About Me (and you too, I hope)
 

So yes, we've had a picture thread, and I believe we may even have had a "what you do for a living" thread, but I have a bad memory. So can we start again? Let's do little bios about ourselves with a recent photo if you have one.

This is my husband and I from this past week-end. (I have a really funny picture of us "pouting" like movie stars, but I'll save that for another day.) Actually, now that I think of it, I have a bunch of pictures here, but you have to be my "friend" to see most of them. Add me, if you're interested.

I am 37 years old, live in North Carolina with my husband, eleven year old step-son, and my mother. My mom is in semi-poor health, so she lives with us. I grew up in New York, and moved to NC about 10 years ago. I have my degree in Psychology/Mental Health (graduated May 2004) and hope to be accepted to graduate school this fall. My goal is to receive my Masters in Clinical Social Work. Ultimately, I want to work with incest/child abuse survivors.

My husband and I are looking to adopt a baby this year, probably from another country. We're looking at all avenues now.

As far as FM goes, my parents were big into them, so they were a part of my life from day one. I discovered Stevie during The Wild Heart era, but wasn't old enough to go to a concert until Rock a Little. I went to TONS of her shows from Rock a Little on, but it wasn't until her most recent tour that I touched her hand during Edge. A 20 year dream fullfilled...finally.

So please, post your own bios- I am really interested to hear about YOU. :wavey:

You two make a gorgeous couple! If you have a Psychology background, you should have known better than to post that picture and ruin self esteem all over!! ;) I'm joking, it was so nice of you to share! Maybe I will sometime, too. I'm sorry to hear about your Mother's illness, and bless you for caring for her. I know you stay busy enough with an 11 year old. Take care! :wavey: :wavey:

I'm Lisa--37 years old. I'm married with a 13 year old son.

My husband is 13 years older than myself. He has 3 sons who are all married with their own families. So this makes me a very young Grandma...lol..

My husband and I several years ago, I had to throw in a picture of me sporting my Mac shirt.

Here are all 5 of my grandbabies....

My husband and his brother own a construction company. They do highway construction, rural water lines, and just about any kind of dirt work. Right now they're off on a new venture. They have been in Mississippi cleaning up debris for the last 4 1/2 months. About 5 years ago we decided to start another business which I run. I bid highway jobs and furnish materials to contractors.

I love being outdoors. I like gardening, fishing and looking for arrowheads. I'm ready for Spring to get here, I'm starting to feel like a caged animal.

I'm Anita. My husband who will be 50 this month (he's 15 years older than me), he & I will also celebrate our 13th Wedding Anniversary next month. We have no kids (:thumbsup:) He is a kind man that puts up with ALOT of my crap. lol. He's most respectful of my quest to globe-trot (well atleast "state-trot") to see Stevie & The Mac.

In addition to my love for Sn/Mac, I am a huge Siouxsie & The Banshees fan. I've seen them almost as many times as Stevie. Also a huge fan of Dan Hicks, whom I've seen so many times that he greets me by name at each show. "JOOOOOOOOOOOOY!":blob1: He's no household name to most I am sure, but for me, it's quite an honor. I revel in meeting celebs, which is an added bonus due to our Limousine Business. Besides that prosperous job, we manage a storage facility.

In my youth I was cast "originator" of the Rocky Horror Picture Show and can be seen in one of the books showcasing multiple casts. I'm a proud Virgo, and that's about it! :wavey:

My pics show Hubby & I at our New Years Eve Party. Solo pic of me is trying to disguise how truly toasty I am. =0p

I've done sound for Dan Hicks. He was a VERY nice guy.

Thank you for the compliment, Kellie. As far as my mother goes, she has emphysema and COPD. She is not totally helpless, but she is unable to work, and her social security isn't enough to enable her to live completely on her own. So, she lives with us. I guess this way, when she does become seriously ill, she'll already be with us and it won't be such a huge transition for all of us.

You look so young in this picture!!! :shocked: You're adorable!

They're beautiful- you are a grandmother and I haven't even had my first child yet- yet we're the same age. SIGH.


Hey- that's really cool. I have always loved the Rocky Horror Picture Show. I always felt like I should have married someone named Brad- I just never found the right one. ;)

You don't look toasted at all- you must be a pro. ;)

Thanks for posting to this. I just felt like adding a "light" topic to the chit chat. Plus, it helps me remember who is who.

See how cool this board is? One that knows of Dan Hicks (and he is SUPER nice. Very reserved)...and another that feels the "Brad/Janet" bond. Heehee.

It is fun getting to put faces w/ names. Stevie/Mac fans=Good People! :nod:

Here's me with my husband last october during our trip to the Adirondack Mountains:

I'm a nurse in a college health center. He drives a front-end loader at a manufacturing company. He's 33, I'm about to turn 31. We met 15 years ago, we've been together for 12&1/2 years, and married for just over 1 year. :p No kids, don't really know if we want any. We have 2 gorgeous kitties & a very handsome dog. :angel:

That is amazing. Where did you get married????

Well, that pic is of Paula and I at our wedding....Red Rocks, Colorado '86....day after we snorted with Stevie.

Ahhhh, yes, the memories. I miss ya, Curty! :wavey:

OK, so really Jannie, I got married at the Valley of Fire State Park in Nevada, about 40 minutes outside of Vegas.

It's beautiful and your dress is so gorgeous, too.

Curtis, you nut. :rolleyes:

Thanks! I got it on the net for like $100, it was quite Stevie-ish without being ridiculous. I think.

And Curtis IS a nut! Here's our real wedding picture:
