About Me

Hi there, you of presumed human origin who has unwittingly glanced at my profile! So, onward, about me... I'm a nerdy California native currently slummin' in paradise... AKA Normal, Illinois. I secretly love celeblogs but would never admit to it in public, although apparently I have no problem admitting it in print where it can now be held against me in a court of law. I wish I could say that my novel is coming along swimmingly, but liars are fliers and I can't afford to rent wings. I love kids and have always gravitated towards teaching, but I may or may not have any of my own. We'll see what my light bulb love finally convinces me to do. I'm very liberal politically, although I'll at least hear you out if you have an opposing view point. You better be strong in your convictions though, or I'll have you looking a hot mess when I'm through with you. After all, I am an Oakland girl- born and bred! Much love to all that deserve it, and even a few that don't. That's me through and through. :-DI edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!
