Just a small wish list My Wish List Thanks Cliff1976!



A little about me: I'm 25 years old...I live in St. Louis, Mo. and have all of my life. I was recently accepted to a school in Western Illinois...and I will be attending there in the Spring...with a major in Biology.
I currently work with animals and I really enjoy my job! I've never been so satisfied with a job...and I count myself lucky!
My hobbies include:reading(obviously),writing(short stories, poetry,etc.),scrapbooking(I'm slower at this than I am at reading!haha!)and I've just started volunteering a bit with local animal shelters. :)


I have listed the bookrings/rays I'm a participant in so that I can can keep track of them...which is the same reason that I listed the books that I've promised to other bookcrossers...I can be a bit scatterbrained at times...;)


My profile picture constantly changes!!! First it was of my youngest kitten, Penny. Then it was of me and a dog I rescued(Charlie)at my workplace. Now, it's of my first(and oldest)cat...Spooky Sugar Kitten...:)




A few favorite quotes:

Outside of a dog, a book is man's [a person's] best friend. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read anyway.~Groucho Marx


If everyone is thinking alike, then somebody isn't thinking.~ George S. Patton

"I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now? Reality leaves a lot to the imagination." John Lennon
