~J.J. in L.A.~ Her "Royal Gimpness"'s Interests
General
I enjoy travel and destinations, nature, photography...
reading, swimming, card/board games, computers (learning HTML), scrapbooking, x-stitching..., and much more. I'm pretty much open to anything as long as
I'm comfortable.
Music
Classic Rock, well...ROCKS! Pink Floyd, Styx, Queen, Supertramp, Pat Benatar, Fleetwood Mac, Elton John, ELO, YES, The Doors, Journey, Stevie Wonder, INXS, Stone Temple Pilots.
Movies
Sex, Lies and Videotape, A Christmas Story, Benny & Joon, Raising Arizona, Always, The Dead Zone, The Gods Must Be Crazy, The Princess Bride, Edward Scissorhands, There's Something About Mary (the crutch scene is just TOO funny), While You Were Sleeping, Finding Nemo, Little Miss Sunshine.
You Are 'The Moon'
Hope, Expectations, and Promises.
The Moon is a card of magic and mystery - nothing is as it seems, particularly when it concerns relationships. All logic is thrown out the window. Trust your intuition.
You are 67% Cancer
Television
Soap, Cheers, Frasier, Friends, Everybody Loves Raymond, Becker, Will & Grace, South Park, Tripping the Rift (lasted just 2 seasons - thank goodness for DVD's!), Boston Legal, Grey's Anatomy. I also like A&E, DSC, and History Channel. I'm addicted to Court TV (now Tru TV) during the day and comedy re-runs til 3 am.
What South Park Character Are You?
TIIIMMMAAAYYY!!!
People Love You!!!
Don't you feel special?
He's in a wheelchair.
I'm in a wheelchair.
What are the odds?
Jooodddaaayyy!!!
Books
My favorite authors are Dean Koontz, Ann Rule and (some) Stephen King. The best book EVER is the unabridged version (1,000+ pages) of "The Stand" by S.K.
Which Happy Bunny Are You?
Heroes
My mom because she raised 7 kids and none of us are in jail!
Stevie Wonder because he didn't let his disability stop him from becoming a musical genius.
Have a GREAT day!

It'll consist of longer blogs than the ones I write here.
A few important things about me:
I was born, raised and am living in , USA. I'm a female in my (almost) mid-40's but, thanks to good family genes, I don't LOOK it!
I'm sometimes silly, always sarcastic and the stupidest things crack me up. I'm also quite good at coming up with a snarky remark when the need arises. Once, I was asked (by the school smart@$$), "What would you do if I grabbed that crutch out from under you?" I replied, "Smack you with the other one." I couldn't have done it without falling flat on my face...but 'he' didn't know that. And suddenly, *I* became the school smart@$$. Sometimes people still grace me with that nickname and I take it as the compliment they obviously mean it to be.
I was born with a condition called Spina Bifida and have been a wheelchair user since June 1994 - but I don't let it slow me down. In fact, I 'enjoy' going down hills!
I also enjoy the few perks...like being able to park where I can unload my w/c, although, that's getting harder and harder to do. It seems like everyone, and their mother, has a placard. It probably IS their mother's, or some other relative.
Since this is a HUGE pet peeve of mine, my boyfriend created a website - Disabled Parking Violations - dedicated to the insensitivity of selfish and ignorant people who decide that it's okay to break the law. Click on the sign to check it out...
Fav Quote: "COURAGE IS THE ABILITY TO HIDE THE FACT THAT YOU'RE SCARED TO DEATH."
The reason? I've had 21 surgeries and some people have called me 'courageous'. But because of my record (I'm still here, after all!) and my deep faith in God, I'm not
scared, whatsoever. In fact, a friend was going in for an operation and our conversation went like this...Me: "At least you can sleep in your own bed the night before you go in." She: "Yeah, that's nice but I'm not going to 'get' any sleep." Me (puzzled): "Why not?" She: "Are you freakin' kidding me? I'm scared to death!" That never even occurred to me! I guess it makes me a little strange...but
strange is good, right?
I'm the youngest in a big family (5 brothers...youch! And thank goodness...1 sister). I enjoy getting together with my family, hanging out with my friends and, OF COURSE, being with my boyfriend, Mark.

Hmm, baby rabbits. If you don't have access to rabbit feed (which they are going to need) some leafy greens or celery will suffice in the meantime. I think that is for when they hit 3 months, but I imagine it is a better option than starving.
I know as they get bigger they love flower beds as a grazing ground!
I have to figure I must have made some comment about being raised like a pagan wolf, and that is how they came up with that. Anyone who knows me knows I am too lazy to really practice anything that elaborate!
Why thank you. And I am still not sure whether I like it more than the dark or not. I am just trying it out again, I have been dark for so long it is kind of a shock to be so much lighter again. But it is growing on me. :P Oh and Florida is good. Things are going well at the moment. Nothing too exciting though. I will be in Vegas next month. Gotta see my nieces:) I am going skydiving with my brother too. I am stoked!! I hope you had a good Valentines Day. I will talk at cha laters. Meg;)
Haven't been on MS in ages. Mainly check FB now. You have a FB acct? Just droppin by to let you know I'm still alive and I hope you had a great holiday! I have months of blogs to catch up on, so I'm sure there's some of yours in that list!
