Who is melissahead?

I am, duh.

Okay, there's an explanation on melissahead.com about where the name came from. In short, it's a derivative of "knucklehead" created by my uncle.

So let's get deep. Just who am I? Well, I'm a lifelong Jersey girl, but I've migrated closer and closer to Philly over the years. I'm married to the weirdest person I have ever met. He hides his toothbrush in hotel rooms because he fears the maid will take it and stick it up her butt or something.

I'm a graphic designer with a passion for crafting, as I'm sure you can tell from this blog. I doubt it will ever pay the bills, but it's a creative outlet that I so desperately need. I seem to only watch depressing movies involving death. I pretty much only read design magazines. And I'm obsessed with music. Favorite all time band? Belle and Sebastian. But I could go on and on about the music I love. Go ahead, ask. I dare you.

I love reading other people's blogs. It's like a peek at someone's diary, and I'm a total snoop. If I could pull off being a voyeur, I'd do it. So if you have a blog, let me know about it! But only if you're interesting.

Hi there-

This is Elizabeth, we met and Orsula and Cal's SuperBowl Bonanza. Anyway, I just looked through your website, blog, and such [I stalked you], and love your cards, etc.

And - I recently started listening to Belle & Sebastian, and am trying to decide which album to purchase from itunes...

My blog is on myspace.com/zambooka100 [I'm obviously not cool enough for Blogger] but it's not nearly as entertaining, nor do I update it as often.

<33

I was searching for business card examples for my wife when I saw your picture randomly in the google search. It brought me to your blog and I have been charmed!

Great blog, you're cool.

hey Melissahead, lol ;), i like that nn-(nickname).
i tried to comment on your yoga post but had to restart computer :O
how not coincidental that you are talking about yoga!! i have been wanting very much to get into it. there's a place here in Marlboro, i hafta call & find out how much it is. my oldest daughter Serena, 24, goes to dif yoga classes & says they are usually $15 for either an hour or 1.5 hrs, not sure. that's wayyy expensive for a gurl like me, on disability. however! maybe even twice a month, not to mention the other topic you were talking about, the Wii-Fit :) my 2nd daughter Shaina, 19 (the only one that lives w/me) has a Wii & we have discussed getting Wii Fit :) if you get a Wii-Fit based yoga will you let me know how you like it?
also read how you like to read other's journals :))) i hope you will read mine :) i JUST started it & i've already done 5 entries!!
i am going to go to your profile & "friend" you, if that's ok. i am so fired up about blogspot/bloggerspot!!! i don't even know why, lol! i DO have LJ & xangzie, but i am primed for this new community!
i tried to do a search, in the search bar at top of my site, for "pink", then "hello kitty", and i think it only looks for those things in our own journals :O how do we connect/find ppl's blogs that pertain to our interests?? my goodness, you must be thinking by now, when is this chick gonna leave me be??! i prommie i will.
OPERATION NICE tells me, today is saturday, which means nothing to a gurl like me who doesn't work, but!! in the spirit of being nice i wish you a WONDERFUL WEEKEND!!! and when the car fix place finally DOES call me, i am going to be NICE to them, NOT flip out :) i feel better already! i believe a positive attitude helps us greatly in life <3

Hi Melissa. This is Melissa. I found you through an Operation Nice, button. I almost fell off my chair when I saw your profiles. I live in Mercer County, NJ. I was never called Melissahead, but my uncle called my sister Kristahead. I love art, design, crafts (nope they don't pay the big bills for me either.)..oh, also love blogging (yet, I'm not too refined at any of it yet!) Music makes my life - I've always been a drummer. I also married the weirdest person I've ever met...oh, and we quite look alike! Nice to meet you!

Melissa
Hope you're not too creeped out!!!
