I'm a Singer. I'm a Wife. I'm a Mother. I love being a mother, but I find it mentally and physically exhausting, and my mother was a far better mother than I am. She had hoards of patience. I have very little. But my children still manage to bring infinite amounts of joy to my every day, even when they are driving me nuts.

I'm a Margarita drinker (possibly because I'm a mother...) I love them with lots of salt on the rim, and served on the rocks. Toss in a lime and a ginormous olive, and I'm a happy girl.

I know every line to "Sixteen Candles" in order, can still sing all the lyrics on the Purple Rain album, and in my deepest dreams, John Cusack stands with a boombox over his head playing Peter Gabriel to entice me down from my Juliet balcony.

What else about me...? I'm short, small, thin. Hippy, not in a love-child kind of way, but rather, in a "birthed three kids" kind of way. Still manage to be skinny kind of way. Obsessed with the number on the scale. Oh, well. They pay me to sing, and that makes me happy. Obviously, I've been drinking Margaritas as I type this...

I'm an out of place Steel Magnolia. I miss the South and the South misses me..

I love music-it's as necessary to my survival as the air that I breathe. I love to read, but not that romantic crap that has bare-chested, long-haired men on the cover. Rather, give me a great mystery or a true crime novel. I don't want to think. I just want to be entertained in the few quiet moments I have to myself.

I don't dig bugs, and spiders truly wig me out. I'm woman enough to take it-I just don't see the necessity in it when you have a man around. I'm a true Southern Belle, who only halfway believes in Women's Lib. I still believe that a man should open the door for a lady, and that gentlemen should remove their hats when indoors. Chivalry does live...somewhere. I'm not into chocolate, but could eat Creme Brulee till the cows come home. And I won't share it. Order your own damn dessert.
