my life is sweet as saccharin

About Me

i used to say i was a simple, uncomplicated girl - not so sure about the simple and uncomplicated anymore. i love to laugh and have fun. making art and listening to music consume my free time. friends and family are right up there too. i am addicted to chapstick and color coordinating everything. i am 5/9ths an insomniac. i heart screenprinting, and linoleum cuts. i like aesthetically pleasing design.. especially when it has 'drippies' and splattered paint. i hate folding laundry. the talk of science and biology gets me hot.. not to mention the thought of balancing a checkbook. i usually drink tea before i go to bed.. and usually when i wake up too, though more recently i've taken to sleeping in. i am the best procrastinator, ever. one of my favorite songs is 'today was a good day.' i love teaching kids, except when they are the devil. i live in new jersey.. and couldn't be happier about it, who would have ever thought!
sometimes i pretend i'm an artist.
ps - i am in love with a boy that wears glasses, and he knows exactly how to drive me crazy. *hitched!*
