My name is Lisa, better known to you as madmom4. I ran into A_Mont one day and basically followed him to #Wonderland and haven't left since. Oh I leave occasionally, but whenever I log on to IRC I always am sure to /join #Wonderland. It's a great place and everyone has been so friendly and nary a LURKER (a pet peeve of mine).

To answer the most frequently asked questions in a chat room A/S/L - I am almost 41 year old, married mother of 4 in a small town in Ohio. I am married to a wonderful man who puts up with my chatting and pretends to be interested in whatever bit of news or chat I have to share with him (he tends to get a far off look in his eyes though) and says "yes" and nods at all the appropriate times. We have 4 children between us...2 girls and 2 boys. The oldest is a 19 year old college student named Lindsey, majoring in elementary education. She too used to chat before she got busy with a real life, education, job and a boyfriend...wow..how do us mothers that work outside of the home EVER find time to chat? We also have a 15 year old son Patrick who's interests include Girls, video games, pc games and TV and that's about it, a daughter named Meghan who is 13 and as sweet as can be and always trying to please everyone, she likes to read, play her flute and cook. Then there is Casey, he is 11 1/2, plays the drums and his hobbies include drums, drum lessons, debating (he likes to argue with everyone about anything), video games and causing his mother gray hair.

Another frequently asked question is "why the nick?" For pity's sake...with 4 kids and the way I drive....it just seems to fit. Actually it depends on the day, time of the month and moon phase...I like to tell those who pvt msg me "I have rabies, only 2 more shots and the doc says I'll be good as new" That tends to make them leave in a hurry.

We have an Australian Shepherd named Joey, a bull mastiff name Bellana (yes that is a big dog, she is 3 months old and weighs 30 pounds to date) and a pain in the butt cat named Gracie..(she thinks my face is her own personal pillow). I work for an 9 physician family practice doing their dictation...(hence my ability to type fast) and I also do insurance referrals and billing.. yes..I send bills...I MUST get paid to pay for my internet service...

I also feel to the need to share with you that I am a Christian and very thankful for all that God has done for me....all the blessings, both the seen and unseen and I never hesitate to share this with anyone...so if you would like to talk about God I am all for it.

I think #Wonderland is a pretty awesome channel with many wonderful and loving people and hopefully someday...you will become one of them.

Hugs and Blessings,

madmom4/Lisa
