About Me

I wish I was enjoying the best part of being an educator: SUMMER VACATION... :(
..

I'd like to meet:

People from my past. I also want to keep in touch with my former students (AKA my favorite band geeks)! Just add me and shut up about it.... :0)

Music:

I listen to almost everything, but my favorite group is Counting Crows.

Movies:

I like movies that aren't so mainstream... But don't ask me to see a movie based on a cartoon or I won't be your buddy anymore!

Television:

THE OFFICE. I also love Flavor of Love, COPS, My Name Is Earl, Jackass, The Soup, Antiques Roadshow, A&E Biography, Arrested Development, Best Week Ever, Animal Cops...But I really don't watch that much TV, I swear!

Books:

I am attempting to read (and re-read) all of the "classics".

My Blog

I hate...

... liars and theives.  ...
