About Me

There is only one thing in this world that I hate...SUV's. I hated them before the accident, and afterwards I really, really wish they would disappear along with their rude, spiteful owners.I almost hate math. How I ended up in a job that requires math on a daily basis I'll never know.At the moment I'm in the process of planning a round the world trip set to begin in November of 2007.My latest obsession is learning more bellydance. Eventually I want to add fire dancing to that...but that's quite a ways off.

Plans change...

Instead of starting my trip in Central America I'll be flying to India in November for the yoga course. Afterwards I'll check out the rest of the country and then make my way to SEA, down to Indonisi...

Decision made
