About Me



Proud to be a nurse!

I'm an independent voter

I actually wear the jewelry I get out of gumball machines

Still working on understanding the theory of relativity

Those who live with me find glitter in strange places

I believe that wine and cheese is a food group

If you remember my name is spelled with an 'i', you earn bonus points

My Interests

I'd like to meet:



Lots of beings...Yoko Ono for starters :) I once met Charlie Duke (the astronaut)...I shook the hand of one of only twelve men who have WALKED ON THE MOON!
