I'm interested in a lot of things, but what I want to do and what I DO do, are two different things.
I want to travel and see the world, starting with this continent. Travel the US, see the Grand Canyon, Niagra Falls, the Redwoods - Canada, Alaska, Hawaii, Costa Rica, Bahamas. I've been to Mexico! :<) Want to see England, Ireland, Greece, Italy, Africa, China, Spain. Go to space? Take a submarine trip down to the depths of the ocean? Skydiving, parasailing, paragliding, skiing - I haven't even been snorkeling! Unless you count the pool, and even then I kept drinking the water. I like to read, watch movies and bike.
Music
I like a lot of music, but I admit I need to "get out more." Definitely need to find some new stuff, most of my favorites are from the 90's, 70's or 60's. I don't like gospel or christian music, and don't care for most rap, country or R&B. I like some latin music, but am not really up to date on who's who in that genre - heard the soundtrack to Desperado? That's the kind of latin music that does it for me. Not the little girls who dress up like hookers and try to sell their stuff to America.
If it's not gospel, and it's not nailed down I might like it.

Somebody shut me up already...
Television
UGH. If it's on I'm trying to ignore it becuase it's probably Blues Clues or Spongebob. I am really out of touch with today's t.v. society. I haven't even seen a complete episode of American Idol. However, it's amazing I know what it is. I figured it out a couple years into it's running.
I am a bibliophile. I have books on a multitude of topics from quick, paperback thrillers and horror to science, general reference, erotica, how to write, witchcraft, gifted people, gods, the "End of Faith," computers, art stuff, crafts stuff, scrapbooking, dieting, losing weight. Then there are my cookbooks. And don't even get me started on my magazines. Did I really order these subscriptions?

How do I sum it all up? Currently a stay-at-home mom with 2 sons - the oldest is nine and the youngest will be two in February. I have an AS degree in Graphic Design and love to write, but don't find much time lately. I've been published previously but it was all smut. Good smut dammit, but smut nonetheless. I like to fantasize about being a respectable writer one day, but not sure when that will happen. I shoud get my ass in gear
I have decided to go back to school for science education and want to teach high school students. The material is close to the science I want to teach, and I want to interact with older kids. Kids close to adulthood. Teenagers are emotional and have that I'm-going-to-do-something-with-my-life spark. And if they don't have that spark, I want to help them get it. I want to help kids look at the world more ratioinally and join in on the fight against ignorance.
I'm not very political, but I distrust the government and don't consider myself a republican or a democrat. If fact, I rather hate labels.
In my opinion, religion and politics should never mix and I feel opressed by both.
I'm quite well, thanks! I'm not here often any more either, just like you. Facebook took me and my friends away. I visit MySpace probably once or twice a month nowadays.
Years ago when I visited New Symrna Beach, I was in such awe at how beautiful it was down there and I thought I would like to live in Florida but then those hurricanes started scaring the shit out of me! Unfortunately, my annual beach trip for work has been moved from Ponte Vedra to SC due to more people coming along this year. I'm kinda bummed but I am still planning to make a trip to Jacksonville this summer to see my sister who is stationed there. I would love it if we can meet up. I'm glad your sis in law made it to FL. My friends are still trying to get me to move back to Athens. I love going to visit them but I am too happy in the city now:) Glad to hear from you. Hope you and the kiddos are doing well.
Hi Star! Thanks for the Add!American Atheists is honored to have you as a friend on MySpace and we appreciate your support!
In reason, American Atheists
American Atheists is a nationwide movement which defends the civil rights of nonbelievers, works for the separation of church and state, and addresses issues of First Amendment public policy.
Some things are good...others not so good. I have had friends lose jobs this past week and another friend's marriage fall apart. I stay prettty busy with work (the good) but also super stressed lately. The problem with that is that I am finding it challenging to vent (or complain) without appearing unappreciative of still having a job. I, personally think it human nature to complain and for me it's therapeutic but the times have me holding back a little. So like you, I try to keep my mouth shut. I am glad that the kids are doing great. Hang in there...it may not seem like it now but it will get better.
