It gets funky with a subject and a predicate.

About Me

I'm a crafty reporter and a bad-ass cook. I like to ride my bicycle in skirts. I hate my crappy, nerd-mobile (honda civic). My fiance' rules. I have a nice family and a cute nephew. I work all the time, even if I'm not at work. If it weren't for stress I'd be really bored. I am unashamed that I like to drink. People think I put my foot in my mouth quite often and they are right. I think girlfriends are way harder to find that boyfriends. I could live on ice cream, but would probably be really fat and feel like crap. I wish I could be motivated to write all day long, never have any deadlines, say exactly what I want and never have to worry about getting published or paid.

My Interests

reading, writing, riding my bike, general mysteries of the universe, boys, politics zines, old vinyl records, vintage dresses and bags, music, how our government manages to function, getting paid, cats, well behaved children, warm summer days on the decks, beer, vodka, whiskey and wine
