My name is Caryn (pronounced like "Karen"). I'm 29, happily married to my high school sweetheart, and I live in Austin, TX. I don't have any kids, but I have 14 nieces & nephews.

I work in computer security and tend to be very left-brained. I make lists and keep several journals. I just graduated college with a Bachelor's in Information Security. I'm tossing around the idea of Graduate school, but we'll see.

I'm really into country right now... older stuff as well as contemporary country. However, I love all kinds of music. My playlist is over 800 songs, everything from Janis Joplin to Linkin Park to Norah Jones to Willie Nelson. Pop, rock, R&B, indie... it's all good. :)

I'm really into Philippa Gregory right now. Love the Tudors. I also like James Patterson, Judith McNaught, Nicholas Sparks... I'm trying to get through some classics and "Top 100" books, as well (ie. Age of Innocence, Love in the Time of Cholera, etc).

I finally made it through the entire AFI Top 100 list, just in time for them to come out with a new list. I love Jimmy Stewart and Gene Kelly. I find myself enjoying movies from the late '30s/early '40s. As far as current movies, I am a sucker for a good "chick flick."
