Who you callin' cootie queen, ya lint-licker!?!

About Me

I'm a nerd and I LOVE it. I met the guy of my dreams and I LOVE him too. In fact, I married him in February! I'll always be a California girl at heart, despite the imminent prospect of me making the Utah thing permanent. I taught high school math at a residential treatment facility and get to deal with all sorts of interesting things that come along with that. I tutored too, because every little bit helps and I like having more individual contact with students. Sometimes I'm surprised by how old I feel and how old I actually am. I don't believe in favorites. I'm addicted to movies. I love to laugh. I love spending weekends with great people, but hate that Monday seems to come so much faster that way. I wonder what would happen if the phrase "you break it, you buy it!" applied to hearts too... I wish my hair would grow faster. I have terrible luck (who else gets pulled over for ALMOST speeding through a school zone? another time for supposedly having stolen liscense plates? another time for supposed expired registration? none of those times did I ever actually do anything wrong! and who else gets a rock chip 3 days after having had to replace their windshield for a previous rock chip that turned into a crack after only 2 days?! I could go on and on...) ..
I made this layout by myself. PSYCH! ,

I'd like to meet:

Anyone not afraid of good times, and especially those good at creating them! Cause a day without laughter is like... umm... well it just isn't fun, ok?! lol

And I have a few questions for the big guy upstairs...

FACEBOOK ME!

Music:

It really depends on my mood... For example, I listen to: However, I don't really go for:

Movies:

i love movies in general, it really just depends on my mood at the time! Some keepers:

Television:

It's pretty much just a form of procrastination...so whatever seems amusing as I flip through! For example:

Books:

Lately all I've gotten to read are textbooks :(
But here are some I have enjoyed:

Heroes:

..I'd have to go with my Dad. He's amazing. I love him very much.

That guy who paints with his feet--talk about overcoming trials!

Anyone who has been a teacher for more than 5 years, cause getting through the first one is hard enough!

Ron, because he puts up with me every day and seems to love me in spite of myself! lol.
