General

The Boyfriend. Shown here on our first backpacking trip together, over Memorial Day weekend in 2006.

But always know I love him dearly, no matter how crazy he can make me!

I've definately met my match with this one!

Parker: The cutest puppy that was ever possessed by the devil!

Parker will be 3 in May of '08 and I'm hoping he'll start to calm down! 2 1/2 years old and he STILL doesn't know the word "down!" His saving grace is that he's SO CUTE! How could I twist off his head when he's so adorable?!

Parker loves to hike and go offroading, and that's why I picked an Aussie-- I needed a dog with the stamina to keep up with me! Unfortunately, he's got more stamina than I do and now I can't keep up with HIM!

Tyler: Tyler is the BF's dog. We were pretty sure he was just your average mutt from the pound, but an awful lot of people have stopped to comment on our beautiful Rhodesian Ridgeback! Hmmmmm. So the BF got a book on Ridgebacks and pretty much the only thing Tyler's missing is the trademark ridge down his back! But then again...that could be why he got a ride to the pound when he was just a pup!

Tyler's the best dog, I hope Parker grows up to be like him someday! He's loyal and protective and LOVES kids, and he can SIT STILL when there's nothing to do but still hike for miles when he wants!

DRIPPY!: My beloved 1991 Jeep Cherokee "XJ!"

I bought Drippy in 2003 from Hungarian lesbians. I love this car. The first thing his previous owner told me about him was that he's a "he." Then I found out his name is "Drippy" because he had a nasty oil leek when SHE bought him-- she was quick to assure me that she'd long had that fixed! I feel more like I adopted a pet than bought a car!

I drove Drippy home with 205K miles on him, and now he's almost to 300K. I used to drive a lot more before I got shacked up with the BF. Otherwise we'd be on our way to 400K by now!

Drippy loves going offroading and we have some great memories together. It's going to break my heart if I ever have to give him up.

The "XJ" is the manufacturer's model code for the Jeep Cherokee...all Jeep models have a monogram and you can usually spot us hardcore Jeep-lovers because we tend to refer to our cars by that code. If you see Drippy around town you'll recognize the plates, and now you won't have to wonder what "XJCHICK" means!

The TRAIL: Back in the 1900's I got bit by the Backpacking bug BAD! I love the trail. I don't get to sleep on the ground in the cold nearly as often as I'd like to, but it's one of my favorite things!

I have plans to hike the entire PCT (pacific crest trail) from start (at the California/Mexico border) to finish (just inside the Canadian border) someday. It's a long hike, and it'll take me close to 6 months. You better believe there's a lot of planning that goes into such an endeavor when you're self employed and have no vacation time or option for a leave of absense!

Until I can get together the money and set aside the time for the BIG ONE, I make sure to get out a few times a year. I keep a trial journal online at Trailjournals.com if you want to check out some of my adventures!

AMBER!: Amz and I have been friends for TWENTY YEARS!!! YIKES! does that ever make me feel OLD!

Amber's been my trusy backpacking partner for the last 9 years, as well as one of my BESTEVER friends since we were seniors in high school! (check out this picture of us from our Colorguard days-- that's right, we were both flag-girls, STOP LAUGHING!)

Musican eclectic array. I'm particularly fond of bluegrass and American folk music, and other stuff that makes most people cover their ears and scream in pain.
MoviesRarely get out to see any new ones. I'm fond of B movies and cult classics. Anything with Bruce Campbell HAS to be good, right?
Televisionit's a dull gray box in the living room that collects dust. It takes up a lot of space for something that is so rarely used.
BooksLove books. But they take too long to read.

HeroesThe world could use more of them.

About me:
linklink

October 22 marks the 16th anniversary of receiving my California Manicurist license and beginning my career as a professional nail artist!

I love doing nails! And I love networking with, and mentoring others in the industry!

I firmly believe there is room for all of us in this industry and I'm always happy to share my wisdom and knowledge with other nail stylists!

In addition to Myspace, you can find me hanging out in the Beautytech forums for nail technicians, and I've been an active member of the nailtech mailing list at Beautytech.com since getting my first computer in 1999!

When ever you get a chance, stop by Nails Magazine Online to check out my professional blog: BLOGS.NAILSMAG.COM/MAGGIE and make sure to leave some love in the comment field-- or leave some hate. The blog is supposed to ruffle some feathers and stir up some controversy! So don't be afraid to tell it like you see it!

I also maintain a professional website where you can find more information about my services and prices, and lots of photos of my work. Click here for my webpage!

I am a volunteer Expert at ALLEXPERTS.COM It's a nifty website where you can ask all kinds of questions and get answers from people who actually know. It wasn't easy to get approved! I had to fill out a lengthy and involved application form and wait several months to see if I'd be approved! There are several other experts in the field of nails too, so you can get more than one opinion!

Watch the video! It's very important to know what can go wrong in a salon so that you can make intelligent choices about which salon you want to go to!

This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? using original artwork by Marah Johnson. Go get one!

Who I'd like to meet:
Looking forward to hearing from all my loyal fans! And hoping to meet some new nail techs and nail groupies!
