“Don’t try to paint your masterpiece under artificial light.”
- The Pretenders, “I Hurt You,” Isle of View, 1995

My name is Christy.  Other than that there isn’t a whole lot to know. I spend my days working for a health company (Promolife) and my free time is split between pounding on my drums, attempting to learn guitar, hanging out with my brother and trying to have a life. I also devote some time to fighting ALS, the disease that claimed my mother on May 10, 2009.

I have five children. A Labrador/Border Collie mutt named Lorado (Bader, Badimus Maximus), a Corgie/Shepherd/Something mutt named Buddy (Butters or Buddy Bear LaGoof), a golden Siamese tabby cat named Hijinx (Jinx, Jinky, Forrest Gump), a big fat gray fuzzy cat named Roxy (she accepts no nicknames except Princess), and a sweet striped kitteh named Stormer. She’s no kitty. She’s a kitteh. That one has attitude, baby.

I have a Journalism degree and an obsession with history and writing.  I love rock and roll and like just about everything else and have an almost unhealthy attachment to professional wrestling. My first big job was as the webmaster for Lita Ford, which eventually lead to running TheRunaways.com which I co-ran until August of 2008. My website antics have cooled considerably since my mom’s ALS diagnosis and death but I still pop up occasionally here and there.

I’m a restless Gemini with a bit of a wild side and I love to argue. Tell me to be the Devil’s Advocate for any conversation and I’ll run you around the block and back and smile while I’m doing it. Otherwise I’m pretty laid back and love to laugh.
