So while the last post talked about how I got to Idaho, it said very little about me so here goes...
I am a 29 year old school teacher. I am single but have several furbabies, including a pug/chihuahua mix named Pippin (Peregrin Took when I'm upset with him), an Aussie/Border Collie/Great Pyrnees mix named Keladry (Keladry of Mindelan on one of her bad days), a cat named Kuddley (No I didn't name him :P) and a Chilean Rose Hair Tarantula named Isabella Rose. (The quietest pet in the house and the cheapest to feed, I love tarantulas)
I live in a trailer park in Ammon, ID, a suburb of Idaho Falls proper. It's one of the few non-LDS neighborhoods in town as it's a primarily Hispanic neighborhood. I like living in a hispanic neighboorhood -- the Mexican neighbors are the ones that keep to themselves and don't throw parties or have VERY loud arguments.
Music...
I love Contemporary Christian (Esp Chris Tomlin, Third Day, Michael W. Smith, Steven Curtis Chapman, Natalie Grant, Newsboys and D.C. Talk. OH and Twila Paris), old Jesus movement music (Keith Green, 2nd Chapter of Acts and Larry Norman), Jazz/Big Band (I play clarinet so BENNY GOODMAN! Also Glenn Miller) and a lot of other stuff... Artists I like but not mentioned above include: Billy Joel, Rascal Flatts, Moonwulf (Duke Moonwulf mka Micheal Longcor), Josh Groban, Sarah Brightman, Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenowith. My tastes are wildly eccentric. I also listen to a ton of Broadway and classical, especially Wicked, Godspell, Spamalot, Mama Mia and any Bach and Handel.
Books:
I like Sci-fi/Fantasy -- my brother Aaron got me started on Hitchhiker's Guide, and I also like Tamora Pierce's Tortall series and Mercedes Lackey's 100 Kingdoms series. I also like historic fiction like Eugenia Price and Jean Plaidy. Also any Karen Kingsbury that contains the Baxter Family (because they take place in Bloomington, IN) and authors like Lori Wick and Francine Rivers. Oh yeah, like Harry Potter too.
Also into mysteries -- I love the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evonovich especially.
As far as TV goes, I get it on DVD that's it.
Quick list: CSI, CSI: Miami, Law & Order SVU, Law & Order, Firefly, Stargate SG-1, Battlestar Galactica, Muppet Show, A-Team (I'm embarrassed on that one), Monk and Psych.
Movies:
The Lion in Winter, Serenity, Ever After, Ella Enchanted, Kingdom of Heaven, Star Wars, Batman Begins, Narnia, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Princess Bride, Princess Diaries and too many others to name...
Maybe this is a bit of a glance into my ecclectic life.
