About Me

I am a middle school teacher in Plano, TX. I love to play sports, read, write, and most of all, LAUGH! I don't go out much, but when I do, I make the most of my time. I am always open to meeting new people.

My Interests

education, sports, sports talk radio, science, astronomy, nature, music, guitar, literature...

I'd like to meet:

I want to meet people who are confident, educated, funny, artistic, knowledgable about quirky things in life, and have a great sense of humor (or else they might not be able to handle mine). I also PLAY TENNIS and would like more people to join my group of friends in the Plano/Allen/Murphy/Wylie area. If you want to know more, look me up on A I M..

She used to live in Boulder, Colorado way back in 1994. I haven't talked to her in over 10 years. I am just curious how her life is now. Wouldn't it be just CRAZY if I eventually found her again through this web site??? Oh well...
