Taking care of today....tomorrow

About Me

Not a fan of pockets, PDAs, keys, wallets, watches or coins of any kind. I am constantly on the look out for peace and quiet. I enjoy nodding in approval, shaking my fist at stupidity and using words like Jeez and Dang.I like gargling and q-tips, dry towels and other people's bathrooms. I like to complain about reality TV and poke fun at the morbidly religious.
