I am interested in pursuing a long ago promise to myself. (No I won't tell you what it is.) Along that path I have discovered many things which interest me. These interests include, but are not limited to (in order of appearance, mind you): boobs, milk, crying to get my way, saying "NO!" as often as possible, feeling free enough to poop in my own pants, calling jerks 'jerks' to their face, airplanes, cars that go vroooooom!, very sparkley things, very loud things, especially drums, and my own singing voice in that vrooom-y car, sugar and chocolate in all their forms, and, eventually all food and culinary art, travel, especially to other cities, philosophy (if you must know, I am an idealist at heart, a pragmatist at crunch time, an existentialist in my head, and a realist when it comes to dealing with....nothing HA! Take that Sartre!), books of all shapes and sizes (even though they all seem to come in the same shape), I am a huge oenophile (and if you don't know what that means, then look it up!), all music interests me, whether or not I enjoy it is quite something else, however, performing music is by far the greatest experience to be had, second only to skydiving, (and for those of you wondering, yes, sex is next on that list) finally, I found that I am interested in teaching kids how to create chaos.
