Ok lets do this!

Where do I start? Well I guess with saying a bit about me............. as far as people go I'm pretty much an oxymoron. I'm a huge kid at heart, I mean I worked (well still work but only seasonally) at the happiest place on earth DISNEY WORLD! I have since college. I love working there but unless I got on the management track I couldn't really make a living doing it. So after college.....side note I went to the University of Central Florida GO KNIGHTS!......I went to the police academy and now I work as a deputy for a sheriff's office. And although its totally different from Disney I love doing it. Every time I step into my car aka my office lol I feel like I make a difference. It sounds stupid, and believe me I've been to some pretty stupid calls, but for the big picture me being at work means I can make someone safe!
That was kinda a random pile of facts I know so ready for some more. I'm engaged to an amazing guy named Ben. As far as fiancees go he's pretty much the best! He's a deputy also. We work on different sides of the county but on the same days so on our in car computers I can kinda make sure hes safe. Ok that sounds creepy stalker but I promise I don't check all his calls all day long to see whats hes doing. I can just see if he get a dangerous call and make sure hes safe. He's also trying out for our county's SWAT team and he did really well so now were playing the waiting game to see if he gets a spot. (He doesn't officially have enough time in the agency to make the team without some special permission but everyone says he did amazingly at the tryouts so either way its a great foot in the door.)
If I'm not working I'm wedding planning. Were just under a year out and I am really proud at what I have done so far. I have the church, the reception site, the food, the invitations, the save the dates (almost), the dress, the rehearsal dinner location, Ben picked out his ring, and the photographer! Phew good start right? Pictures and details to follow!
I collect special pets. By that I mean my cat, Addie, thinks shes a dog and my 50lb dog, Knightro, believes hes a person. I got Addie after my mom found her in the street outside of her work. Her leg was broken, her other leg was broken and healed, plus she was leaking which is my scientific term for the tissue that was coming out her behind due to the fact she was thrown out of a car. Mom who has a soft spot for animals, a trait I inherited, nursed her back to health and I took her in when she was about 3 months old. Oh and she has the feline HIV (I didn't know cats could get HIV but apparently they can) cause we think her momma was a hooker. Knightro had it a bit easier. We, and by we I mean Ben, found him at the Tampa ASPCA about a year ago and he's been ours even since.
I am a pretty big tomboy but being in a uniform all day has brought out my girlie side. I get my nails and hair done to make me feel a bit girlie in a male dominated profession. I also love me some Coach, but what girl doesn't! I want better style sense but a limited pay check and loss of my personal stylist and bff, Jenna C, to New York makes it difficult. Jenna C gets an initial because my sister is a Jenna also. I really miss JC. I think everyone gets a one in a million friend that gets you no matter what, that you can spend all day doing nothing with and its the best day of your life. JC is that for me and I miss her terribly! Speaking of MIA bff's my other bestie is in Washington DC. Becca has known me since 9th grade. We graduated the same year, went to the same college, joined the same sorority, then she went DC to be all important lol! The three of us were super close in college and I hate we all live so far apart but I'm so proud of them because they are really doing well.
I think that's a pretty good background! Or start :-)
