About Me

I like crafting all sorts of things, I'm a pack-rat, Dumpster Diving is cool, I like the color purple the best, then next is pink. I'm a Leo and I have been attending Burning Man for seven years. I love blinky lights.

Favorite Music

I like alternative, new wave, 80's dance and disco. Some of my favs are: Ministry, Depeche Mode, Ramones

Favorite Books

Not big on reading, but I love beading magazines and anything by Issac Asimov

Favorite Movies

Independence Day, Brain Donors, horror & sci-fi

Favorite Television

Heroes! and Judge Judy

Favorite Crafts

Beading, beginner sewing, mosaics, and anything involving glue, paint or anything messy!

Stuff I Love

I love furry, blinky, shiny! I love using furry fabrics in my crafts. Eyelash type yarn and trim is great. Neon colors are the best. I like to decoupage and paint stuff. I am a 'package' shopper, meaning if the packaging of an item is something I can use to make into something else (box, tins, cases,etc...)then I am more likely to buy it. (edit 3-9-08 Altoid tins ROCK!)

I like using my beading loom, and make jewelry. I string necklaces, make bracelets, and earrings.

I like to decorate/embellish anything I can (although my husband has said the TV is off limits! LOL!)

I love the clearance section, and anything marked down to $1 is likely to find its way into my cart. Free stuff is cool too! I LOVE Schwag!

Personal

I'm 44, married 20 years with 2 children. My son is 19 and out on his own. My daughter, Becca, is 17 and mentally handicapped. She has a disorder called Angelman's Syndrome, and she is non-verbal. She loves to dance with me and help craft.

We live in Bullhead City, AZ., and attend counter-culture events.

More Stuff About Me

03-03-08 Now that I've done some swaps, I can see the need for more information about my likes and dislikes.

Anyways, I love the show Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel. My favorite character is Spike. Oh, and Spiderman is my favorite comic book character.

I love the scents of rose and lavender.

Fabrics that are furry or bright or obnoxious are the best. (I'm not into 'country crafts')

I think the two best words to describe me are LOUD and SPLASHY! EVERYONE knows when I walk into a room. ; ) And that's not because I'm a super model, it's because the older and fatter I get, the more I feel free to be who I want to!

In my next life, I'm going to be a drag queen, and I will know the secret of putting on false eyelashes.

I love to drink, gamble and smoke. But alas, my age and physical limitations have put a damper on this party animal. But that won't stop me from trying!

My hair has been permanently died every color, including blue.

I have one small tattoo of a witch on my shoulder, and pierced ears, eyebrow and nose. (not to mention my #^%@&! - and that was a strawberry margarita night!) However, for some reason, I very rarely wear earrings - go figure!

I guess that's all for now. Hope it helps for any poor soul that is my partner. ; )

My Daughter Becca

03-06-08 I thought I'd write more about my daughter, Becca, since she's wondering why mommy is getting presents in the mail, and she isn't!

Becca loves baby dolls, real baby stuff (like bottles, bibs, rattles), barbie, rugrats, walmart and toys R us. If someone has an old toys r us/babies r us catalog or ads from the newspaper, she would love that! (We don't get them where we live, and we don't have a toys r us).

Becca also LOVES gift cards - not ones with money on it - but every time she sees one of those racks at the store with all those cards, she grabs some to take home! LOL! Any having to do with babies or birthdays on them.

(BTW: I actually met someone at one of my Burning Man regional events that had made a DRESS out of those cards! Unfortunatels, she was unable to sit down while wearing it! HAHAHA)
