About Me
Growing up in I.F. (International Falls, MN), my family actually lived on an island in the summer. It's true. There was no TV, which is why I fell in love with radio, I listened non-stop. We had to take a boat across the lake everytime we wanted to go into town. It was a great way to spend the summers, that is, until I started caring about what my hair looked like- all summer I sported the "wind blown" look! To this day I can make a bonnet/wind protector helmet out of any camoflauge coat, pants or vest you can throw at me.

Rude people, uncomfortable shoes and wet lettuce (I'm a big salad person and if the lettuce hasn't been properly dried, it makes the dressing watered down and the entire salad gets soggy..GROSS!)
What I do with my free time
Cook, hang with my friends and speed walk. For anyone who doesn't know what that REALLY is, you're probably saying "so what"? But for those who've witnessed how truly idiotic it looks, let's just say, "you know what I'm talking about". I get laughed at and taunted on a daily basis.
Deserted on an island? One CD, One book, One friend?
I would not bring a book because after reading it twice- I would be done with it. That being said, I'm bringing 2 CDs. Dave Matthews Band "Under the Table and Dreaming" and Hal Ketchum "Greatest Hits". One friend- Jeff.
Nicole Kidman's dad spoke out about how Keith and Nicole came up with their daughter's name, Sunday Rose. Here's the story! What do you think?
Kidman's dad reveals secret of Sunday July 09, 2008 12:00am
NICOLE Kidman's father yesterday solved the mystery behind his newborn granddaughter's name, revealing it was inspired by Australian artist Sidney Nolan's muse, Sunday Reed.
While the world's media puzzled over Kidman and her country husband Keith Urban's unusual choice of name for their baby Sunday Rose Kidman
Urban, Antony Kidman revealed he and his wife had suggested it.
"There was a lady named Sunday Reed who was a prominent patron of the arts in Victoria," Dr Kidman said from his practice in Lane Cove.
"I have read a bit about Sunday Reed and her husband John -- she was a key mover and shaker in the arts around the beginning of the century. The name Sunday struck me as being a nice name for a woman, so my wife and I mentioned it."
Sunday Reed was famous for her patronage of the arts, but also for her relationship with Sidney Nolan. Reed and her husband took part in a menage-a-trois type affair with the artist, which lasted nine years in the 1930s and resulted in Sunday becoming Nolan's muse.
The connection could be the reason behind Kidman and Urban's keen interest in a Sidney Nolan exhibition at the Art Gallery of NSW shortly before they announced the pregnancy.
The exhibition, in January, featured a quote about birth from Nolan which was scrawled across a wall. "When you are young you are given a good view of life, because of your closeness to birth," it read.
Kidman appeared mesmerised by this quote, staring at it for a long time before Keith wrote it down.
"It was among other names being mentioned but they decided that was the name they wanted," Dr Kidman said.
Urban's brother Shane could not contain his excitement as he spoke to a Sunshine Coast radio station, revealing the baby's second name was a tribute to their late grandmother Rose.
"It's a wonderful wonderful thing, I'm so, so proud," he said.
The Nashville-based country music star posted his emotive, heartfelt message on his official website, where he thanked fans for all of their "thoughts and prayers".
Kidman's Mother Janelle and sister Antonia were both introduced to the newest member of their family yesterday, having travelled to Nashville in time for Sunday Rose's highly anticipated arrival.
Having turned down all lucrative media deals, the couple are expected to release a photo of Sunday Rose soon.
Hope all the Dads had a great day! I had MANY calls to make. My bio-dad, step-dad and father-in-law. The calls are the easy part- the sending of the cards is what trips me up. I don't know about you, but I think that growing up with the ability to send emails, pay bills online and just be connected 24-7 with cell phones has made it ridiculously difficult for me to send things via regular mail. Luckily all the dads got their cards on time! It's so funny how easy it is for me to buy the card, even write a heart-felt note, address it and put a stamp on the envelope- but mailing a letter- it's like you're asking me to saddle up a horse and pony-express the stinkin' thing myself....it's something I need to work on!
