Ginger's Story

Life Life keeps taking me in these full circles where I end up where I once started. It is so interesting. I guess you have to be me to really understand. I've had some serious hardships/losses in the last few years, but they are now a thing of the past as we have a new addition to the family. His name is Nicholas and he is now 16 months old and a joy for all of us. Chris and I are now working on our 18th year of marriage! Wow. Like I said before, it's just great to be with my soul mate. Our daughter, Alyssa, is growing more beautiful by the day and growing up FAST. She is now in middle school and learning all the nuances of that. She is an awesome big sister and her brother adores her. Still don't have a yard finished at our house. We've had enough of this separate living and are ready to make plans to get us all on the west side of the mountains since I won't be leaving my job at the UWPD anytime soon. We're down to one cat now. Our prcious Jazmin died last year and it was devastating. But, life goes on. We still miss her dearly. Funny how those little fur babies become such a vital part of our lives. I'm sure it won't be long before Xanadu joins her then we'll have to think about getting another fur baby or two. That's it in a nutshell. Send me a message anytime. I love to chat. College Guess I should actually write something now, huh? Where DOES the time go? I went to college at the University ...Expand for more
of Washington, between 1988 and 1993, when I graduated with two BA degrees. One in Psychology and one in Anthropology. I loved going to school here so much that I work here now! See work... Workplace What do you want to know? Well, it doesn't matter, because I get to decide what I write. Ha ha. I am presently a Police Detective with the University of Washington Police Department. That's in Seattle, WA. And, YES, we are REAL police for those of you who were wondering. I carry a 40cal. semi-auto Sig Sauer and have the badge to go with it. :-D I sincerely doubt anyone I went to school with would have thought that this is what I would end up doing. I didn't think so either, but now cannot evem IMAGINE doing anything else. I positively love my job. I've been at this job since May of 2000. Spent a year and half on patrol, a year and a half as Crime Prevention Officer, another year and a half on patrol, then finally got the Detective position. It's been a very good fit, though I do miss pulling people over and writing those traffic tickets! One of my most exciting adventures was getting trained in Special Protection and then picking up Madeleine Albright at the SEATAC airport and being part of her security detail while she was here for the Commencement Ceremonies, 2002 (or was that '03? I can't remember.) I'm going to end this hear so I don't bore anyone to tears. You want to know more, you have to contact me.
