About Me.

If you are curious to know more about me: This is a good place to start. :O)
You will probably learn much more in regards to me than you ever wanted to know....
LOL
but: if you are curious..... here is a bit of trivia-type information regarding me.
I hope if you know me already that you will learn something different about me.
That is the goal, anyway.
This page will be updated as new ideas (and photos) come my way.

This would be me.

21 things you may not know about me.
  1. I have been on an airplane that was struck by lightning. We had to make a crash landing. That was NOT fun.
  2. I "Captained" a House-Boat at the age of 15. It was great ~ since I was too young at the time for even a (driving) learners permit.
  3. I learned how to drive in a Race-Car.
  4. Of the United States ~ I have been to Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, California, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico and New York.
  5. I have only been out of the USA two times. I went to Mexico at the age of two and I have just returned from an exceedingly short trip to England.
  6. I legally changed the spelling of my middle name to "AnnE" (It was spelled "Ann" when I was born) after having been inspired by "Anne of Green Gables" as a kid. My mother didn't want me to change the spelling of my name~ but when I turned 18 ~ I changed it, anyway. LOL It took her the better part of 10 years to get used to it.
  7. I thought about changing my first name to "Jackie" ~ but I decided against it.
  8. I am tempted to get a tattoo of a Butterfly on my ankle.
  9. If I did it would be Blue, Purple and Black.
  10. I worked as Mary Poppins at Disneyland.
  11. I used to sing in High School.
  12. I have been in several community theater plays and musicals.
  13. I would love to play the role of "Julie" in Showboat.
  14. And "Fiona" in Brigadoon.
  15. Favorite role to play would be the role of "The Bakers' Wife" in Into The Woods. That role is the closest role I have ever identified with in life.
  16. I think of myself as a romanticist ~ a trait that I find somewhat annoying.
  17. I haven't taken the time to pursue many of my hobbies in the last several months.
  18. My biggest dream is to go to England for an exceedingly long stay. (I have now been to England ~ for an exceedingly short stay...)
  19. I have often thought of myself as an Ex-Pat who has never left her Country of origin. **Now that I have been to England ~ I know that I will return ~ and one day I will be a British National. I know now why I have always felt like England is "Home." Quite simply ~ it is my home... I look forward to returning to my love.
  20. I am a pretty odd mix of things in my personality. I want to travel ~ but home is very important to me.  I am a very emotional person ~ but I tend to be rational in my thought processes. I don't think that I am creative ~ but I do many artistic things. I am not a shy person ~ but I do require my "Quiet-Time" ~ people sometimes think that I am a "Loner" but I think that the more correct term is that I am highly introverted.
  21. I recently moved to England. :O)

 Into the Woods without delay,
but careful not to lose the way....
