel free to ask me for an add. One rule is that my Number 1 spot belongs to Tom. He's the biggest Myspace whore and he deserves it.
Last month's semifinal game between Scare Force One and the Cherry Blossom Bombshells came down to a nail-biting double overtime, and the Bombshells are trying to carry that momentum to vanquish the fierce DC DemonCats, who haven't lost a game since October. This exciting season championship matchup will be the last DC Rollergirls home game until the fall, so don't miss out!
In addition, fans can watch an expo matchup between Scare Force One and the River City Rollergirls of Richmond, VA, and check out Jason Leffler's #38 NASCAR showcar. Plus, in honor of Mother's Day, moms will get a gift at the door!
It's tailgating season, so come early to Stadium/Armory Lot 3 and get a head start on the fun! The lot opens at 3 p.m.

I've been thinking about you too! I started reading the Twilight series (because you did!) and I love it so far! I just started New Moon a few days ago. =D
I just got word Sunday that I will be returning to film Rollercon this year independently and exclusively, in direct cooperation with Rollercon and the WFTDA.
For those of you that don't know me, I am the official videographer for the Charm City Rollergirls, and I was part of last year's film crew shooting for Rollercon Films. I ended up editing the last 2 films as well, Rollercon-The Movie and the Team Rad v. Team Awesome Bouts. (I am told DVDs will be available at Rollercon, but I am not in charge of that or the Rollercon Films pay per view download website or distribution, please email any inquiries about downloads from last year to capella@defining.com)
Due to the last minute arrangements and lack of funding I have no crew other than myself and Jenn. I am looking for volunteers to help shoot the Fremont Street challenge bouts, and the WFTDA sanctioned bouts at Desert Breeze. I will be bringing a few handycams along with the 2 pro cameras Jenn and I use now, but if anyone has a nice 3CCD chip camera and can help us that would be even more super amazingly awesome! I will possibly have 1 nice camera available as well, but it is not mine and can only entrust it to an experienced operator.
The bouts are 20 minutes long, and I just need someone preferably with knowledge of the game to follow the action for the duration of the bout without starting and stopping the tape. It doesn't matter if you have a great shot the whole time, that's why I need as many cameras as possible there to cover the action close up.
I have no budget, but you will get credit for shooting, and if you help out for multiple bouts I'll buy you a big fruity drink and rub your feet. (Nonsexual)
