If you want to know more about me.. then you DEFINITELY need a life... But, since you are here I might as well tell you SOMETHING....

I happen to be out of college (well mostly) and have a nice job to help pay the bills (some of us need real jobs instead of being able to play Computer/console games 24/7 like some of you kiddos living at home with mommy and daddy.. lucky stiffs =\).

Yes, I am female, and NO I won't send you a picture, and NO I won't date you and NO, I'm not into that cybersex stuff... soooo.... get a life and get a girlfriend (perferrably a non-plastic one ;) And, STOP STALKING ME!

I started playing games at a young age, we had a Commodore64 [we even had the cassete tape drive.. I think I am starting to feel old now =\] and an Atari (Pac-Man anyone?). Soon we went from the 64 to the 128 (and boy weren't we sporting to have the 128 MODEL!). My parents bought my brother an 8-bit Nintedo when they first came out. But eventually, they finally broke in and bought me my own for Christmas! YAY! I knew the constant yelling an screaming and fighting with my brother would drive my parents over the edge and get me ONE! I can still remember sitting in my room, listening to New Kids on the Block playing SuperMario Bros (I believe the second one... or was it the third? It was the one where the last Big Boss was a huge frog person that you had to feed vegetables...) and beating the game.. oh, those were the days.. I had good gaming taste.. just not good musical taste =\ err yeah.. I have some old posters for sale too, if anyone is interested ;)

I constantly kept growing up (funny how life does that to a person) and ended up being a Math and Computer Science ENGINEERING student (yes engineering... If I had to brave THERMOHELL, then you ppl will refer to me as an engineer not a PROGRAMMER!!! GACK!!! Must not kill the innocent.. must.. not.. kill....) err Where was I? Oh yes.. College.. College was fun, but got tiring.. I had toyed with the idea of continuing on for a Doctorate, but by that time, I was really tired of school, some classmates, professors, scheduling and the sort. SO, I had the bright idea of getting a job where I can deal with managers, co-workers and WOW! SCHEDULING! I guess you are doomed if you do, and doomed if you don't :)

I don't want to give people the impression that I am unhappy or bitter.. Quite the opposite. I am quite happy in my life right now. I just find it funny that no matter how many times you jump the fence, the grass usually isn't any greener, just a different texture !!
