Things I Dislike:
I don't like when people are mean, self absorbed, unhappy about life and their circumstances, or are dishonest. Grocery shopping & shoe shopping, cooked spinach, and I'm having a hard time with this one because I'd like to think I'm pretty easy going.

Tuesdays with Morrie, The Chronicles of Narnia, Harry Potter, The Grapes of Wrath

A Few Interesting Things About Me:
I raised a few raccoons as pets when I was younger.
I LOVE animals and always wanted to be a veterinarian, but decided that C's in college Biology and Chemistry weren't going to help me get there.
I want more than anything to be able to sing and be artistic and crafty.
I talk way too fast. . .oh wait, you already knew that one.
It took me 26 years to figure it out, but I want to be a teacher. . . I'm working on doing something part-time at some local proprietary colleges.
In recent years, I find it a habit to use ". . ." way too much.
I'd love to vacation in Australia.
I want to be more domestic by being a better cook and baker.
I have a Master's Degree in Business and have yet to figure out what I want to do with it.

Now it's your turn!
