So, you wanna know more about the creator of ♥ Cloud Nine ♥! So I will start with mentioning where I got the nickname Dandy from. It is actually a proud thing for me. I went to see the 60's band Herman's Hermits at the Lilac Festival here in Rochester on May 19th of 2002 and I got the nickname from Peter Noone himself when I met him in person after the show while getting his autograph on a couple things. I have stayed in touch with him since then and he has always called me Dandy so the name stuck. Great man. :D I have been writing poetry for a few years now, it is my favorite form of releasing emotions. It is the one thing I am proud of, that I feel is an accomplishment for myself. I was in the process of learning the guitar when I had to sell it to pay rent but I want to take it back up again as soon as I can because I miss it dearly and feel naked without it. I would eventually like to turn my poems into songs when I have a better understanding of music. :)

-Thank Yous-
-Dad-
For always being there to make life fun, making me laugh, and making me feel that I could do anything I set my mind to. Also for teaching me not to take life too seriously and how to make jokes when life has handed you so much, you think you'll never make it through.
-Mom-
For always being there to listen when I felt alone without a friend in the world. For crying with me through the rough times, for the fun times, like that concert in 2002. For just being my friend as well as my mother.
-My Husband Matt-
For standing by me no matter how much we may fight, no matter how rough things get. For telling me all the time you love me. For being supportive through all my pain, through the miscarriage, through not being able to work...the list goes on. To make it simple...you complete me. You are my life, you're the air I breathe. I love you.
