About me...

Name:  Judy, HeyJude (my online alias), Juds at work (which started as a typo  made by a co-worker), Judith, Jutay, Jootie.... I'm easy, call me just about anything close and I'll answer.  Age:  I was born in 1952.  Birth order:  #5 out of 9 Family:  I have 4 sisters and 4 brothers.  Of my own family, I have two kids, Christopher age 17 and Kaili age 13.  We also have FooFoo, a bichon frise.  Home:  I grew up on a pear ranch in the Sacramento River Delta and then a dairy in Elk Grove.  I've lived all my adult life in the city of Sacramento.  Work:  For the last 30 years, I've fallen into one job or another in State government.  I have rarely gotten a job I've applied for on my own.   I've done everything from mailroom clerk, stenographer, typist in a pool, secretary, to exam planner.  I am currently a human resources person.  I hope to retire in a few years and take up a secondary career in photography.  (OK, it's nice to dream!)  Interests:  I like art, crafts, cooking, eating, theater, music, reading, family, friends, all things Keirsey,  photography, camping, and traveling.  Being one of Jehovah's Witnesses keeps me busy and puts balance in my life and perspectives, has given me the knowledge of where we are in the stream of time,  and is the source of great friendships.  Keirsey temperament:  ESTP - Artisan Promoter Comedy Performances:  Tammy & the Why-nots, Fertile Myrtle ("Mama Said (There'll Be Days Like This)"), the mad scientist/medical doctor on "The HR Zone", Rosanne Rosanna Danna.  Travels:  I've traveled to Mexico, Victoria B.C., China, Hong Kong, Macao, Hawaii, New York, and across the U.S. to Wisconsin and back on a car trip.  Pet peeves:  When people spit in public.   When I am forced to listen to a stranger's cellphone conversation ... like on the Light Rail train or on an elevator.
