Aloha Tina! Good idea for a thread, btw. Wish I had thought of it. Of course, now I have to try and keep track of everyone and their names, which just confuses me even more! Thanks a lot!

Anyhoo, I'm JC, turning 25 on July 17th (Kari's anniversary). I'm not married (it's not legal yet *sigh) but I am in a loving, committed relationship. I'm owned by 48 paws; 3 dogs (Arthur, my rotti pup; Chloe, my corgi/chow/retriever X; and Charlie, my pembroke), 7 cats (Katie, Dragon and Joey are the adults, and Katie had 4 kittens a little over a month ago), and 2 ferrets (Gizmo and Slinky). I plan on expanding my zoo as soon as we have a bigger place.

As for hobbies... I had hobbies once! LoL Nah, despite our menagerie we make it a point to still have "us time" when we can. I love music and theatre, and have been involved in both since I was about 5. I sing every chance I get and play a handful of instruments. I have half a dozen bookshelves full of books, and one of my projects is to finish my childrens' novel that I've been working on. I love the outdoors, which makes it hard for me to live in Tucson. I love food and fine dining, and love to cook. In fact, we're probably going to be moving to Phoenix so I can go to culinary school. I'm a Renaissance Faire geek, and go every year in garb. I have a weapons wall covered in swords, bows, axes and morningstars. (scared yet? hehe)

Ok... I can keep going, but I won't. You're probably going "When the heck is this chick gonna shut up???"
