Dumped her. Just rid her from my life completely, and there's no way I could see playing in a band with her. That had a lot to do with it, plus, I thought she was lazy."

She played on Ozma, Bullhead, Eggnog, the Your Choice Live Series album, and parts of Houdini. Some believe she didn't actually play any bass at all on Houdini, the band is tight lipped about that though.
