About Me

I had thought of something grand and witty to insert here, but it has escaped me, which is completely normal.
I am still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up- rock star, roller derby queen, or an acrobat. Actually, I think I want to be a high school English teacher, but this requires additional education. Which means it won't be happening any time soon.

So, other than that, I'm all about camping, skiing, mountain biking, Broncos football, blue skies, summer rain, and the smell of pine trees. Reading and writing are hobbies, though I wish I spent more time doing both.

I've got two crazy dogs, my girls. They are spoiled rotten, which is how it should be.

Other than that, I am just living the life, amazed at how quickly time passes, excited for what might come next.
