Cindy's Story

Life Long story made short: Married four times. I did the wedded "bliss" too many times before I really knew what commitment was all about. Have subsequently stayed "single" for over 20 years, keeping my last name of Orendorff. I was in the US Navy active duty (1978-1981) and also Navy Reserves (1981-1992). I have one son who also served in the US Navy (6 yrs) and now lives in Texas. I live in Texas and work for the state at an environmental agency. Have a cat and, in an attempt to regain my youth, I once owned a 1981 Corvette. If you really want to know me or what's been happening since high school, military or whatever other life phase you knew me from, you can Google me. There's truth in that saying "you can run but you can't hide." School School crushes? Oh well in junior high school it was Steve Bright...no question about it. I can still see him very clearly in my mind (and I can just imagine the difference now). He was sort of a rebel, tough guy...even wore a leather jacket. But there was a soft side to him too. In high school...Bob Mahan from the swim team. A few others but Bob was the biggie in my high school fantasies. Hmm...similar type guy as Steve from junior high. Do I see a pattern? LOL Another big crush for me was Gary Baker from Fulton Jr. High and Monroe High School. I was friends with his sister Julie, so I got to see him a lot. I used to imagine being married to him *sigh*. Ah, youth... My drama teacher, Mrs. Peterson ("enunciate, class") was one of my biggest influences! So was Mr. Eberle, my biology teacher, because he recognized that I was learning so much more outside of the classroom than I ever could inside...and he allowed me that freedom. College After a gap of MANY years, I finally went back to coll...Expand for more
ege and received a Bachelor of Science degree in Business/Information Technology in 2010. Workplace After high school I managed an apartment complex, worked in retail, answered a switchboard, then joined the US Navy (1978-1981) and stayed in Navy Reserves until 1992. Worked for the federal government in San Diego, then did desktop publishing for a large real estate/insurance brokerage firm until 1991, when I moved to Oregon. Worked as a claims adjuster for an auto insurance carrier for six years and then got hired on with the state in 1998. I managed an office, then worked on federal grants until December 2004. Developed an employer resource guide (on hiring people with disabilities) which was disseminated nationally. Then I moved on to the Oregon Dept of Transportation in 2005 and left in 2012 when I relocated to Texas. Currently employed with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality managing usage contracts for grant funded equipment. Military I joined the Navy in 1978 and went to boot camp in Orlando, Florida. I went to NTC Great Lakes to train as an Electronics Technician initially, then made a career change and went into the Aviation Maintenance Administrationman field instead. I was stationed at North Island Naval Air Station in San Diego (beautiful place). I worked at the Aircraft Intermediate Maintenance Dept there at North Island after getting off active duty I remained there as a civilian, working in the same office. I stayed in the Navy reserves and did my drills right there too. Hobbies I love music and spent time promoting live music in Salem. It's no wonder that I now live in Austin, Texas...known as the live music capital of the world! Other last names I've had: Marasa / Abercrombie / Balafas / Orendorff.
