About Me

"The eyes are not responsible when the mind does the seeing." - Publilius Syrus

» Behind the lens , away from asphalt/ concrete & scooter riding are good forms of mental defragging…yoga more so.
» Curiously fascinated by midgets, monkeys & Muppets.
» Humor is a necessity in life. Laugh with me...laugh at me.
» I sing (horribly) while driving, showering, scootering, grass mowing, elevator riding, grocery shopping, with my parrot...you get the idea.
» I’m a dessert snob.
» Becoming an Interpreter is why I get up in the morning...but this doesn’t totally define who I am.
» Lucid dreamer, light snorer, cuddle junkie & occasional drooler.
» I miss my Aunt Donna & my Oma terribly.
» I collect foreign Sign Language dictionaries.
» The sounds of burping and farting make me giggle like a 3rd grader.
» I'd like to buy an RV & drive alllllll over the country.
» I want to make a difference!
