LOL! Naemanson, no, you didn't frighten me off--I'm just enjoying the other posts. I do make a good audience, because I love to watch.

I didn't intend for this thread to be about me, and I am once-burned/twice-shy about advertising myself on the Internet. I will tell you that I am most assuredly female (hang on a sec.....yep, I just checked, and I still am)--and I love to flirt, but do I need to say that making real commitments is not my strength? Obviously I haven't commited to Mudcat, yet, either. (But thanks to everyone for your warm words--I'm not at all surprised to be asked to join up--you all are wonderful.)

I didn't mean to whine last night about my voice--one of my New Year's Gifts to myself is to buy some voice lessons. I'm old enough to know that attitude is 99% of the answer, and I hope that with some instruction, I'll buy some confidence. Then, perhaps, I'll feel equal to calling myself a Mudcattywoman--but it's a title I can't use lightly. Again I say you all are out of my league.

Now some facts for inquiring minds: I'm 5'6", 136 lbs, long bushy red hair, very adult but act very childlike very often, am not at all agist, my left breast is bigger (thanks so much for asking), unfortunately neither are big enough to drape over my guitar--my sister that got all the singing talent also got my share of those--LOL--and drapes them well--LOL--so I guess I'm a squisher! My favorite book is any one that I am reading at the time--I love books--for Christmas I bought myself "The Oxford Book of Humorous Prose" by Frank Muir and "Daughter of Fortune" by Isabel Allende (haven't started it yet). My favorite movie is "White Christmas", or it was last week--it changes constantly, too. My favorite song is too hard to pinpoint--I love so many--from the hilarious/bawdy to the skin-crawling/stomach-lifters. I find that it's not just the song that does it for me, but the combination of the song and the voice that usually blows me away. My favorite thing to do in all the world (even over music) is to laugh. Laughing is everything, to me, and so little time is truly devoted to it these days. It's the other reason I've enjoyed lurking at Mudcat. Otherwise, my only other memorable qualities are: 1. I don't have very good judgment at times (and so find it's often better for me to remain silent and be thought a fool than to post and remove all doubt (sorry, Oscar)) and, 2. as a result of my poor judgment and ready sense of humor, I tend to be a tad outrageous. LOL!

And now, I've probably said too much.

Oh, and DougR, I was going to scan my pussy for you--LOL--she's not hardly hairy at all--but decided that might not be the best judgment. (And, the SPCA might get me for it.) LOL! If you like, I'll scan my bushy hair?

LOL!
