About Me

I'm prone to injury but can't stop doing the things that get me injured. My life is ruled by my highly developed ability to procrastinate. I miss the days when children were free to be children. I find it extremely difficult to wake up without a good cup of coffee. I like words a lot, but find spelling most of them to be extremely frustrating. Sometimes I like to be silent. I generally prefer to have my fingers busy so I can often be found painting, knitting, crocheting or attempting to make something that resembles music stream forth from my banjo.I just purchased a musical saw as an aid for teaching acoustics, so I'll have to figure out how to play that too. I'd like to write a book someday.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

People capable of making eye contact. People who shake hands when meeting someone. Others who believe that the ability to sit in comfortable silence with someone is more important than being able to talk endlessly with them. People who laugh and understand me when I say things like, "maximum saunacity."

Why do I find it so difficult to finish a letter and drop it in the mailbox? I can't remember the last time I bought a stamp. That makes me very sad. About a year ago I happened to be standing in a ba...
