About Me

I'm a dancer and paralegal, considering law school. I recently competed in ballroom (latin) dancing competitions and I'm looking for a new partner so I can do it again soon! Ooh... and I am now teaching Zumba!Generally, I'm pretty laid back. I am a huge animal lover. I love to people watch, singing and dancing, and think Tivo is the greatest thing ever. I have become obsessed with salsa dancing. On TV: The Simpsons, Smallville, Family Guy and Nip/Tuck. Whose Line Is It Anyway makes me pee my pants. I hate reality TV shows (well...unless they are dance related) and roller coasters. I love to travel and haven't done nearly enough of it. In my spare time, I write poetry, make jewelry, cook and bake, and shop for shoes (I have a problem). I love sushi, well...generally all food! I wish I was feeling wittier so I could write something sparkling and cool...Consider this a work in progress. I will work on it when I am more inspired...

Sign of the Apocalypse
