About Me

I Have No Apologies. My cynicism and wit oftentime get me in trouble. I have a problem with authority and always think of the best comebacks a day after I need to use it. I get in trouble for laughing too loud and breaking out in sudden dance in the strangest places. I accept the fact that I am slightly off-kilter and am completely comfortable with that fact. Go Me.
