About Me

i thought it was time to update this... it's been a year and a half...

well, i moved to new orleans on july 31, 2006. i'd live in atlanta all of my life and needed a new environment, i guess. new orleans is amazing. i love and miss everyone back home- and it will always be home- but the cities don't compare... music is my life. reading used to be one of my favorite past times. i love to read, but since i moved, exploring this city is one of my new favorite things to do. i have the greatest people in the whole world in my life, and i'm incredibly grateful for it. i love meeting new people; i love to travel; i love to talk and to listen; i love autumn; i love listening to music; i love my family; i love the mountains; i love long car rides; i love coffee shops; i love my friends; i love augusten burroughs memoirs; i love early 1900's architecture; i love the beach; and tons more... those are just some of my favorites- in no particular order.
