About Me

  • I am a native of suburban Detroit.  Then I spent 9 years of my life living in the south and completely out of my element.  Then I moved to DC for two years, and now I am back in the south which was always awkward for me, and after leaving for some time, I feel like I have now landed on another planet.
  • I have two young kids and a teenage stepson 
  • I have no formal writing training, which is PAINFULLY obvious.  English is my first language, but from the looks of my writing it appears to be my fifth.  
  • I have an unhealthy obsession with Jon Stewart and the Kardashian's
  • I have a super-human ability to take any conversation and relate it to an episode of Friends.
  • I DESPISE laundry, cleaning and cooking.
  • I love beer!
  • I do like crafts, being outside and TV.  And taking pictures.  I am not a photographer, I just don't have an eye for it.  Nevertheless, I always have my camera.
  • I have been told I am a good story teller.  I think that only translates in person because my stories often involve flailing hand gestures and accents.  But I'll do my best.
  • I have a major LOVE/HATE relationship with running. 
  • Most of my days, my main goal is to get a shower.
