Welcome to Julia's Place!

Okay...so I'm a red head.

It's true that red heads have fiery tempers...so don't mess with me. I may slap you right upside the head. I fight for what I want and I fight for the people I love, and nobody mistreats an animal or a child or a woman when I'm around.

There's a feeling of freedom in admitting that. I can draw a deep breath and say, "I'm my own person and I'm through taking crap." With my friends lined up on either side of me, I am facing down the opposition, and taking no prisoners. Nothing is getting in my way now, and I am happy I came out the other side in one piece.

I'm a true survivor. Always have been...always will be. It takes a bit of pushing to get my hackles up, but when they're up, honey, watch out. Hey! I heard that laugh! So I'm not the biggest lean, mean, fighting machine out there, but just remember...don't mess with the red head.

You may call me:

Julia
Chana Alexander
Darlin'
Sweetheart
or Love...but don't call me "baby" unless you know me in the Biblical sense.

    Going to add you today. Can I call you "hotstuff" or "firebrand"?

    Just call me "Red". If Red is taken, then firebrand.
