I'm a bit crazy and often have to add the caveat of '... but then again, I don't think like other people' at the end of my sentences. I am a school teacher who loves to learn almost as much as she loves to teach. I am also a computer freak and am trying to figure out the best way to demolish Vista from my computer.

Anyone who has anything interesting to say. There is nothing better than an intelligent conversation to brighten the day.

I love being with people - friends and enemies alike. I love to read, write, play board games, go hiking, bake, do graphic design, decorate, and help people out.
