About Me

Loving my incredible husband (some of us REALLY upgrade the 2nd time) & our cool, quirky kids- that IS my life. A few more things that bring me joy are- my extended fam,our fat ass tabby cat, my mutt, coffee, National Public Radio, writing, reading,art, plays,Broadway, traveling, Cheese Pizza (thin crust, folded), NYC (especially Brooklyn), Cadbury Eggs, The Epsicopal Church, prayer cards, rosaries, sex, Jeeps, vodka tonics, (sex in Jeeps after too many vodka tonics), people who get to the point, and keepin it real. MY CAUSES- Animal Rights, ASPCA & The Matthew Shepard Foundation. My dislikes-well, I could go on forever-but I'll keep it brief here with the top 2- mornings & pokey drivers. The combination of the 2 is enough to give me a stroke.

Keeping my self-esteem in check.
