WaterOtter's Profile

Hello from Sunny South Texas!

I live in a small town on the Coast of South Texas.  I was born and raised here, but did spend about 12 years in Atlanta before returning home.  It's a small community but a growing tourist/winter Texan/wealthy-enough-to-have-a-vacation-home town.  Lovely Blue Water beach about 3 blocks from me, charming downtown shopping area and a Bird/Fishing/Boating lover's paradise.  Can you tell I love where I live, lol? 

I'm married to a wonderful husband and we have one furry daughter name Nemo who likes to go for rides in the car to the beach and chase the seagulls.  (Ok, for those of you who didn't get the furry part, think DOG). 

I love reading almost anything with the exception of Romance (well, maybe an occasional Romance) and Non-Fiction.   Literature is my favorite, along with Thrillers, Horror and Sci-Fi. 

Swap Info for Games

General Likes - I have recently been making jewelry in my spare time.  I use jewelry 'remnants' and beads so ANY bits an and pieces of jewelry (odd/broken earring or necklace, stuff with a stone missing, broken chains or pins, any beads at all) are always accepted with HUGE delight!

I'm a makeup/skin care hog - I just LOVE trying out all the colors and brands.  I love doing crafts and DIY (do-it-yourself) kits and so love anything that has do with that - beads, bits and pieces of fabric, paper, ribbon, jewelry pieces, etc.  Candles, Tarts, Boutique type bar soaps, cool ponytail holders and barrettes, coffee samples, bath items like salts and gels, extra large comfy t-shirts. 

Ok, I know it's all a bit 'girlie', but hey...what the heck.

Dislikes - Not much I don't like except vegetables :P but if I think of anything as I progress through the games and read other members profiles, I'll add stuff.
