sometimes I lose, sometimes I win.

I am a woman who enjoys herself very much; sometimes I lose, sometimes I win. |

ME: THE NUTSHELL VERSIONWhen people ask me to tell them "more about myself," I generally reply that I'm a vegetarian, an Episcopalian, a French linguist, an Army Reservist, a Virgo, and a computer nut. Sometimes they ask me what I do for a living. I like to say I laugh for a living -- although I also consider myself an amateur philosopher.... RANDOM FACTS ABOUT MEI live in Tacoma, Washington, USA, although I love traveling, especially to France, which I love as a second home. Some more things I love: computers, building web sites, puppies, rock 'n roll, sushi, dancing, working out, walking and running the trails at Point Defiance, my morning shower.... I adore being out-of-doors, but am not much into camping. I'm not much of a sports fan, but I've been known to get fairly excited over the Super Bowl, as long as I'm betting on it. I have more than a passing interest in astrology, numerology, the Tarot, and the I Ching. I tend to fall easily for Cancerian men, but will turn tail and run next time I meet one with his Venus in Gemini! I have tuned up my own car, but have never baked a cake from scratch. I detest meetings, but I love parties. I live in possibly the noisiest spot on this planet. I bake my own bread, and shave my legs every day. I do not own a TV or VCR (Net junkie that I am). I prefer target practice to Tupperware parties. I would not buy a car with an automatic transmission. I seriously intend to vote for Dave Barry for President. I once spent three days at a nudist camp. Pet peeves: traffic jams, silly mass email forwards, cuss words that include the word "God" or "Jesus," people who will hold up 4-5 cars in a parking lot waiting for some lady to load up her minivan, when there's an empty space two stalls down (hey, will the extra 15 feet really kill ya??); pop-up windows; people who change lanes without signaling; having to follow up an email with a phone call. LIARS. Some things I'd like to do before I die: visit France at least once a year; meet my soulmate; see Dennis Miller live; back up my laptop. Some things I'd never do again: delete my Windows folder without making sure I had a current backup and good boot floppy on hand; remove my distributor without first marking it; cancel my collision insurance because I finished paying for the car; get married just because "everybody" thought I should; fall in love with a married man, no matter how charming he might be; sing karaoke after consuming ANY number of margaritas; go to the Post Office on a Monday; take my car to Econo Lube & Tune. MY OBSOLESCENCE POLICYIn order for Cheryl to continue to deliver the best possible version of herself to the universe and everyone in it, it is sometimes necessary to discontinue habits, thought patterns, and emotional attachments when they have reached the end of their life cycle. We apologize for any inconvenience; however, you are welcome to try out the upgraded version of Cheryl at any time. Major revisions include a patch for a boundary overrun vulnerability which could lead to general instability or even a complete crash, and enhanced B.S. filtering capabilities, resulting in significantly improved resource allocation. (NOTE: Cheryl's Maker assumes no liability for bugs introduced through misuse or conflict with third-party applications, but will continue to provide support on an ongoing basis, now and for all eternity.)
