Greetings From Maine
Posted: 30 Aug 2013 16:24
I thought it was probably time I introduced myself since I've been hanging out here for months now.
My name is Carrie and I'm from southern Maine. I own a pet care company that I started 11 years ago after deciding to leave a highly stressful management position at a corporate company. I completely burned myself out and needed a life change. I'm now the happiest I've been in a long time! I have 2 dogs, a black Pug named Duncan and a French Bulldog named Honey who pretty much go everywhere with me.
I've been a fan of the Pups since the very first time I heard All The Same on the radio. I remember going home and searching the lyrics on the Internet to find out who the band was and I've been hooked ever since. I'm not sure why it took me so long to join you guys on the forum. You have all been so welcoming from the beginning! Emma has even inspired me to finally buy a bass guitar and learn how to play. Something I've been wanting to do for almost 15 years now!
A few things about me; I love alternative music! Of course, the SP are my fave, but I also love Alice In Chains, Foo Fighters, Shinedown, 30 Seconds To Mars, Imagine Dragons, Fuel, Sevendust, Jimmy Eat World, Silversun Pickups, "The band that shall not be named", Linkin Park, Fall Out Boy, Hoobastank, Puddle of Mudd...I could go on forever!
I'm a fan of all the New England sports teams, especially the Red Sox and I LOVE anything scary or Halloween related. Horror movies, Ghost Hunters, HHN in Orlando, and American Horror Story to name a few. I'm also a huge movie buff and could pretty much quote every line from any John Hughes movie from the 80's as well as some favorites from the 90's that I've watched more times than I can count. Some of you are probably too young to even know who John Hughes is but if you get a chance, check out The Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles or Ferris Bueller's Day Off. You won't be disappointed.
I think that's it for now. I'm hoping to connect with some of you in the future, including my Maine peeps and those of you who will be at the Ritz show in Tampa. Thanks again for being so inviting to us newbies on here!
