I am the dope in the middle!

My name is Heather Malone-Bogle and I am a 35 year old Creative/Marketing Specialist. I live in the Mountains of Western Carolina. I am married and have no children and no immediate plans for any. I do have a horse and 3 cats. I all live in a house on a small Mountain with a great view...except for the horse (she actually has a better view). I drive a Red 2000 Celica GTS and I love it! I am a geek at heart though and I never truly grown up..in fact I am pretty sure I am regressing. This page is always "In Progress" and the same goes for me!

Politics

Needless to say I am a Democrat...more later when it looks less likely I can be thrown into liberal re-education camp but this pretty much says it all.

Music

I tend to lean towards Alternative and just plain strange. I really enjoy alot of different stuff....

I have an iPod so I can carry around my whole collection with me...

Getting alot of play right now:

Ben Folds and the Ben Fold Five
Jason Mraz
Keane
Aqualung
Miles Davis
The OC #4
The Killers
Napoleon Dynamite Sountrack
Garden State Soundtrack
Kasabian
Louis XVI
Modest Mouse
TMBG

Cats

We have three cats, all rescues...two adopted from a Petsmart and one I rescued starving in a dumpster. The are named Merlin and Morgana (black, sister and brother) and Elmo (big fat neurotic orange tabby).
