About Me

The summer of 2006 was the best summer of my life- traveled all over the world. Now I am back to a real job and trying to cope with getting up early every morning and only getting so much vacation time. 2 weeks? How do people do it?

Looking forward to a special summer this year too- I will be marrying Pete on Nantucket island the first week in June. I'm very excited about this step in my life.


By the way, the lower half of "my friends" is reserved as "free ad space" of sorts- places, bands, celebs that I think are cool- i.e. i don't really know Rupert, but he rocks. And I don't know Paolo Nutini, but I love him. And I am not a speed death metal fan... at all... but the MercyKill guys are exceptionally talented musicians and cool dudes (OK, I kinda know a couple of them).

World travels
