About Me

Hope is great, we need caffeine.
I'm an artist, a muse, a dreamer and crazy cat lady. Most people don't know how to handle me, to that I say - just watch, something interesting is about to happen.
By day, I'm a mild mannered reporter-in-training. The rest of the time I like to pretend I'm out saving the world (or destroying it). I also throw myself tea parties and think it'd be fun to live Marie Antoinette's life for one day. I love playing the violin, horseback riding, sewing and dancing (recently got into belly dancing). If being a TV reporter doesn't pan out, I think I'd like to be a burlesque performer.
I've been a nationally syndicated talk show host, proprietor of a goth/industrial night club, graced the pages of magazines and plastered on billboards and got engaged - all in this life time! Where I'm going next is up to the hands of fate, but I'll be having a ball while doing it.
I volunteer with the Heroes Alliance - an amazing group of people who work hard to be every day real heroes. You don't have to wear spandex to do good in this world, just try to make a difference.

Disconnected

I've been using this word a lot lately, and it pretty much describes how I feel since I moved to Mobile. Once work started up, I really haven't had any time to dwell on things, and adversely, spend ti...

On road rage and driving

I was driving home today, on the nasty mucky interstate, when some jackass in a beat up sedan decided to cut me off. So, I naturally slam on my breaks to avoid hitting him, and figure about going on m...
