About Veronica

I’m originally from the big, bad town of Earlimart, where the dogs roam free and so does the Elote Man.  That’s the Corn Man, for those of you non-Spanish speaking folk. Mmm… elotes. I moved to Bakersfield when I realized I was working, going to school, and hanging out here only to return to Delano to sleep. I’ve now been here for 7 years and find it overwhelming that Target is now so close to me.
 
My mom raised my 4 younger siblings and me all by her lonesome. My dad went out for cigarettes one day when I was two years old and never returned, which was strange because he didn’t smoke. I met him again when I was 23 years old and it was anything but a happy Montel reunion.
 
I love watching all kinds of movies. Netflix is my friend. I also love to read but don’t get to read as much as I once did. However, I do feel all intelligent-like now since I joined an online MySpace book discussion group, co-founded by fellow Bakotopian, Twinkie!
 
I’m dating a younger man and he’s the sweetest, kindest person in my life. He took me to watch Shrek 2 on our first date. Yup, he’s awesome! I love that I can completely be myself around him and he still likes me. He’s always so willing to please me, even going with us to see Hair when he didn’t really want to. Either that or he’s afraid of me.
 
I don’t sing but I do dance, barely enough to avoid looking like a total spaz. Chances are if you heard me sing though, you were accompanying me in a drunken debauchery in Cabo. Good times. I have come to terms with the fact that I am an introvert and fully accept being one. 
 
 I still don’t know what I want to be when I grow up and that’s okay with me.
 
Three questions that absolutely annoy me: When are you going to get married? When are you going to have kids? When are you going back for your Master’s degree? They begin getting annoying after the 100th time asked. And if you really want to push me over the edge, add “ma’am” to the end of each question.
 

And lastly, can I just profess my love for Bakotopia.com? I’ve met people here that I would probably have never had the opportunity of meeting. Oh, and I have a Bakotopia t-shirt, which makes me an official member of Matt’s Bakotopia Motley crew, because I said so. Yeah! I just love that you get to know people on a more personal level as you read about their lives on their blogs. Bakotopia rocks my socks!

[You may be asking yourself, why the boxing kitty? Well, she reveals the aggressive woman that lives within me. And why HappyFeet? Simple, I love to dance. Well, that and I look like a penguin. Or maybe I'm just shaped like one? hmm...]
