Greetings and Salutations!
Welcome to
PREBBLE.COM

 


JUST WHERE MIGHT I BE FOUND?
CHECK OUT SOME OF THESE SPOTS:

The pool... Hey, if it's over 65, give me my cell and a margarita and it's ALL GOOD!
Marfreless: Recently rediscovered this secret spot. Special friend required :-)
Grasshopper... fun, tantalizing atmosphere... supposedly like Amsterdam (sorry, can't answer that!)
Zula Restaurant, downtown -- absolutely the best steaks and service
Gatsby - for chic fun and ambience in the village
Slainte -- another great Irish pub in the heart of Downtown
The Marquis ('cause sometimes ya can't beat those college guys!)
Rich's -- the CLOSEST thing to NYC nitelife
Prague: INCREDIBLY cool place to mingle, especially when you feel like being a bitch!
Club Some/Hyperia - for those late night, after-hour experiences
Community: looking for adventure? get out on the highway... 59 that is. But try to STAY AWAY from GUNS AND FIGHTS!
Felix Mexican Restaurant - ˇcomida auténtica que esta muy deliciosa! Ask for Carlos :-) and don't forget the queso!
River Oaks Cinema for phenomenal films in one of Houston's oldest theaters.
The salon at NM... for we must look our best, dahling :-)
Le Madeleine, for its fabulous quiche and pastries.
Neiman's -- If I'm not at the pool, I'm probably pushing the plastic to the max!
My couch, watching a great movie with my cats... meeeeeow!
At the computer probably working on a website or some music mixes... Can you say "Computer Nerd?!"

 

You've finally found me! I'm glad ya'll made it.
Now have fun, and see if you can spot yourself in any of my pictures, or if any of your entries made the 80s FAVES LISTS.  For those of you who don't know me, prepare to only get a sampling of what I am all about as you explore my site! I have done so many things and gone so many places that even I don't remember them all. (Take that any way you want!)
I try to live life to the fullest, and have been fortunate enough to earn a living doing things I love. How many people can say that? My family means the world to me, and I've always taken pride in the fact that my father knew from the time he was a boy what he wanted to do, and he did it with passion, vigor and enthusiasm until the day he died.
Ironically, we chose the same fields: sports and media.

I currently coach with a USA Swimming team in Kingwood, Texas named BLUE TIDE AQUATICS, . I have also coached for such teams as Rice University, Bayou Elite, Alief Aquatic Club, and Stanford University Swim Camp, and was also the Swimming pro at River Oaks Country Club. Additionally, I work as an actress and DJ, doing commercials, TV and film. You might have seen me in the movie "Suburbia," or heard me on the air in Houston or Austin as Disc Jockey "Kacie Quinn" or "Prebble Quinn."
Wanna hear some of my work? My agency has me on their site: QUAID TALENT. Just press play! FLASH: Quaid Talent has been absorbed by Williams Talent/Millenia Models. Stay tuned for new website info.
Don't know what I look like and who to look for?
Check out my best ever
HEADSHOT or my other FAVORITE PIX.
So, you can see I am pretty diverse, but I like it that way. And, as you've probably guessed, my interests are as varied as my occupations! I am also a writer and have had several of my works included in anthologies. My first book,
Eleven Twenty-Five, was published in December 1999. It is a collection of prose from the 1989-99. For some samples of work included in Eleven Twenty-Five, you can go to my PROSE AND POETRY PAGE.
As a life-long swimmer and coach, I am also very involved in the swimming world. This is why I have decided to add my own page dedicated to
SWIMMING AND COACHING news, links and information.
And... for all you wild children of the 80's, my
RETRO RAGE PAGES are the place to go.
Turn back time and return to the age of "Just Say Yes!" with a site dedicated to your 80's favorites from Music to Movies and TV, Fashion and Language. E-mail me if you have any ideas or submissions.

Some odds and ends? I truly have a thing for alligators and kittens, and used to have a strange affinity for piranhas... guess I enjoyed that stupid 70's movie a little too much! Oh... and remember Humanoids from the Deep? I LOVED that one for some unknown reason... I collect Nagels (as in Patrick Nagel, a habit that I think was acquired from a guy I dated in the late 80's), love Escher, perfumes, and shoes.... sadly I have too many to count. I enjoy the work of David McEnery and his photos of kittens, like the one at right, and am a huge fan of Rodrigue and Blue Dog. I discovered him in New Orleans.



I also love happy faces... and, NO, this is not a recent obsession brought on by the current trend. They have been my trademark for almost ten years. In fact, my college roommate, some fellow swimmers, and I all went for tattoos back in 1992, and I proudly had a smiley inked into my left ankle. Yes, I still love it and don't regret having it done. (My mom does, though! But she hates my belly button ring even more!) This site is a smiley lover's paradise; you've just got to check it out: Smiley Land!

I hope that you have enjoyed learning a little bit about me, and that you have fun with my site. I look forward to making it an exciting experience which holds something for everyone. Thank you for visiting.
