About me:
I really try to take the time to notice and appreciate the little things. People fascinate me...everybody has a story....(I swiped that from Oprah)
I'm a proud Penn State graduate and firmly believe that Joe Paterno should never retire. WE ARE.........
I LOVE my work as a School Psychologist and never plan to retire! I also love academia...and miss it...although, technically, I'm still a grad student. I've pretended to work on my research while working full-time but now I'm actually working on my research while working full-time...well, I get six weeks off in the summer....is that really full-time?
I hate complainers. The more you complain...the longer God makes you live.
Things you might be surprised to know about me:
I've been on the Oprah show.
I love the Winter X Games and want to learn how to snowboard...and how to do the half-pipe!
I auditioned for "Deal or No Deal."
I got my nose pierced last year.
I have a really hard time keeping my hair all one color.

Who I'd like to meet:
Nobody....meeting people on the internet isn't wise. I'm just here to keep in touch with friends and family.
Unless you mean 'meet in real life'? In that case, I'd like to meet Ellen Degeneres 'cause she's hilarious and she'd probably be fun to just go grab coffee with. I'd also like to meet Hannah Montana and intervene before she becomes another Brittney Spears....crazy kids! Finally, I'd like to meet the guys in the freecreditreport.com commercial...they look like nerdy hipsters who know how to have fun.
