About Me

I am unavailable on Sundays during the football season (August - February). Go Steelers!

I love shopping. I love stationery (but have such a surplus I don't need any right now) and writing letters. I love hot summer weather with plenty of sunshine. I love sending and receiving mail. I'm fond of gel pens and ballpoint pens in a variety of colors, especially green, orange, and pink. I love mechanical pencils (.5mm) and dislike wooden pencils you sharpen. I like snowflakes.

I am on an ongoing quest to find the perfect purse.

I love sewing. My fabric stash consists primarily of 100% cottons in solid colors, floral prints, polka dots, stars, fun random patterns, and other cute designs. I like making zipper pouches, snap pouches, morsbags and aprons. I also have a nice stash of buttons, threads, and other sewing accessories. I need to learn how to make button holes.

I'm a big fan of Orbit WHITE Bubblemint gum. I do not like the other flavors or varieties of Orbit gum. I like vanilla Softlips lip protectant. I love cashews and pistachio nuts. Since April 2008 I've lost 28 pounds. I limit the amount of candy and "junk food" I consume.

I do not like coffee, dark chocolate, melon or raspberry flavors. I love Coca-Cola and am collecting MyCoke Rewards points.

Colors I enjoy include white, black, pink, brown, green (I've been into bright and almost electric greens lately), blue, orange, gray, and cream. Please no purple.

I love videogames. I have a PS2, PS3, Gameboy, and a Wii. I also like computer games. Styles of game play I like include RPG, fighting, shooter. I'm a big fan of Super Mario/Paper Mario, Ratchet and Clank, The Sims, Mortal Kombat I-III, Tetris, Sim City 4, and Zuma.

I am allergic to shea butter, melons, and nickel. I dislike spicy and musk scents. If sending me handmade jewelry, sterling silver is the way to go.

Favorite Music

Rock, classic rock, pop, rap, hip-hop, r&b, reggae, smooth jazz, dance, electronica and anything with steel drums. I'm also fond of 70's and 80's music. I listen to my Sirius sattelite radio in the car. Some favorite artists and groups include Harry Connick Jr, LL Cool J, Seal, Sting, Sade, 50 Cent, Young Buck, Outkast, Prince, Basement Jaxx, Justin Timerblake, and Jimi Hendrix.

I do enjoy holiday music and Christmas carols. I'm particularly fond of "Carol of the Bells".

Favorite Movies

Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein are the funniest movies ever.

Favorite Television

Sex and the City, CSI, CSI: Miami, NFL Football, ANTM, The Closer, House, nip/tuck, Project Runway, and old school Law & Order with Lenny Brisco and Mike Logan, The Deadliest Catch.

Favorite Crafts

Sewing, cooking, and fabric painting. I occasionally branch out into other things that involve paper and glue such as CD cover art and making envelopes.

I am not interested in receiving ATC's or batik fabrics. Please no purple.

Comment: Hi Courtney! Got your CD this morning, so well presented! I totally loved Tom Petty's song and I had to laugh at your comment on Ringo's voice and non-apostolic status (I agree!) LOL. Oh and I adore that Spinal Tap's tune :) thanks.

Comment: Thanks for the great CD's...very cool! Disco hasn't been my favourite genre, to be honest, but the mic you put together was neat! Thanks for the bonus "Covers" disc as well..some definite old favourites, and a few I'd not heard before "Fool on the hill", Saturday Night's Allright" by Nickelback and Kid Rock. Thanks!

Comment: I don't like to dish out hearts lightly ... it cheapens the brand ... BUT: you had some really good songs on this disc. My usual CD-swap experience is that ... my mix rocks (IMHO), and the ones I get are CRAP. I was pleasantly surprised. Thanks!
Response: Thank you so much. I am really pleased to know you enjoyed the mix. Thanks as well for my 100th heart.
