About Me

Bogie is my 18 month english bulldog who came into my life in March, 2009 and who has saved me from myself, going postal and sticking my head in the oven (in that order) on more then one occassion. For this I am eternally greatful to be his mum.

My Birthday is January 1, 1975 & I am very much a Capricorn with Sagitarius rising.

Current stats: 5'2.5, size 11, 156.4 pounds

The one person I would have dinner with if I could: (no longer living) my grandpa (living) Johnny Depp (sigh...)

My career choice if I was not in Entertainment A/R: Entertainment Law

My favorite drink: Mojito

My favorite book: Angela's Ashes

Last Book That I Read: Bright Lights, Big Ass: A Self-Indulgent, Surly, Ex-Sorority Girl's Guide to Why it Often Sucks in the City, or Who are These Idiots and Why Do They All Live Next Door to Me? (made me laugh, cry and pee my pants all at the same time...Note to self: NOT ALLOWED to read Jen Lancaster books in public places, people think your a looney!)

My Favorite TV Show: Ab Fab (AKA Absoultely Fabulous) Wecome to my chain smoking, pill popping, drunken reality sweetie darling! http://www.youtube.c...feature=related

My favorite movie: Amelie

My Anthem: "I Will Survive" by Gloria Gaynor

My guilty pleasure: old Sally Fields (anything and everything she has ever done no matter how corny)

My sense of humor can be compaired to: Ann Taintor Vintage products (IE: Dry, Witty Sarcasim)

My pet peave: The saying "my bad" & people who turn without using the turn signal & those who drive with their signal on with no plans on turning any time soon.

Favorite food: Indian Cuisine for breakfast, lunch & dinner

Goal size: 6 (I think it would be cool to say I wear a size 6 dress, size 6 shoe and size 6 ring...okay I just realized that means something evil...maybe I should rethink this).

Goal weight: a buck twenty five baby!

I was born, raised and currently live in the greater Los Angeles area and if I had a free pass to live anywhere else it would have to be Ireland. I am a Trojan, USC Alumini with a Bachlors in Cinema-Television and a Business Minor. I am a sucker for those "as seen on TV products" they sell at Bed Bath and Beyond. When I get to goal size I plan on buying a whole new wardrobe from My Baby Jo since their shop is on the corner of the street where I live. I can't wait to take picures in 1950's bathing suits! Pin up vintage here I come!

    It's not so much pain as a constant pressure feeling in my chest, though I have had a lot of port pain but I have a flipped port. The only really noticeable differences are: my stomach has started growling for the first time in a year and a half. It's kind of embarrassing actually hehe, and the pressure feeling in my chest makes me not want to eat anything.

    Not sure yet what's going to be done. I did get it at the OCC a year and a half ago, it's a 4cc band. I'll talk to my local fill doc who also places bands on Thursday and see where to go from here. It's not a typical slip, it slipped up, and it's sitting right at the gastroesophageal junction and there's apparently a lot of scar tissue, so it may not be able to be moved ...
