Get off your ass and RUN!

About Me

I have a wonderful, talented, dramatic, beautiful, intelligent daughter, Jasmyn. Jasmyn and I love to travel! She has been to Disney World 6 times and she is only 9 years old! I hope Deb can get some good prices on tickets this year! In the summer time, I love to run outside while Jasmyn rides her bike. I got a new bike for Christmas! Lauren and I are training for a 1/2 marathon at the end of May (13 miles)! I am running for an hour straight right now, I have to get up to 3 hours of straight running! HOLY CRAP is right! I love to surround myself with people that are healthy and athletic- that way we can run our ass off, then pig out at night:)! My favorite season- summer! I love to be outside when it is warm, going to the Farmer's Market EVERY Saturday, going to Concerts on the Square, Jazz at 5pm, walking State St., having barbecues at my house, drinking on my porch...I could go on and on. I have my Master's degree in Social Work (2005). This is a VERY stressful career path if anyone is interested. I investigate child abuse and neglect. I don't know if I will make this my career yet...I always dreamed of working in a big city in an office overlooking the people, cabs, and creators below me.

My Interests

I am very political and love to debate. I despise George W. Bush! I could sit for hours with a good cuppa joe and talk. I am a work-out freak like my best friend, Lauren. I also love to travel with Jasmyn to Disney World:).

I'd like to meet:

OPRAH!

Television:
