About Me

Just a farm-raised, cage-free girl living out of a minivan and suitcase all over the country, bringing literary classics to students in the 48 continental states (hopefully greater Europe soon!).When it does snow and isn't just wicked hella cold, I enjoy snowmobiling around our paintball course and trying not to hit any of our dogs. Addicted to coffee, Edward Gorey, debaucherously red wine and good conversation.
I created my own profile using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM and you should too!
