My name is melissa* and i live in california. i work for exxon mobil and DCH. I truly enjoy both jobs, although my passions are music, dance, art of many different forms including the afore mentioned, painting, cooking of course, writing, polymer clay sculpting, film, acting, and singing. I actively participate in all of the above except for film making, although i appreciate it very much. I love to watch movies as my husband and i spend a lot of time and money seeing, buying, renting etc. He and I both attend church avidly, and play and sing on the worship band every sunday. He plays lead guitar primarily, and plays bass from time to time when we switch around. I play both bass and keys primarily, as i switch more often. He is more needed as the lead guitarist, and when i am on bass no one plays keys because its not as necessary. Rude people bug me, especially rude drivers. I try to be courteous, although im sure you all can agree with me that when someone is rude to you its so easy to be rude back, but God gives me the grace and patients to get through the day driving back and forth to work.
