My name is Jennifer. It can be Jenn, Gwen, Dave, Gin...but never Jenny. I am Wiccan, pretty intelligent, and have been told I'm pretty fun to be around. You'll never have to worry about honesty with me, I've learned that the only way to go is tell it like it is, even if that means what you have to say won't be so well-received. I like NKOTB. I smoke (though I would like to quit sometime before my 31st b-day).

*UPDATE* I have not had a single cigarette in '09. It's been nearly a week, and I feel that I can ALMOST breathe easier (teehee) I think I've done it, folks! :D

I can be moody and quiet, loud and obnoxious, or even sweet and (seemingly)innocent. There's really not a whole lot I wouldn't try at least once, I know a lot of folks say that, but I really MEAN it! ;) I enjoy bowling, board games, video games, card games, football, pool, darts, camping, hiking...and lots of other things!

*update* I have a new love! Recently, I've realized how much I miss movies...I've been avoiding the telly for a while now, I guess there just isn't much in the way of things fascinating for me to make me want to turn it on. But I miss movies. I miss going to the newest release in a series of movies that my friends and I don't want to miss, I miss the days when I'd go to the theater with a group of girlfriends and act totally obnoxious through the previews, just to get sucked in completely by the opening scene. I've found, due to a great tip from a new friend, a way to rekindle some of that feeling, and get my movie fix right here on my laptop. Thanks. I needed that! Off to watch another new flick, before work! ;) *end of update*

I'm a nine-to-five girl with a job on the weekends as a home health aide. I work for a Non-Profit agency, which I like because it makes me feel that I can help people, even on a limited basis, more so than I could in the Corporate world. I have a car, a place of my own, and a cat. I enjoy spending time with my friends and their kids (since I don't have any of my own). I don't have plans to go to school or travel extensively, although if I suddenly come into loads of cash, either is possible! I am really enjoying this freedom of having my own place, despite the downfall of being solely responsible for the house, however; unfortunately sooner or later I will have to have a roommate. Hopefully that goes well...I am hardly ever home, so I anticipate that will be okay, but you never know...

Most of the things I enjoy, I enjoy because I like to do them, not necessarily because I'm GOOD at them. I like to write, and have been told the things I write are pretty entertaining. You can decide if I'm good at other things...I will leave that open for your opinion. I have since been enlightened that I am a pretty good story teller, depending on the subject...I am really good at putting actions in to words...in a sense, and I am also a decent listener (if what you have to say interests me, I won't lie...) It has recently been brought to my attention that I'm really good at taking an absolutely terrible situation and accentuating positives. If I like ya well enough and you ask me, I might care to explain... ;)

I have incredible eyes...I think, a pretty good smile, lots of freckles, and pretty nice legs. I would guess that those are physically what is noticed first. I also am pretty open about myself, you can ask almost anything and I will answer...you just might not like the answer! ;)

I read pretty much everything, watch any kind of movies, love all kinds of music, and will try almost any new food. As far as favorites, I like a book that makes you think a little, or at least draws you in. In the interest of helping you out (and beefing this up a bit) I'll list a few of my favorite authors:

Laurell K. Hamilton
Rebecca Brandewyne
Anne Rice
Clive Barker
Iris Johansen
Chuck Palahniuk

A movie has to capture my heart with its story to be on my favorites list, but that doesn't mean just sappy chick-flicks are on that list. Again, to beef this up:

Ever After: A Cinderella Story
X-Men
The Goonies
Indiana Jones (all 4)
Star Wars (all 6)
The Lord of the Rings Trilogy

If the music has a good beat or good lyrics, you can bet I'll like it, but my favorite group is (always has been, always will be) New Kids on the Block, and I am SO not ashamed of that.
I also like: (in NO particular order...and I'm sure there's stuff I'm forgetting)

The Eagles, Rhianna, Rascal Flatts, Pink, Melissa Etheridge, No Doubt/Gwen Stefani, Dixie Chicks, Ne-Yo, SHEDaisy, Savage Garden, Dolly Parton, Harry Connick, Jr., Cher, Madonna (mostly the earlier stuff)

I think my favorite food is Italian, pasta especially, but I really like Mexican as well...and I like to cook when I can, so whatever I can dream up, really! :)

I would be hard pressed to live without my cell, a good book, internet access at least weekly, bottled or filtered water, writing utensils (pen/pencil and paper), and chapstick. :)

*In reading this for the millionth time (okay, it's only been like seventeen, but I have a flair for the dramatic sometimes...) I realized that I didn't necessarily need writing utensils or weekly internet access...unless they were related (ie: laptop or desktop instead along with the internet access, or just the pen and paper) While I do appreciate the way a pen feels on paper some days, if pressed, I suppose I could survive with a keyboard instead...

The things I think about most often are either very near and dear and personal, or very trivial...my mind tends to wander lots, so there really isn't something that's there constantly!

*In ammendment I spend a lot of time lately thinking about what exactly I hope to accomplish here. I thought I had it all under control, but it seems to me that my idea of what I wanted doesn't fit in with what I really wanted. Also how confusing my mind is and the way it works, even to me. Lord and Lady help anyone else who's trying to figure me out, it's practically impossible! ;)

Every other Friday I bowl on a league on a team that I've been on for over ten years. Bowling with the same people for thirty-plus weeks over the fall and winter months is an experience, to say the least! Other Fridays, well, those are mine to spend more time with people I meet here, hopefully! :)

I'm Wiccan...not that that's private, but a girl has to retain her mystery, right? Ask and I will answer almost anything, but if I tell you everything up front, where's the fun in that? I also cannot abide any creature that doesn't either have a face, feet, or both. Make your own deductions as to what kind of pet I'd never have from those criteria. :)

You're still awake after reading everything about me. I can be very chatty...and am when trying to catch someone's attention...have I done that?
