About Me

I'm currently living in scenic Chester County. You can usually find me shuttling between my day job, working with the Sun Valley High School Marching Band, and taking night classes at Immaculata University for my Teacher Certification. I am an outgoing person, and always looking to meet new people and reconnect with the people of my past.According to the "Which Big Lebowski character are you?" quiz:

Eva Longoria, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Scarlett Johannsen, Shania Twain, Jessica Biel, and Diana Krall... ALL AT THE SAME TIME!!! Giggity Giggity..> I.F.H. MONDAY'S on FunnyOrDie.com ..>

Music:

I used to just say anything but country and rap, but I've narrowed down my dislikes to more specific categories. I do not like twangy country (I don't care that your truck died. Tell it to your local Meineke specialist) or hard-core rap (screaming inaudible shit into a mic and trying to jam as many swear words together into one big cluster-F, my friend, is not music). Major appreciation for modern rock, alternative, classic rock, classical, and jazz. (I do a killer Louis Armstrong impression with both my voice and the horn)

George Carlin

When reading the title of my blog, most likely knowing by now that he has passed away, you probably felt one of two things: (A) What a jerk!, or (B) What a genius!.  I tend to go with the latter....
