I am a writer who works days at a British tea room.
I'm married to Sean (see below) who is pretty much the coolest person ever. period.
If you send me a note, or card, or e-mail with spelling and grammatical errors in it, I'm going to notice. But I won't say anything. And I will intentionally add some errors to my notes, or cards, or e-mails back to you. I have no idea why I do it. But I feel like it makes me look like a "square" to always use the correct verbiage. You know what else makes you look like a square? Using the term "square."
I would consider myself a connoisseur of pickles.
I love how hyper I get when I eat a Fun Dip.
I enjoy using visual aids, especially ones I drew.
I think cheese should have its own food group.
My current addiction: knitting.
I had a childhood crush on Dick Van Dyke.
Smooth jazz (not REAL jazz) makes me want to kill someone. Seriously.
I spend a lot of time analyzing dreams I've had.
Any song by the band Travis makes me happy.
I highly dislike people "stealing my thunder."
Whenever something gets boycotted, I automatically want to try it.
I think life is too short not to laugh as hard as you want, even if you look dumb.
I still haven't found what I'm looking for.
Quotable: So much of what I see in life reminds me of something I read in a book when shouldn't it be the other way around?
Girl, I'm sooo excited I can't even stand it. ANy helpful hints of traveling would be great. How are you??? I'm still at MAC world.... ya. Anyhoo, great to hear from you. ANd yes love, I will be having many a strongbow for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
